    Get a new HDD and do a clean install of Windows 10 then copy all your data off your old HDD. With Windows 10 you wont need a KEY since you have had windows 10 on that machine Windows is activated with a digital license.

    Time to move to Windows 10, you have until December 31 2017 to upgrade to windows 10. Follow the instructions.

    This will solve your problem. Much more secure. After upgrading you can do a clean install. I t is like having a brand new machine.

    I had the same problem yesterday with the error code. Went on WU this morning and all seems to be working again on both my machines. I didn't do anything so seems Microsoft got things working.
