Windows 10: Can't activate Windows 10 via digital licence

Hello,


Earlier this year I used the free upgrade opportunity to change my 6 year old copy of Windows 7 to Windows 10. I have since made a significant hardware change motherboard. Before the change, I made sure to tie my copy of Windows 10 to my Microsoft account so I could easily reactivate, but upon reinstalling Windows 10 on the new hardware I am told that my copy is not activated, despite logging in.


I have been through the activation settings and when troubleshooting I select "I recently changed hardware on this device". However, after selecting my PC I get the message "We can't reactivate Windows on this device. Try again later."


I have tried several times since then but I receive the same message every time. How am I supposed to reactivate my copy of Windows 10?

:)

 

windows 10 activation - licence will expire soon

There are two new entries in the Diagnostic report.

1. Activation Scenario Code:

2. ProductKey Code:

Both are blank on my PC.

My guess is 1. above relates to this VAMT Step-by-Step Scenarios (Windows 10) | Microsoft Docs - if so non-volume users won't be affected.

No idea about 2. - there are more than enougn PK entries already!... was hoping some more digital licencing stuff would come up.

Gonna have to do some more digging and testing,,,

 

digital licence for windows

ok here goes :

reactivation of windows 10 after hardware changes doesnt work.





to add I had nothing but problems since upgrading for free my wifi adaptor failed so I had to purchase another. then my ethernet port failed. so was forced into probably purchasing a new mb next step up from the failed one ( possibly because of poxy windows
10 upgrade)

Also I thought when I upgraded so called "digital licence" to win 10 I no longer needed my windows 7 disc and key so binned it.

next step was to put old motherboard which is linked to digital licence. back in and reinstall correct version of windows to match my digital licence worked windows activated! ffixxed

now to change my motherboard back to the non faulty one..... and try to reactivate...…………..!!!

windows no longer activated.... and that the message in the window when trying to
