Question

I am struggling to get a new install of Windows 8.1 activated, are the servers down? If not what is the number for 'phone activation in England please?

Answer 1

Hello

I couldn't find any specific information indicating that the Windows 8.1 activation servers are down at the moment.

You can try phone activation. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the specific phone activation number for England. However, you can follow these steps to activate by phone:

Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

Type slui 4 and press Enter.

Select your country or region (in this case, England) and follow the on-screen instructions to get the phone number for activation.
