  1. Windows 10 activation error 0xC004C003


    Hi,

    I bought a retail key for windows 10 and installed on a new laptop. After 2 days the laptop broke down and returned it. Now I have another device received from supplier and try to install the Windows 10 again but get this error on Activation when using the same key.


    I entered my Microsoft account and removed the old laptop hoping that now I can activate, but without any success.


    Can somebody help me, please?

    Thanks!

    :)
