I recently reinstalled Windows 11 using the Cloud Download option, and now I'm getting a message saying my license will expire soon. It prompts me to check the activation status in Settings. I'm not very tech-savvy, so I asked ChatGPT for some guidance. It suggested checking for an OEM Product Key in the BIOS, but it's not there. Apparently, I might have downloaded a KMS or organization license while resetting my PC, which raises some questions. Is this fixable? Did I make a mistake, or is it the manufacturer's fault? What should I do next? I have a Y9000P Yunaqi Edition AI laptop, and I could really use some help.

I initially followed some of the advice I got, but I think I might have missed a few steps. Have you checked the Activation status under Settings > System? That could give you a clearer view of what's wrong and what you can do to correct it.
It's noteworthy that you consulted an AI, but remember that factory resets can be problematic. Clean installs usually work better. Just make sure to follow proper procedures next time!
Yes, this situation can definitely be resolved! The easiest option would be to purchase a legitimate Windows 11 license directly from Microsoft. Unfortunately, if you can't find a Windows 10 key sticker or any Windows 11 key, it looks like buying a license is your best bet.
Before panicking, can you tell us what version of Windows your Lenovo came with originally? That might help us figure this out.
