    Reactivating Windows 10 after Hardware Change

    Greetings everybody,

    I changed the hardware (motherboard, CPU, GPU, RAM) of my PC and I cannot reactivate my WIN 10 now.

    I had WIN 7 retail version before and I upgraded it during the free upgrade to WIN 10 years ago. Before I changed my hardware, I linked my WIndows licence to my windows account so I could reactivate it after the change, but it does not work.

    In the activation page in the settings, it shows the error code 0xC004F211, which shows that the hardware has changed. I followed the instructions of https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/20530/windows-10-reactivating-after-hardware-change,
    so I did the troubleshooting and then selected "I changed hardware on this device recently" and then selected the device I am using and click on activate, but this does not work. I only get the "We can’t reactivate Windows
    on this device. Try again later. " message.

    Any suggestions what I can do to activate my licence?

    Thanks in advance

    windows 10 reactivation after hardware change

    I just changed motherboards, and When I follow the the steps listed in the "reactivate windows 10 after hardware change" support page, it gives me the message "unable to activate windows" message after I sign in and identify my device,
    with no error code, just a subheader that says "can't activate windows 10 on this device, try again later."
