Windows 10: Windows reactivation after hardware changes.

**Sorry if I sound lacking in English grammar but it's not my native language**

Hey, i've changed my motherboard and now it doesn't recognize my Windows 10 pro licenseupgraded all the way from Windows 7 Pro and now I don't know what to do.

The real problem comes when all the tools Windows provides not work and I can't find where to talk with a real person instead of a bot so i can explain my situation and show the proof of both, the Windows 7 Pro purchase and the one of the motherboard.

It's a bit frustrating since the key was "purchased" through the Dreamspark student progam in 2015 so I only have the mail with the order number and similar data.

Thank you in advance for the answers.

windows 10 reactivation after hardware change

I just changed motherboards, and When I follow the the steps listed in the "reactivate windows 10 after hardware change" support page, it gives me the message "unable to activate windows" message after I sign in and identify my device,
with no error code, just a subheader that says "can't activate windows 10 on this device, try again later."

 

Windows 10 won't reactivate after a hardware change

I changed a lot of the hardware on my device recently, however I followed the steps on the Microsoft support page to get my computer ready for the hardware change so that I could reactivate Windows 10 after I changed the hardware. However, now it won't reactivate,
and has the error code 0xC004F025, and when I try to troubleshoot it says "We can't reactivate Windows on this device. Try again later."

My Windows 10 was a free upgrade from Windows 7.
