On my Windows 10 Today I got this message says that my windows license will expire soon and I have to go to settings to activate when I go to settings, activation, There is a button that says activate but nothing happens when I press it. It also gives me the option to change the product key but I don't have one since I upgraded to Win10 from Win 8.1 through the " Upgrade to Windows 10 notification reservation icon in the bottom toolbar".
