Windows Central Question

I recovered my computer from a fatal crash and lost my reservation.

A serious problem with my hard disk forced me to restore my computer to factory-defaults. Once I re-installed Windows 8, ran all updates, upgraded to Windows 8.1 and ran all updates again, the Win10 reservation Icon did not show up. I had already reserved W10 on this very same PC before the crash, but I have no clue on how to proceed now.

I have checked that the critical updates are installed (KB3035583 and KB2919355). The GWX folder on System 32 exists and all files are there. I've ran several scripts that helped some friends fix that problem, with no success.

What do I do?
