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$

I have the same issue, updating motherboard / BIOS caused my Windows to deactivate and I cannot activate it again. My license is moved from old PC I had, basing on the Win 7 or 8 key, I cannot find in any my records. I cannot activate from web, technician asks for this old key I cannot find, mentioning it won't work with Win 11.
Microsoft, seriosuly?
My MOBO is MSI Z690 EDGE DD4
Just pathetic, and utterly unprofessional. Very disappointed about this company, once again; and that, after I though something was changing in the right
direction in Microsoft, form the Linux support to the robustness of the new couple of OSs. It is what it is...
Funny you say that. I'm testing several distros on Virtualbox. I'm not even playing with their Linux subsystem anymore.
You're right. We pay, they screw up, we pay more? Nope. Things were kinda going well until recently. I wonder what "good idea fairy" manager made things worse.
