Any solutions? Anything I can do to atleast get my browsers back so I can atleast buy windows?
Find local Linux guru group
Get Linux on your laptop
Browse away.
Use a Linux distro for now. What's so critical about Windows?

OP, what that anon wrote was a perfectly valid statement. You just don't understand what it means to pirate Windows. You're not really helping your case here.

Download the Ubuntu installer onto a USB stick, boot your computer from the stick and just let it install itself. When it's done, it runs just like Mac OS except the dock is on the left.

I want to help my case but I've already got windows (legit) and I can't pirate another one because I can't open my browsers
>>16480424
Thanks that's actually pretty good may resort to this
>>16480432
You don't "pirate another one." You use a tool which makes Windows think that it has been activated. You could acquire this tool from another computer and bring it over on a flash drive.

Kill yourself you literal parasite. God damn I wish Australia wasn't such a socialist shit hole. The government can't do anything without fucking it up, even giving teenagers free laptops.
