    Windows 11 not activating after Bios Update for New Pc


    I just purchase windows 11 pro online for my new pc this week. And when i update my bios it deactivate my windows 11 pro and can't activate it again and even i can't even troubleshoot it but when i troubleshoot it only found my Old pc shows up for activation not my New pc. I try to remove device for my new pc into the microsoft account and try to register device it doesn't let me. But in my new pc when i turn on it still says my new pc still register device on it but not in the microsoft account online. I can't even find my license key since it says only in retail because bought it through mic

    :)

  2. Cant Activate Windows 11 after BIOS Update !

    Updating your motherboard's BIOS should not affect your Windows 11 activation, as activation is tied to your Microsoft account, not your hardware. However, it's possible that something went wrong during the BIOS update that caused your Windows 11 activation to be lost.

    To resolve the issue, you can try the following:

    1. Check that you're signed in to Windows 11 with the same Microsoft account you used to activate it.
    2. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Activation and click on "Troubleshoot" to run the activation troubleshooter. Follow the on-screen instructions and select "I recently changed hardware on this device" when prompted.
    3. If the troubleshooter doesn't work, try using the "Change product key" option in the Activation settings to manually enter your product key. You can find your product key on the Windows 11 packaging or in the email from Microsoft when you purchased the license.
    Let me know if you need further help.

    Unable to Activate Windows 11 after bios update. Microsoft forcing users to pay for a license for a what was a free update to Windows 11

    I can see the same PC online in my list of devices online but the hardware troubleshooter

    can't find that device when listing my devices. Something has caused it to lose track of

    my already activated Windows 11 license.

    I have contacted support and they are refusing to Activate my license after my bios update.

    They want proof of purchase after multiple free upgrades to Windows 10 and then to Windows 11

    They keep stating something about a global policy change

    In essence Microsoft is forcing users to pay for new license after a they were offered a free update to Windows 11.

    All I can say where is the lawsuit.
