  1. Windows 10 Activation Issue on my VM


    Hi, I use windows 10 on my VM with Parallels on my Macbook Pro. I purchased a copy of Windows 10 thru the Microsoft Store for my VM. I since then bought a new Macbook Pro and installed Parallels along with Windows 10 and for some reason when i signed in Windows its now asking me again to activate Windows by purchasing another copy. Since I already purchased a copy shouldn't auto sync when I sign on with my Microsoft account? I tried reaching out to Microsoft Support but there wait times are crazy. I'm not sure how to fix the issue. The troubleshooting feature under the Activation page in settings is not working for me. Any help anyone can give would be grateful.

    :)

    Windows 10 VM activation

    Hi,

    I am trying to setup two Windows 10 vms for test purposes on Ovirt virtualization cluster. (Windows 10 Pro with MAK key from visual studio (MSDN) subscription).

    Activation of the first vm encountered no problem, but activation of the second one failed. I have tried to setup second vm by all available means (by cloning from the first one with or without sysprep, from activated state or from clean installed snapshot,
    by installing second vm from scratch, etc.). All are with the same results: The last product key you entered XXXXX can't be used on this copy of Windows (0xC0EA0003).

    Is it possible to have several Win 10 vms on the same hypervisor, activated with MAK key?

    Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

    Windows 10 Activation Issue on my VM

    Activation and Re-activation of Windows 10 Pro VM (VirtualBox, OSX Host) not working

    I've moved a working and activated Windows 10 Pro VM (VirtualBox) from a Windows 10 Host to an OSX Host. The re-activation of the is not Working (Error Code 0xC004C003). I also moved a Windows 7 Pro VM that reactivate without problems. I tried everything
    mentioned in the process to activate. Nothing works or even outputs some useful hint or support contact.

    • used another (afaik unused) product key. not working! Same Error Code.
    • created a new VM and installed a fresh Windows 10 pro. The new machine can not be activated!

    Thus this seems to be a problem within the crappy M$ activation system.

    Any useful hint how to activate this M$ crap would be highly appreciated.
