    Windows 10 not activating after re-install


    I updated my hardware it was basically a full rebuild and reinstalled Windows from a boot drive. It installed just fine, but won't activate now. I tried doing a reset and reinstall, and it still isn't working. Under Activation in the Settings, it gives me this error code: 0xC004F213. Can anyone help?

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

    Windows 10 not activating after re-install

    Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

    How long did you wait for activation?
    When I re-installed with a fresh install... it took a few hours to sync and activate.
    However, it did, finally, activate.
