can you update your windows
how do i do that
ok firstly what windows version are you on
10
you’re in@an outdated version of windows.
You can search "check for updates" in the start menu.
Ideally you need to be on the latest version of windows 10 (it's for security issues) which is why vanguard doesn't like old versions
Latest version is 22H2
this right?
check for updates
then unisntall vangaurd
by going to control panel uninstall then vanguard
okay
You need vanguard for Valorant? Why would you advise them to uninstall it? it's their anti-cheat
Yes, It may take a while to do the updates, but it will need restarting and you will need to go back to that page and check again..
okay ill do that rq
what should i do now?
f the news ain’t good
you have to reinstall a newer version of windows
..
Is the game lauching
yeah but the same thing pops up
Did you click the check for updates? sorry if that comes across rude
yeah i clicked checked for updates
Search "view your pc name" in the start menu, under the 'Windows Specifications' it will tell you what version you are on
this?
Oh my
😰
So it's not updated. Have you restarted
yeah i restarted
What happens if you try checking for updates again?
nothing
https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10 Try this instead.
:')
Is it windows 10 home?
you can check where you checked for the version
this i believe
Ohhh
Who did your PC? was it bought like that?
yea it was bought like this
atleast thats what i believe, i got it as a gift
Do you have anything on your PC you don't want to lose?
If not, you can try the media creation tool to upgrade to a newer version of windows 10, this may however want to remove applications for a clean install, there is an option to keep files, like your documents and photos
I would back anything up that you want to keep just in case
you have a problem here
do you own a USB?
you can bypass that by reinstalling windows with a usb @yvettexx but you;re going to lose everything on your pc, all pictures, all games, all apps, all videos, all downloads etc. You would need to find a means to store all of that stuff if you want to save any of it (except the games cause you would reinstall)
if you have a USB, i can help you through screenshare & vc (i've done it like 40 timesd myself)
😭
You don't need to do it through a usb, the media creation tool can do it, but it will do a clean install if asked too
won't it just give her this error
😭
No, it shouldn't that just for updating, the creation tool is essentially for reloading
but if it does, it will most likely have to be a USB :/
oh fairs my bad
I only ever used a usb
cause it saved me time
basically @yvettexx tghink of it like this, you're on the iphone 13 version of windows 10 but you're required to be on the iphone 15 version
so
u need to upgrade windows, not update
Yeahh, to be fair, it's not often I see PC's with enterprise on
I didn't know that was a thing
I had to reinstall windows like 50 times cause i was testing custom Operating systems like fox, gg, etc, and i wanted t see which gaver the lowest delay
Just a fancy smancy pro verison of pro xD
the custom os's or windows with enterprise on it 😭
Ahh, I just work in IT and it's just one method that saves the hassle of a usb
js to be sure i press accept right-
yeah, you've already agreed before 😄
The os is windows, just a different version
do i select upgrade this pc?
or the bottom one
it won't let you proceed past that if you don;t
I'd do upgrade now
yeahhh, but they're really stripped to give less delay
upgtrade now and see if it works, if it doesn't you need a usb
oh yeah
a
I did warn you that you lose everything on your pc if you don't back it up @yvettexx
No cortana or nothing
Welp, USB it is
i see
i advise you to actually send yourself stuff over discord
so you don't lose it
send yourself the things you wanna save to a bot like mee6 cause tere's no storage limit like google drive
and then you need a USb
Or upload it to google drive, you get 15GB free, as long as thats enough!
I ran out 😭
okey yeah ill do that first
before this
You do have USB/
uhh
Im not sure-
it's like a flash disk stick
is there any way i can check
Just to add to this, There is a possibility that your windows will not be activated after a reload
i have a fix for this
Like a physical USB
Awesome
i dont
is there any way to disable enterprise on your pc?
You'll need to get one, it will need to have atleast 8GB of space, id recommend 16 to be safe
if you're installing windows 10 you won't need more than 8G
You would need to downgrade
If you say so 😄
if you can help him/her with that then it's easy to install after
uhh im not sure i dont know anything abt pc's
Yeahhh Not particularly easy to do, it would be much eaiser for them to reinstall. To downgrade it requires generic windows keys and an activation key.
unfortunately @yvettexx there's a setting on your pc that prevents you from upgrading, you would need to get a usb to do it so unless you can go ouut and buy one or if your mom/dad has one, it can't be helped
oh
You can try using this key (VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T) <-- generic windows 10 pro key in the activation window... you can try this but it may not work
This is through searching "activation settings" in the start menu
it didnt work
Didn't think it would, Your going to need a USB I'm afraid
ah darn
well ty
you can get them on amazon, they're super cheap
for trying to help
ohh
sounds gooddd ill order one later on
You can get one super cheap, i tried to post a link but it got blocked by the server
Sounds good
could you send it to me in dms?
Sure
sent 🙂
tyty
i have an exe activation
that always works
to remove the watermark
would it fix it @ScrapyyCoCo @yvettexx
would it remove it permantly?
That wouldn’t fix it as it doesn’t need activating, it needs downgrading then activating
