    Cannot activate Win10 Pro after Microsoft Store app purchase

    Hello guys,

    My laptop came pre-installed with Win10 Home 64bit and I recently purchased a Win 10/11 Pro licence from the Microsoft Store app. Unfortunately, having some issues activating the digital licence for Win10 Pro.

    Here is the situation:
    • Logged into Microsoft account used for the purchase (also received the email receipt of the purchase)
    • Already connected to stable internet

    What I tried so far:

    Entering the Win10 Pro generic key:



    Received error 0x800700005:


    First time Windows activation after purchase through Microsoft Store giving error 0xC004F211 [​IMG]


    Clicking Close returned another error 0xC004F034:


    First time Windows activation after purchase through Microsoft Store giving error 0xC004F211 [​IMG]


    Clicking Troubleshoot re-activated my Win10 Home so still not on Pro.

    Thanks for any help.


    [FIXED]

    Win 10 Pro suddenly became Win 10 Ent from MS Store app:

    Cannot activate Win10 Pro after Microsoft Store app purchase

    So I guess my suggestion of calling Microsoft and telling them you can't activate your purchased OS from their store doesn't count? *Huh
