    Reactivate Windows after Hardware change doesn't work.


    I changed the hardware on my PC and now I cannot reactivate Windows.I click "Troubleshoot" under "Activation" and then "I changed Hardware on this device recent;y". I check "This is the device I'm using right now" and click "Activate", but I get the message "We can’t reactivate Windows on this device. Try again later."

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

    windows 10 reactivation after hardware change

    I just changed motherboards, and When I follow the the steps listed in the "reactivate windows 10 after hardware change" support page, it gives me the message "unable to activate windows" message after I sign in and identify my device,
    with no error code, just a subheader that says "can't activate windows 10 on this device, try again later."
