Windows 10: Device under 9"

I installed windows 11 home on a steam deck. When it's on my device everything is fine. When I use hdmi out it starts to display "windows needs to be activated" on my monitor. Is there a way to fix this? I read windows 11 does not need to be activated on the steam deck.
