Asked by

I recently reset my Windows 11 due to some corruption issues, but now I'm seeing an 'Activate Your Windows' blue screen error. My computer was originally running Windows 10 before the reset, and I'm not sure how to resolve this activation issue. Any help would be appreciated!

It sounds like you might need a new Windows 11 activation key. If you upgraded from Windows 10, sometimes the key doesn't carry over properly after a reset. Make sure to check where you got your Windows 11 key from and see if it’s valid. If it's your first time with Windows 11, you'll likely need a new key related to that version.
PCFixer34: I updated my old Windows 10, so it should technically work, right?
GamerDude78: Yeah, sometimes it just requires a fresh key for the new install.
