After updating my Windows 11 to 24H2, my Windows is no longer activated. I get the message "You need to activate Windows before you can personalize your PC". When I click on "Activate now", I get the error message "Windows reported that no product key was found on your device. Error code: 0xC004F213". What to do? My Windows was already activated.

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Windows update

Thank you.

You have OEM-COA-NSLP license, so you should have a sticker with the license key somewhere on the computer, look around and see if you can find it.

Once you find the key, you just need to go to Settings > System > Activation> Change product key, input it again and it will activate.

    Hello.

    Can you please type cmd in the search on the taskbar and hit enter to launch command prompt, then run the following command:

    slmgr /dlv

    Then share a screenshot please. Thanks!
