Windows 10: Windows Activation Issue 0xC004F211

Microsoft,


I have previously installed a new motherboard and CPU in my computer and now I am getting "Activate Windows" followed by the above error code. Sadly I am not sure how to fix this but I have been informed that if I have proof of previously purchasing windows 10 pro and installing anew Motherboard/CPU then I can get a new code. Please get back to me I can provide proof of both.


Regards, Mario

:)

Windows Activation error 0xC004F211

I upgraded my PC by switching the Motherboard, CPU, and RAM. My previous build was connected to my Microsoft account. after attempting to activate windows on my new machine i keep getting error 0xC004F211. I attempted to contact Microsoft support but apparently
they won't be able to help until tomorrow. On my Microsoft account there are two different devices that are named the same one of them is my old build and the other is the new build, however i have the activate windows watermark in the bottom left hand corner.
how can I solve this?
