Hi,
SEE EDIT BELOW
Win 11 Pro user here.
Had to re-install windows 11 today.
Cannot seem to reactivate my windows license through the usual Troubleshoot -> I changed hardware on this device recently -> Select Device -> this is the device i'm using right now -> activate.
They told me my license will be reactivated automatically in 24/48h.
Any help or insight would be appreciated.
EDIT:
Let me clarify !
I re-installed W11 Pro using the same hardware. Simply a little system refresh using a W11 installation tool. (USB KEY)
My W11 key is digital. I got it on W11 release. I have been running this install since then.
Right now I cannot reactivate Windows even when doing the troubleshooting suggested by Microsoft :
Reactivating Windows after a hardware change - Microsoft Support
Please read this part carefully - I am not asking any privileged informations or accesses.
Support said the Windows7/8 loophole fix was causing issues for people re-activating their digital licenses in Windows 11.
HOWEVER, out of the 3x people I talked to, 2x confirmed this while the last one said it wasn't true.
Out of the 2x that confirmed it, only one said I had to wait 24/48h for Microsoft to process everyone's digital re-activation.
The other employee transferred me to the ''re-activation'' team where they started a Quick Assist session supposed to manually process the reactivation. (CTRL+Windows+Q). The call and the Quick Assist session got disconnected.
