Just as an item of interest, the new Win 10 Dell desktop machine I bought to run my CNC router table doesn't even have a Windows key sticker on the case.

They haven't come with stickers in years since 8 really.

I imagine this is what is being referred to. It was a pretty big deal.

Regardless, you started off helpful in the last thread and then closer to release and after your replies have pretty much been snarky and non-helpful. I don't expect you to be the resident Microsoft Support guy, and I understand getting a bit defensive about your company and becoming annoyed, but perhaps you should thoughtfully prove people wrong if you're going to talk about these things at all.

In his defense people have started posting all sorts of tin foily poo poo copied straight from Reddit.

I'm starting to feel like MS set it up this way so people would have to shell out for Server to have a machine that doesn't reboot itself all the time. This poo poo is bananas

Don't assume grand conspiracy, where simple incompetence makes more sense.
