Windows 10: Windows expired post factory reset of the system

I had reset my system few months back and post that it seems my system was running on Windows 10 pro. For three years its been running on Win 10 and after reset it shows me license is expiring and today its expired. I got my system with pre installed Windows 10 and I believe the factory reset must have changed Windows key. Can you help me to restore my windows ?Thanks a lot !!
