Hey everyone! I'm a bit puzzled about my Windows activation status. I ran a PowerShell command without really knowing what it did, and I don't want to share it because I'm not sure if it's harmful. Before I ran the command, my Windows was not activated, but now it shows that it is activated with a license description of OEM_DigitalMarker. Is this normal? Does it mean my system is activated with HWID?

OEM_DigitalMarker means your activation is tied to a digital license that's linked with your motherboard. This is usually found in major brands like HP or Dell, and your product key is stored in your motherboard's firmware, so Windows reads it automatically.
If your device originally came with a Windows license, you can use the reactivation commands to make sure everything's set up correctly.
Honestly, why even mess with this? If your hardware already has a Windows license embedded in the BIOS, the OS will automatically pick it up.
