    Windows 10 - OEM key not present in the firmware


    Hi guys,


    I got a new HP ProBook 450 G7 computer and tried a Linux OS on it first and decided to come back to Windows. I wasn't able to activate windows and got the error 0x803fa067 when I went ahead and installed Windows 10.


    I tried to see what's going on with ShowKeyPlusand got OEM key not present in firmwarefrom it. Plus I get an empty result after entering wmic path softwarelicensingservice get OA3xOriginalProductKey in the Power Shell as well. What can I do to resolve this?


    I installed Windows 10 Home with the key I got from ShowKeyPlus.

    :)

  2. oem key not present in firmware?

    Hi Nabiel,

    I am Sumit, an Independent Advisor and a 3 year Windows Insider MVP here to help.

    OEM key is present in the firmware if the PC came preinstalled with Windows 10. If you bought the license separately, this is expected.

    Hope that helps.

    my windows 10 oem didn't come with a product key

    Dude, go to Newegg right now and read the questions and answers tab on Windows 10 OEM. The OEM copies that are listed there DO in fact, come on an optical disc. The flash drive ONLY comes on Retail copies.
