Windows 10: Fix Windows Script Host Error 0xc004f025 during Activation

In this article, we will describe the possible methods to fix the Windows Script Host error 0xc004f025 during Windows 10 Activation. Some Windows users have reported this error when they tried to activate a Product License key or expand the expiration time of their Windows Server via the SLMGR tool:

Windows Script Host, Error 0xC004F025, Access denied, the requested action requires elevated privileges
​

SLMGR (Software License Management Tool) lets users run commands required to perform Windows license activation tasks. Users can also use this command to change their product key.

Error 0xc004f025, Access denied, requires elevated privileges


If you are experiencing this error on your system, the following solutions may help you:

1. Run the activation command in the elevated Command Prompt.
2. Run Windows 10 Activation Troubleshooter.
3. Contact Microsoft Support Team.

1] Run the activation command in the elevated Command Prompt


The slmgr.vbs is a command-line licensing tool that you can use to configure licensing in Windows devices. It also helps to see the current licensing status of your Windows 10 installation. Many users do not know that Windows license activation requires administrative privileges.

They enter the command slmgr.vbs -rearm to activate the product key or to expand the expiration time of the Windows server by launching the Command Prompt in normal mode. This is the reason why they get this error.

If you are making the same mistake, try to execute the command in an elevated Command Prompt.

To do so, type cmd in the Windows search box, right-click on the Command Prompt app, and select Run as administrator. If you get a UAC (User Account Control) window, click Yes.

Many users have found this solution helpful.

Hope this helps.

Windows 10 Activation Error Code: 0xC004F025

So I'm having issues with activating Windows 10 at the moment. I had it running on my old rig but recently built a new one. I bought Windows 10 Home back in 2018.


At least it should be the Home version. However right now it's showing as Windows 10 Enterprise. I don't know if that's the same thing and honestly not sure if that's what it was before.







I tried troubleshooting but that didn't seem to help.









Can anyone help me figure this out?
Thanks
