Windows 10: Activation code error 0xc0000022

My PC about a month ago messed up and ended up needing to reinstall windows 10. after re installation I had a watermark in the bottom left hand corner. I went to activate windows and entered my product key and it didn't work. I troubleshooted and came back with error "We can't reactivate windows on this device right now. You can try activating again later or go to the store and by genuine windows." 0xc0000022. I know my copy of Windows was purchased legally

Activation Error : 0xC0000022

Hi Patit,

My name is Jocelyn, an independent advisor and a fellow Windows 10 user here to help.

Please answer the following questions so we have a better idea of what might be happening:

1. Did you reinstall your Windows prior to getting the error message?

2. Where there any changes made on your computers like hardware or newly installed apps?

If none, this error is mostly caused by an access problem triggered either by a specific application or by Windows itself.

I would suggest you follow the steps provided by RajithR in the following Microsoft article and see if it works for you.

Let us know if this helps you.

Best,

Windows 10 will not activate Error code 0x803F7001

Possibly there can be the problem with Microsoft activation Server, so your Windows 10 is not activated. In this scenario, you need to wait and verify if it is the issue from Microsoft’s side. But if you are getting error code 0x803f7001, you can also try these steps:

1. Open Settings app. Then go to Update and security > Activation screen > Change product.
2. Type your Windows edition product key and click Next.
3. You’ll get We couldn’t activate Windows error message.
4. Retry steps 1-3 then type your 25-characters unique product key.
5. Wait for the process to complete, Windows 10 is activated.

Hope something helps this problem
