Device activation required

Question

Hello

We are moving to the Self-Deploying mode within Azure AD so we can build the laptop, hand to the user and then leave the rest to work in the background. However when the users are logging into the devices for the 1st time they are being prompted to activate Windows, we as admins have to log in with our own profiles then troubleshoot the Windows activation for the licence to kick in. This error appears before hitting the troubleshoot icon - 0x8007232b

I have found the following in event logs on a test PC and not sure if relevant but they have not appeared since I have activated the device.

Before activation;

Error 29/05/2024 10:01:46 Security-SPP 8198 None

License Activation (slui.exe) failed with the following error code:

Any tips on where to look would be much appreciated.

Kind regards

Answer 1

Open an Elevated CMD prompt and slmgr /dlv on both an unactivated users' machine and a machine that has been activated.

Compare the results, this may point us in the right directions.
