    After upgrading motherboard cannot activate, error code 0xC004F211


    I have upgraded my mobo to the new AM5 platform. This also means new processor and memory. After this my windows 11 pro license did not want to activate with error code 0xC004F211. The troubleshooter did not yield a result and told me to get in touch with microsoft for re-activation. I cannot find a way to get in touch with microsoft, as the helpdesk number just point to the community website and I cannot talk to a warm body. What to do now to get my license re-activated?Edward

    :)

    Can't activate windows 10 after a CPU/motherboard upgrade Error Code 0xc004f211 (I am NOT buying another Windows key as a solution)

    As the title says I upgrade my CPU and Motherboard because the mobo died and now it says that windows can't activate and I get the error code 0xc004f211. I am simply not purchasing a second windows activation key as a solution.
