Windows 10: How to activate Windows with licence linked to email?

Hello, I am facing a problem with activating Windows on my second device, a laptop. I activated Windows on my primary PC back in 2022, and it is linked to my Microsoft account. I recently bought a new laptop, linked it to my account, and tried to activate Windows, but nothing happens. I even tried the "I changed hardware" option, but it didn't help. Both of my devices are linked to my Windows account and email, but I can't activate Windows on the second device. Online help or any other assistance is not available in my country, Uzbekistan, Tashkent. Please help me understand how to activate i

windows 10 activation - licence will expire soon

There are two new entries in the Diagnostic report.

1. Activation Scenario Code:

Both are blank on my PC.

My guess is 1. above relates to this VAMT Step-by-Step Scenarios (Windows 10) | Microsoft Docs - if so non-volume users won't be affected.

No idea about 2. - there are more than enougn PK entries already!... was hoping some more digital licencing stuff would come up.

Gonna have to do some more digging and testing,,,
