I received my new PC (yay), but noticed that after changing language and region, I can't use Windows search for specific items like the link you shared. It's strange since I switched to English US everywhere I could think of. From a web search, it seems the language setting is affecting results, but all fixes tried didn't help except switching back to Hebrew, which was the original language. When I went into settings and searched there, I got a message saying "search results aren't quite ready yet." Only when I changed back to English did it work smoothly. I also tried converting everything to Hebrew, but that doesn’t suit me—I prefer English for simplicity. Any suggestions? The PC was built in a lab and originally came with Windows 10 Pro in Hebrew, but I installed English US and made it my default. After a few restarts, I finally opened a game (H1Z1 KotK) from the search bar without issues. It looks like the settings are causing the problem.

You need to figure out the steps without the installation key or disk.

After that, you won't need to provide an activation key again; it will be saved automatically.

No key required when logging in via an MS account. The installation media can be found on Microsoft's site.

To verify your connection to an MS account, open Settings and look for Account details. If you're using Windows 10 or later, you can also check the Microsoft account settings directly. Let me know if you need more help!

Great, I believe the fix was simply resetting Windows. When I returned, it was already open without a language selection, and it worked perfectly! Appreciate your confirmation that everything is saved. Thanks!
