Windows 10: Activate Windows watermark pops up

Since yesterday, I have encountered an issue where after about an hour or two of use a watermark pops up that says to activate windows. When I tried using the troubleshoot tool, it says "We found a Windows 10 Home digital license for this device running Windows 10 Pro. To activate using this digital license, you need to install Windows 10 Home." I tried reinstalling windows but this issue keeps occurring. How can I stop the watermark from popping up?

Activate Windows Watermark

Hi Duncan,

The Windows activation watermark is usually appearing if the activation servers detect that a device is not activated. For further help with activating your copy of Windows 10, visit this
link. If the same issue persists after performing the troubleshooting suggestions on the link, follow these steps:

• Using Cortana, type Notepad and then click on Notepad (Desktop app).
• Type the following commands in Notepad:
  • @Echo off
    
    taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
    
    explorer.exe
    
    exit
    
    
• 
  Save the file and name it as Activation.bat.
  
• 
  Change the Save as type to All files.
  
• 
  Locate the file, right-click on it and then choose Run as Administrator.
  
• 
  After running the file, restart your computer and then check if the same issue persists.

Activate Windows watermark

I keep getting the Activate Windows watermark. I have done the suggested things such as editing the regedit, creating the removal.bat file, but the watermark keeps returning.

My windows is legit, and I have had it for 3 years now. Can someone please help me?

 

Activate Windows watermark keeps popping up.

So, I've had my computer for a long time. I never had any issues with it until just recently where sometimes the Activate Windows watermark would pop up in the bottom right of my screen. I do not understand why this started happening and it's never consistent.
Most times if I just restart my computer it goes away. I just want to know why this keeps happening when I have a legitimate copy of Windows 10, why it just started happening now out of nowhere, and how I can prevent it from happening again in the future.
