When I replaced my old hard drive with a new one, Windows stopped recognizing the activation, although everything worked fine before. Does anyone know how to restore Windows activation after replacing hardware?
I ran into the same issue once. As soon as I booted up with a new disc, Windows told me it couldn’t recognize the activation anymore. I was pretty confused because I hadn’t changed anything else. After a bit of research and trying to manually reactivate, I ended up using a kms tool as a temporary fix. It worked and got me back up and running while I figured out how to properly link my digital license to my Microsoft account.
