How To Solve Windows 10 Activation Problems

Sometimes we face Windows 10 Activation problems even after having a genuine License key…

In today’s guide, I will try to explain to you guys how to solve this problem in Windows 10 step by step…

Note : Make sure you are not using any illegal way to activate your windows 10 because most of those tools come with virus infected files in them...If you want to keep your system clean, do not install any such harmful tools because they mostly contains virus & will infect/damage your entire operating system...

If you don't already have a valid or genuine windows 10 license, then first get windows license key from any genuine site, source or service provider as per your liking...

1) First Right-Click on your Windows Start menu & click on “System”…The below System menu will open like this below…Scroll to the bottom until you can see your Windows 10 version...Now click on that highlighted link that says Change Product Key or upgrade your edition of Windows...

2) After clicking the above mentioned link, it will show you the current activation status of your Windows 10 computer like the below screenshot...In my case, I have my Windows 10 Pro already Activated...

The screenshots here are showing the Microsoft windows activation screens for windows 10 Pro...If you have Windows 10 Home installed on your machine, these two screens will show you the windows edition written as Windows 10 Home...

3) If you have entered a license here before & it still shows unable to activate or shows you an invalid license error, Please do the following method to overcome this problem...

A) Open a Command Prompt Window (CMD) with Admin rights...For this, you can simply right click on your start menu & click on "Windows Powershell (Admin)"...If it asks for any permission, give that permission & the Command Prompt/Powershell with Admin screen will open...

B) Now enter this command in your Powershell/Command Prompt window --> slmgr /upk & press enter...The above command will uninstall the product key from your system & you will get a confirmation saying that the product key has been uninstalled successfully...

C) Now you will need to come back to the Activation screen shown before...Now this screen will show to you that, no product key found...You will now need to insert your genuine license key in the Update Product Key section & click activate...

Congratulations...Your Windows 10 will be successfully Activated now...If you still get any error message after properly following the above steps, you may have a dead/invalid license & you will need to talk to your dealer or the place from where you have purchased the license from to either get a refund or a replacement...

Make sure to always try to buy or get windows 10 license key from a genuine source like I previously mentioned at the start of this article...
