    Can't move windows 10 pro license to new laptop

    Hi!

    I have laptop with windows 10 pro digital license connected with my Microsoft account. I bought new laptop and want to move my windows 10 license. I installed windows 10 pro. In activation options I choose Troubleshooting -> I changed hardware recently ->
    choose my old laptop in list and get "Unable to activate windows" error without specific error code.

    Is it possible to activate Windows 10 pro with digital license on new laptop?

  3. Reinstalling Windows 10 Pro on new laptop

    hi there, i previously bought Windows 10 Pro and installed it on my laptop. My laptop was stolen a day ago. I have deactivated the stolen laptop on my Microsoft account and now need to install Windows 10 Pro on my new laptop. My new laptop runs Windows
    Home currently. I have tried to upgrade through the Windows Store but it requires an activation key that I don't have. Anyone have any suggestions on how to go about installing a previously bought copy of Windows 10. I bought it through the Windows store originally.

    Windows 10 Activation Error: 0xC004F034

    Hi Greg,

    This error code is usually caused by a problem with the product key. For better assistance, we would like to clarify how you got the Windows 10 Pro? Is it supplied by a company?

    As an initial troubleshooting step, we suggest that you run the Activation troubleshooter and try activating Windows 10 Pro again. To run the Activation troubleshooter, follow these steps:

    • Click the Start button and select the Settings
      icon.
    • Choose Update & Security from the list.
    • Select Activation in the left pane of the window.
    • Click Troubleshoot.

    If your Windows 10 Pro is supplied by a company, we recommend that you get in touch with your organization's support for assistance with the activation.

    We'll be waiting to your reply.
