    My activation is suddenly saying it cannot activate?


    I have had the same windows key for a while now, a year or so I believe, and it is suddenly saying it cannot activate windows. I tried troubleshooting and it tells me that it cannot activate it. I have attached a screenshot of my Command Prompt about my windows as well as the error.

    For verification, now you are saying it isn't activated and Microsoft won't help you?

    My PC suddenly says its not activated

    So you have a clean install and is activated?
    Why are we on about what happened on the old install? It was most likely damaged.
