Activation problem after upgrading from Win 7 to Win 10

OK I did the test

From OEM (bios) activated Win 7 Pro VM (to emulate a notebook) - I de-activated it by uninstalling the product key

• Turned off networking
• Upgraded to Win 10 Pro ( it asked for a key and wouldn't accept the generic Win 10 retail key - it did accept a Win 10 MAK)

Once installed

• Ran slmgr /ato and got this - as expected

Then went to Change Product key and entered the generic and got this:





So it activated locally providing DL but with this in the diag report

Code:

So we are in grace/notication period but activated

Pertinent error as noted above being




Then with WAN established it deactivated




I had to change product key again to a Win 7 OEM COA key and it then activated with a generic Win 10 OEM digital licence






Conclusion... network access is the root cause of the error (as it says on the tin) so that's what has to be established...
