So I was one of those people who had purchase Windows 8 online for $40 when it came out. Before I updated my Intel i3 2120 to an i5 3570k, my PC was running Windows 8.1 Update 1. As it turns out when I fired up my PC with it's new CPU, it asked me to activate Windows 8.1 Pro. I was not so worried at first, although it had been a while since Windows 8's official launch. Looking through my Outlook mail I couldn't find a single email regarding the purchase, then I thought to check my dad's account because I was considered a minor, yeah still no email verifying purchase. Decided to look at the Microsoft Store Website, both my account and my dad's account have no purchase history or license key information.
Now i'm stumped, really.. I could call Microsoft Customer service, but in past use I have found them to be rude and informal always redirecting me to different departments. If you ask, yes I have Binged for answers to my question, but all the results were unrelated to my case. Care to help please?
