Windows activation after bios update

After updating the bios, im unable to activate windows 11, which was already activated. You're telling me I can't update the bios without windows freaking out. I paid for this product and now the only thing the troubleshooter is telling me to do is to just buy another product key. How the hell do I go about fixing this since windows services is just an utter joke? I'm constantly having to deal with fixing **** issues with windows 11. This product is a big joke. The "get help" app does nothing but direct me to exactly what their windows activation page is on the website.

Contacting support did nothing. They told me it's not their issue. Quality service M$

    It's next on the list of things to try. I started researching m*** after I made my posting. Looks legit so will give it a try.

    Still curious as to what will happen when I try to tie my newly activated installation to my MS account. I already have the HWID for my main installation registered. What will MS software do when I try to add the same PC with an identical HWID? May try a test activation on a spare disk to see what happens.

    FYI, I'm dual booting my PC with two Win10 installations on the same PC. My gaming installation is the one that got deactivated by the BIOS update.

    Thanks for the suggestion but I can't find any windows web experience pack or host on my computer or in the Microsoft Store. Searching the web, it says it is included in Win 11. I'm on Win 10. Searching the Store, I don't see it as an option to load.

    My problem is trying to activate one copy of Windows twice on one PC. I need to get past "digital license for this device has already been used to reactivate this device". It was no problem before but a &*$*#(@ BIOS update messed everything up.
