I have recently installed Proxmox on my home server, and after that, I installed Windows 11 as my main VM.

unfortunately, I'm not able to activate it with my Microsoft account.

I believe the reason is that the UUID is changed for sure.

so my question is, is there any way around this?

Is it possible to contact Microsoft support so they can provide my UUID so I can add it to my VM settings?

    Hello,

    Firstly, you can try call Microsoft license support to double check about your activation license and its benefits:

    Additionally, you can try download this official document to check the windows 10 licensing for virtual desktops:
