Without a Product Key you can't activate Windows but if you want to install Windows 10, go to the Microsoft Store and buy it using the PC that you use to post here. We have to mention the invalid status because we shouldn't be gving advice about invalid software but we are trying to help you.

Once you're installed Windows 10, it will recognise your wi-fi device and you can activate Windows online.

Windows 10 in the Microsoft website is free to download the problem is I can not get my computer or laptop to recognize that I have WiFi so that I can go to the Microsoft website and download the correct version each time I try to call Microsoft about this problem they transfer me to India and I can never understand anything that there saying that’s why I’m trying to get help on here,.... when I create my posts on here I am useing my Cellphone not another computer?.. ? Does anyone know how to download Microsoft 10 from a cell phone and transfer it to the computer system?......

You likely aren't going to be able to get your WiFi working without the valid version of Windows. You are going to have to get it on a CD/DVD/USB to install it first.

Is there anyway to do this from my cell phone and just transfer the codes from widows 10on my cell to my laptop?...

 

[webworkings]

You can't get a product key without having purchased the product.

You need the actual legit purchased version of Windows to fix this. You can ask for different things or other ways, but this is the way to fix it.

It seems to me this whole problem can be solved by the use of an ethernet cable from the laptop to the router.

Microsoft are making it more difficult to download ISOs of Windows 10. That means buying it from their site and that costs around £110 in Britih money.

Agreed. This is why I don't upgrade to 10. I miss the days of 3.1. LOL

You could try getting it through the link below, but be sure to choose the option to save it to a USB or something similar. It can't really be done on a cell or tablet though.

Phones don't have a router/modem. It is a bit different. However, whatever you are using to gain access to the internet won't make a difference, you can't download the Windows you need to a phone. You need to download it to a different device. We have both tried to explain this, and that you won't be able to use the computer as you wish until a legit registered version of Windows is installed.

There is nothing more we could do in regard to this until you get the correct version and install it, which should resolve your WiFi issue on the computer.

This thread should be merged with the one @webworkings and I have been trying to get a point across to you for a week or more. Now you say you have an iPhone and you publish an Android suggestion. Believe me, it won't work in any way at all. If you did get your mobile Windows on to a laptop, it wouldn't work and it still needs to made legitimate.

If what has already been suggested didnt work, nothing else will. Please don't start another thread - it will only be removed.

Your original post was not deleted, I merged your 2 threads as the new thread was a continuation of the original.

You are most likely not going to be able to use your iPhone to install windows on your laptop, as Saga stated the video you posted is for Android phones and is still not a good way to go. You need to use another system(friend, family, even a library system) to create the windows 10 installation media.

Good luck, as given your behavior I'd be surprised if you get any more responses.

 

[webworkings]

We have been trying to help you, but you haven't really listened. Again, what you want to do is not possible unless you have a legal copy of Windows. Until then, there is nothing that can't be done.

On top of that, this site has rules about doing anything that involves illegal copies of any software. It is not something that is allowed to be assisted with on this site.

Instead of personal attacks and insults towards people that have tried to assist you, try following what was suggested and keep your posts within the site's rules/guidelines.

Additionally, I did give you a link (in a prior post) to the free version of Windows 10 which can be downloaded and then installed on a computer.

Agreed. This is why I don't upgrade to 10. I miss the days of 3.1. LOL

You could try getting it through the link below, but be sure to choose the option to save it to a USB or something similar. It can't really be done on a cell or tablet though.

However, as also stated, you can't do this on a phone.

You would need to download it on another device (best a computer) and then either connection that computer to yours, or put it on a USB/CD/DVD and then install it on your computer.

Again, please follow the sites policies.

Oh, and yes while there is a (as I linked you to before) free copy of Windows 10 that you can get, the copy on your computer isn't that. You clearly stated (and showed in an image) that your copy is not a legal one.

Install a legal one and that should resolve your problem. Which we have stated before.

It sounds like you are doing something wrong here. You should not need any of the mentioned things to access a hotspot. It is the same as accessing any WiFi and no Windows Product Key should ever be needed.

That is if the hotspot is actually working correctly.

If it is at all possible to use your phone as a hotspot it would be done this way...


1. On the phone go into "Settings" and in the "Wireless & networks" section tap "More".

2. Now tap "Tethering & portable hotspot".

3. For "Wireless Tethering" tap "Set up WiFi hotspot"

4. On this new screen you will see options for a "Network Name", "Security", "Password" and "Network Band". You can change them or keep them as is. It is really up to you.

5. Now you need to locate the hotspot (the same way you do with any other WiFi) on your laptop.

As long as your laptop will connect to other WiFis, then it should connect to the hotspot. That is, as long as your carrier/service provider hasn't restricted the option. However it never involves anything about a Windows Product Key or anything similar.


To make sure you are trying to connect the WiFi correctly, try the following...

1. Go to "Control Panel".

2. Next go to "Network and Internet" and then "Network and Sharing".

3. Now click on "Manage Wireless Networks".

4. On this screen, remove all wireless connections by "right clicking" on it and select "Remove network" from the drop down menu.

5. After doing this, close the open windows and reboot the computer.

6. Once the computer is fully reloaded, scan for the "WiFi networks".

7. Click on the available network that you want to access and select "connect".

8. It takes a moment, but then you will be asked to give a password for your WiFi connection. Type in the password and click the "connect" button.

It should now be connected.

Another way to try it is to...

1. Go to "Settings".
2. Click on "Network & Security" and then click on "WiFi".
3. Now click "Manage known networks".
4. Select the WiFi connection you want to remove.
5. Click the "Forget" button.
6. After doing this, close the open windows and reboot the computer.
7. Once the computer is fully reloaded again go to "Settings".
8. Click on "Network & Security" and then click on "WiFi".
9. Now click "Manage known networks".
10. Click "Add a new network" and enter the network name.
11. Using the drop-down menu, select the "network security type".
12. Check the "Connect automatically" option.
13. Now check the "Connect even if the network is not broadcasting" option and click "Save".

Should nothing here help, and your laptop will connect to other WiFis, then the carrier/service provider is the problem.

If it won't connect to any WiFi, then your WiFi card in the laptop would likely be the problem and it would either have to be replaced, or you would have to get an external one that connects via USB port.

Hey,

I really like your brief answer to this post. Thanks!

I don't often do 'brief' answers. Well, except this one.

As Angeleyes hasn't been seen since March 24th, it's time to close this thread and say we shall never know if the advice given worked or not.

Is this your actual WiFi connection? Usually those xfinityhwifi things are the free connections xfinity offers for customers using other customers routers. You may not even be trying to connect to the right network.

Did this system come with Windows 7 when you bough it NEW or was this some used system you got or was Windows 7 installed at some point?

You may need to have someone in your area look at your system that knows a bit about computers to sort out your license issue.
