Has anyone else had activation issues after upgrading to Windows 11? My Windows ?

Can confirm. You could also try the slmgr /rearm command in Command Prompt as admin, that's fixed it for a few people.

Yeah, Before that, have you checked if your Microsoft account is properly linked to your digital license in Settings?

Yeah, Agreed, linking the account is the right first step. Also, try running the Activation troubleshooter again after a quick reboot—sometimes it just needs that. Let me know if that works.

If that doesn't help, can you check if your Windows 10 license was a retail version or if it came pre-installed with your PC?

Yeah, that's a good point. Also, try running the Activation troubleshooter again after a reboot—sometimes it just needs a fresh start.
