Windows 10: Cant Reactivate Windows 11 Pro Digital License After Unlinking Device from Microsoft Account

Hello,I currently run Windows 11 Pro on a digital license. Initially I bought an Acer PC with Windows 7 Pro CD Key on sticker in 2010. OS was upgraded for free to Windows 8 Pro and then Windows 10 Pro and finally to Windows 11 Pro.Recently, my motherboard died and I replaced the mobo and CPU. When I booted Windows, it asked me if I'm using a device listed below, and the only one listed was the same computer but with a different motherboard. I clicked no and Windows could not activate. I unlinked the device in case the Windows Activation server was seeing a duplicate of the OS, still to no av

Link Microsoft Account to Windows 10 Digital License


Hey, I have a question.
Do you think the digital license is saved on my MSA after i changed back to my local account?

What I mean by that:
I Added MSA to my Windows 10 and it said in Activation tab "Windows is activated with a digital license linked to your Microsoft account", and my PC was in device list of my MSA.
But I don't like the fact that I have to type in password every time I boot up. It's my private PC, I don't need password, I never had. So I switched back to my Local account. But now it's back to "Windows is activated with a digital license" only, and the PC is also gone from the device list on my MSA account.
Do you think it actually unlinked the license, or maybe because I logged in once, it saved anyway, and I will be good with activating in the future on a changed machine?

 

Windows 11 Digital License: Can not reactivate after delete the activated device in the Microsoft Account.

Firstly, I have bought the license of windows11 from windows store. I install windows 11 on parallel desktop17 with permanent license. I can activate it and it works well.

Next, I mistake something (not about Windows 11). Then, I delete the windows 11 from parallel desktop. I reinstall windows 11 on parallel destop17 again. I can reactive by selecting "troubleshoot", "I change hardware on this device recently", "See other devices linked to your Microsoft account", then, I select the old device of actived windows 11. I can activate it. It works well.

Now, there are something mistake again (not about windows 11). Then, I delete the windows 11 from parallel desktop again. BUTTTT, I go to the microsoft account and delete all old devices of activated windows 11. <--- I am not sure now this process deleted my digital license ??? (because I think that the digital license attached with the Microsoft account, not device.)

I reinstall windows 11 on parallel destop17 again. I cannot reactive by the same method. Please see the pictures.

Please Help me to get back my digital license ... or where I can found the activate code.

I bought the license from windows store. I get the digital license.





From this picture, I select "Troubleshoot". (I found the solution from microsoft help.)





From this picture, I select "I changed hardware on this device recently".





From this picture, I select "See other devices linked to your Microsoft account".





Firstly, I found the device with activated windows. I selected the device and I can reactivated as well.

Next time, I go to the Microsoft account and delete all old device of activated windows 11. Then, I reinstall windows 11 again. From the picture, I can not activate now because the old device with actived windows 11 have been deleted. Don't the digital license attached with the Microsoft account ? Help Me Please

*** From this picture, Macbook Air and Macbook Pro use the Windows 10 with the institute license (Not the digital license) on Parallel Desktop 16 (permanent license).
