  3. Activate windows after new Mainboard+CPU

    Hello Microsoft community,

    i recently installed a new mainboard and CPU and soon i got asked to activate windows by the annoying notification in the bottom right.

    now i bought a retail key which is supposed to be re-activatable but it wont let me for some reason use it anymore.

    as i learned the Key is bound to hardware but im obviously not gonna revert to my old cpu+mb is there anything i can do except for buying a new key?

    thanks in advance, regards

    New cpu+motherboard, Windows 10 Pro no longer activated.

    I upgraded my cpu and motherboard today and my windows 10 Pro is no longer activated, I had no idea switching motherboards/cpus deactivated my windows 10 upgrade. Is there anything I can do without having to spend a ridiculous 200 dollars for a new windows
    10?
