Windows 10: Activation required after reset Windows 10 Home on HP Laptop

Hello,

After Resetting Windows 10 home single language on my HP laptop, the computer now says "Windows is not activated". During Reset of windows it did not asked for a key. I thought this was ok because this HP laptop should have been digitally licensed with windows 10 home single language at purchase.

Pre troubleshoot error code 0xC004F012. Post troubleshoot error code 0xc0000022. I have tried troubleshooting Option but it shows an error. Error Code: 0x803F7001. How do I locate the digital license for windows 10 home single language.? Current Windows version of my laptop was and is: Windows 10 Home. I need to activate this reset Windows 10 Home on my HP Laptop. CaciqueRico

Resetting my HP laptop

Since it is a new HP laptop and you want to reset it, instead of using the Windows 10 Reset, why not use the HP Factory Restore application, it should be located on your Start Menu - the alphabetical list - scroll down to the HP suite of apps and look
for recovery . . .

DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

 

Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

This is exactly what I'm seeing and am still investigating. I don't want to get your hopes up though, as I think you're out of luck, unfortunately. I might be too, but I'm in with a chance and here is why.

I installed my Insider copy right at the start of the program on VMWare Player where it activated with my Live account. It also upgraded to the RTM copy when it was released and is activated. So far so good.

I then downloaded the ISO using Microsoft's tool and installed a clean copy on my laptop, again logging in with my Live account, but it won't activate, just like you've seen. Reason given is that the key is blocked. However, what I'm now gonna do is image that VM onto the laptop's HDD and see if that works. It may remain activated (doubtful), require a phone activation or simply not activate at all. Let's hope it activates.

BTW, I never opted out of the insider program and am still on the Fast updates, so my OS version is currently showing as 10.0.10532, which is later than the 10.0.10240 RTM build - it did a full OS install for it.

Finally, even though you can't activate yours, you can still do the upgrade thing from W7 or W8/8.1 so you're not actually stuck, you just don't get the Insider version.
