This might be the reason you're missing the Windows 10 icon.
This might be the reason you're missing the Windows 10 icon.
You set up a temporary version of Windows 10 with the correct icon, but later had to reinstall Windows 8.1 for some reason. After reinstalling and updating, the Windows 10 logo still doesn’t appear. Checking your email confirms you reserved the upgrade, which suggests it should work even without the logo. The lack of icon on other devices might be because each account uses its own profile, so the logo isn’t shared across accounts.
Activate Windows properly now. Check computer properties for the genuine version. Install all the latest updates. Then look at this helpful thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windo...65b?auth=1
I followed this tutorial to make the icon show up. I tried it on two devices and it functioned well for me. Generally, it prompts you to execute a script, which then takes some time (around 10 to 30 minutes for me) before the icon appears.

I have Windows 8.1, which appears a bit different. It shows I can change the product key. When I go to 'PC and Devices' and click 'PC Info,' it says the edition is Windows 8.1 and activation confirms Windows is active. I own the correct version, as I purchased the CD and used the product code, which is a 64-bit edition.
The command confirmed you possess the latest version that has been installed.
