    Unable to Activate Windows through troubleshooting


    Hi There,


    I have recently built a new computer and activated a newly purchased Microsoft 10 Home license on it.

    Unfortunately, the motherboard of the new computer died and would no longer boot up.


    I have bought a new motherboard, but unable to activate my current windows license on the new machine, since it points to the older mobo.

    Is there a way for me to disable the license on that previous machine?


    Kind regards,

    Prince

    :)

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    • What happens when you try to Activate Windows 10?

    Windows 10 Activation Error: 0xC004F034

    Hi Greg,

    This error code is usually caused by a problem with the product key. For better assistance, we would like to clarify how you got the Windows 10 Pro? Is it supplied by a company?

    As an initial troubleshooting step, we suggest that you run the Activation troubleshooter and try activating Windows 10 Pro again. To run the Activation troubleshooter, follow these steps:

    • Click the Start button and select the Settings
      icon.
    • Choose Update & Security from the list.
    • Select Activation in the left pane of the window.
    • Click Troubleshoot.

    If your Windows 10 Pro is supplied by a company, we recommend that you get in touch with your organization's support for assistance with the activation.

    We'll be waiting to your reply.
