    Hello,

    Please type cmd in the search on the taskbar. Don't press enter key yet. Instead, choose "run as administrator" to launch Command Prompt.

    Then run this command: 

    slui 4

    Then follow the screen prompt to activate by phone.

    To activate Windows 11 by phone, you typically need to follow these steps:

    1. Select Start > Settings > System > Activation.
    2. Under the Activate Windows Now section, you should see an option for Activate by Phone.

    If you cannot find the Activate Windows Now section, it may be due to the specific version of Windows 11 you are using or because the activation method has changed. It's also possible that the phone activation option is not available in your region or for your specific Windows edition.

    For detailed instructions and support, you may want to refer to Microsoft's official activation support page or contact Microsoft support directly for assistance.
