Same problem - MSI Z690 Force Wifi motherboard. Microsoft told me it is a known activation server issue and to keep trying to activate for a few days (this was a week ago). If what they claimed is true then all we can do is wait and retry. I'll give it another week before contacting support again.

Activation through the same "I changed my hardware" troubleshooter finally worked today. Thank you to the devs who fixed the issue. I hope it works for everyone!

Great that it worked for you!
Sadly i removed most of the configurations on the account and clicking "I changed my hardware" still does not work for me.
