    Hi Nawzil

     

    Many thanks for taking the time out to reply to my post.

     

    I was working in a virtual environment so that version had not changed in anyway. However since posting here and raising it in the Insider Preview Feedback Hub it resolved itself and activation was resumed. Perhaps someone somewhere in Microsoft world looked into it and fixed it :-)

    Kind regards,
