    Error code: 0xC004F074 (Activate Windows)


    Yesterday the 'Activate Windows' message appeared in the bottom right hand corner. I immediately ran the activation option in settings, which said it could not contact my organisation's activation server. I am a personal home user and don't have an organisation. I ran the troubleshooter which failed. I bought the PC brand new a few years ago and it came with Windows 10 Enterprise pre-installed. I don't know or have a product key to enter and the one I can see in settings displays as X's.

    Error code: 0xC004F074

    I have not changed the hardware.


    I can't see any recent updates that would have broken it.


    There are no more updates to install.


    I have a stable internet connection.


    Tried running sfc /scannow which repaired some broken files but did not remove the intrusive watermark.

    Any ideas?

    :)

  2. ERROR CODE : 0xC004F074

    Hello,

    I bought my HP laptop with windows 10 Pre-installed on March 2016. Recently a message started poping up saying

    "YOUR WINDOWS LICENCE WILL EXPIRE SOON"

    You need to activate windows in your settings.

    And in the settings a message shows " Your windows expires on 08th August. Contact your system administrator to get a product key. ERROR CODE : 0xC004F074 "

    I tried to activate it with product key I got when I purchased the product as suggested by 'https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/10738/windows-activation-errors' . But it shows that Windows
    can't be activated with this product key. Go to settings for more information. Error Code : 0xC004F074

    Please help as to what I need to do to activate my product.

    Thanks,
