  1. Windows 10 reactivation after motherboard and cpu upgrade


    I have recently upgraded my pc. the old motherboard and cpu went faulty and i put a second hand cpu and motherboard. Now have encountered a problem that my windows is activated not anymore and showing an error code 0xc004f213 saying there has been a hardware change. I have used the troubleshooting tool which only found my old motherboard and giving an option to activate. Then went check the microsoft account and it shows two devices one is my pc with old motherboard and cpu, and second one is the pc with upgraded motherboard. please help me out to activate my windows

    :)

    Windows 10 reactivation after motherboard and cpu upgrade

    Windows activation fails after upgrading CPU and motherboard

    Hello,

    I get an error message trying to re-confirm Windows 10 activation after upgrading motherboard and CPU. Error message that came was: "Unable to activate Windows. We can't reactivate Windows as our servers aren't available right now. Wait for a few minutes
    or try adding your Microsoft account again. Learn more".

    This is now the second day in a row that it does not work.

    Have you seen the same, and if yes, any suggestions for a fix?

    Background:

    -I was following the process recommended by Microsoft Support for the activation after motherboard and CPU upgrade.

    -Before upgrade I had perfectly activated win 10.

    BR,
