    Hi, I have switched hdd from my old computer to a "new" computer. My old did. It started and everything is working but the license key is not working. It is windows 10 professional that is installed.I used the slmgr.vbs /dlv command and got that it is a Windows 10 pro, retail. Do I need to buy a new license key?

    :)

    Activating windows 10 0x8007000D and 0x80070520

    Hello forums,

    Currently having an issue here

    I re installed a Lenovo X1 Yoga with a Windows 10 USB - it did have Windows 10 on it from Lenovo (I assume digital license)

    Once reloaded, I cannot activate the Windows 10 with the digital license

    These are the error codes: 0x8007000D and 0x80070520

    Thanks everyone for looking,

    David
