You can update to Windows 10

You should be able to reactivate it as the same license key is used for Windows 8 and 8.1. It'll only be a problem if you changed versions. If you had Windows 8 Single Language and then upgraded to Windows 8.1 Professional, you need a new key either by upgrading the existing one or by purchasing a new one.

This shouldn't happen if you downloaded the correct windows 8.1upgrade. I can only assume you downloaded a different version. The simple answer would be to reformat the computer and then reinstall the original windows 8 or better still do a free upgrade to windows 10
