Windows 10: Activation pops up about every week after m.2 drive change

M.2 NVME windows main drive crashed with a hardware failure, forced me to buy a new M.2 drive. Installed windows 11 home with the media creation tool. Windows was activated with a sign in to my microsoft account, basically linking the account. About a week later and every other week, activate windows pops up at bottom of screen. I go into the settings and click on the trouble shooter, and it reactivates no problem. My issue is that its annoying to have this message pop up from time to time. Is there a fix?

Adapter for M.2 Drive

The adapter "steve108" listed is of the correct type.

You need one that supports a SATA M.2 drive, and the B+M slots. M.2 - Wikipedia

 

M.2 SSD not being able to boot from it, windows doesn't recognise.

Ok, this is what happened after all the comments and suggestions, @dude: Thanx for the video, my mb had non e of those settings, it had the raid/option memory gene or achi. Can only choose one or the other. @Saltgrass, my settings did point out auto and enabled the pcie x4, gen 3. I did an bios flash as suggested, because my bios was not the latest version, after a reformat the m.2 was picked up, still cant install OS onto it as it states legacy not found, removed my dvd rom from the sata port to another, and the drive was found and installed. Only issue now is that it's still not my OS drive but it at least now works and is installed, but on the Intel rst drive the obtain memory gene option to enable is greyed out, and shows as disabled. However the program lists the M.2 and it is working 100%,. I installed overwhatch onto it, it performs perfectly. But will update the intel driver tonight and see if that makes any difference. Seems the bios flash enabled the settings listed by @dude that was not present pre-flash.

So the m.2 drive works. I can game off it and install omnto it. Can not install windows on it, gene memmory is enabled, pcie x4 is on and on auto detect, Motherbaord lists all the drives connected, motherboard ahs been updated to latest bios. After flash new settings became available, m.2 is now on memmory gene enabled not achi, windows os is enabled and fast boost is enabled, intel rst is installed and lists all the ssds and the m.2, however the m.2 on memmory gene is dissabled and the option to enable is greyed out. Will update the driver as Essenbe suggested of the m.2 and see if anything changes. Thank you all for the help, I can now atleast use my m.2

 

M.2 drives

Im looking to make a full copy of the drives that are currently installed in the laptop to other drives, either M.2 or ssd, the reason im thinking M.2 is if disaster strikes and one of the drives currenlty installed fails take it out and pop in the new M.2 which will have all the data on it , does this make sense?
