  1. Can't reactivate windows even though i know i have a windows 11 digital license


    so basically I switched my old SSD to a new one and installed windows 11 home on it. And I was sure I had a Windows 11 Home digital license on my account so I tried reactivating it but it keeps telling me i cannot reactivate it because no digital license was found on my account with the error code 0xC004F012. I tried the troubleshooter but it says I only have one device that runs windows 10 home on it therefore I cannot reactivate it. I am very frustrated right now and i do NOT want to spend 145€ on a new Key. I hope I get a helpful reply soon so I can fix this annoying problem.- Richard Pfaff

  2. Please help with "reactivating" my digital licensed Windows 11 in my new computer.

    My Being has just bought a new MSI computer, and tried to reactivate my Windows 11 digital license (from the old one, to the new one,) but to no avail. And when IT tried to reactivate it from a listing of devices connected to my live Microsoft account, there's a device there that is foreign to my Being (i.e., a dell desktop.) My Being has never owned a "Dell Desktop". So it seems that my account is hacked, and perhaps, that's the reason why IT can't reactivate my Windows 11 digital license in my new computer. Can someone please help?

  3. Digital license won't reactivate on new hardware (motherboard, cpu ram)

    Hello,

    I have a digital license of Windows 10 that is linked to my Windows account. I've just replaced my motherboard, cpu and ram and whenever I attempt to reactivate my license the activation troubleshoot says "Unable to activate Windows, We can't reactivate Windows
    on this device, Try again later.

    Prior to changing my hardware I double checked my digital license, The activation said "Windows is activated with a digital license linked to your Microsoft account"

    If I run 'winver' It also lists the produced is licensed to my Microsoft account.

    According to this article below, All I should have to do is goto the activation troubleshooter and everything should work.

    What are my next steps?

    Thanks.
