Hi, Dell uses OEM (original equipment manufacturers) versions of Windows and they don't "expire".  Unless you re-installed Windows at some point, and didn't use the Dell disks for the installation, I highly doubt that message is legitimate, unless you didn't activate Windows. It could be that you never went through the Activation sequence when you started up that system, maybe because you weren't connected to the internet at that time?  Check out this video on how to resolve that error if you never activated Windows.   Let me know if this helps. Todd
Hello. I have a problem. I purchased an Inspiron 11 almost 8 months ago and today i got a message that my windows are expiring on the 17th and that i should enter a new product key. Any ideas how to solve this issue? Thank you in advance!
Windows 8.1 re-activation?
