  1. Having a hard time activating Windows 11 Pro


    I am having a hard time activating the Windows 11 Pro that I purchased via Microsoft Store. I expected a digital license linked to my Microsoft account for activation but it's showing me that i don't have it. I then tried troubleshooting, yet nothing happened. I even tried contacting Microsoft Support for several times and received nothing in return. How can I fix this?

    :)

  2. Windows 11 Pro activation key

    Thanks for reaching out! I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you.

    Have you tried logging in with the account linked to the digital license on your device? I've provided a few steps you can try including some more you can follow:

    1. Link your Microsoft account: Ensure that your Microsoft account is linked to the digital license on your device. Go to Settings > Accounts > Your info and check if your Microsoft account is listed there. If not, click "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead" to link your account.
    2. Run the Activation Troubleshooter: Go to Settings > System > Activation, and click the "Troubleshoot" button. This will launch the Activation Troubleshooter, which can help reactivate Windows after a hardware change if your Microsoft account is linked correctly.
    3. Enter your existing product key: If the Troubleshooter doesn't resolve the issue, try entering your existing Windows 11 Pro product key. Go to Settings > System > Activation, and click "Change product key." Enter the key you used previously to upgrade to Windows 11 Pro.
    If you are still having issues after trying these steps, please let me know. I'll be happy to help.

  3. 100% hard disk active time in windows11.

    I already did these type of steps like formatting whole hard disk then clean install windows 11 and didn't install any third party apps only apps were windows stock

    But still facing 100% active time hard disk but my hard disk usage was only 2% or 3%. My pc gets slow whenever active time reaches 100% and most of the time active time is always 100%.

    Having a hard time activating Windows 11 Pro

    How to retrieve my Windows 11 Pro Activation Key

    Hello,

    I bought a PC with Windows 11 Pro installed on it. The hard drive recently crashed and I have to install a new HD. However, I do not have the activation key. The PC is listed on my Microsoft Account. It did not have a sticker on the PC. I don't know why manufactures quit doing that? Anyway, I will install the new HD and install windows pro on it without activation. Please help me retrieve my activation code, so I can fully use Windows 11 Pro.

    Thank you!
