    Why is the activate windows button in my corner after a hardware change?


    I have tried to troubleshoot in settings and pressed that I have made a hardware change and this is what it is telling me, "We can’t activate your copy of Windows as the digital license for this device has already been used to reactivate Windows." I have not reactivated my windows any other times. How do I fix this?

    :)
