Activation issue with ASC
« on: March 13, 2018, 12:01:42 am »
When I attempt to activate my computer in ASC it states I am running window 8 when in fact I am running Windoes 10 Pro.  Is there a way to correct this?
Thanks

Have you allways run Windows 10 Pro on that PC?
Does Windows System Informations state your OS is Windows 10 Pro or Windows 8?

Yes, since I owned it. It was a refurbished PC. Cannot remember if it initially had windows 7 or 8. I purchased it and then downloaded Windows 10 pro when it was first offered for free.  It is definiteIy windows 10 Pro. Loads as such and system info confirms this. I have had it for about a year and a half and it has been almost flawless. I am just concerned about what updates will get loaded from Arturia.  I notified them as well. No phone number unfortunately.

UPDATE- Just realized I installed the software that was 10.8 but it had the Apple icon next to it. I never even noticed it. The one below has the windows icon and show 7+. I thought that was for windows 7 only.  I assume when I get home tonight I can uninstall the software and re-install the correct one. Please confirm.
Thanks Rich

Yes install ASC for Windows 7+.

Windows system information should show which OS version you have installed.
Just in case: OS version and machine name is 2 different things.

FYI - I'm not from Arturia. I only tell you, what i would look for and do.

Let's hear how it turns out.
