So I’m working along, and all of a sudden, MS Office asks me to activate my product. Never mind that it was activated months ago. So, I clicked the “Activate over the internets” button, but I got an error that said “We’re sorry, something went wrong and we can’t do this for you right now” and gave me an error code of 0xC0000010.

To the Googles!

Come to find out, if you have Windows 8 and Office 2013, and you plug in a Samsung smartphone (or tablet) and then reboot your computer, all of your MS products will be deactivated.

WHAT???

Fortunately, if you unplug it, and click the activation link, all will correct itself.

Weird. Very Weird.
