I always have the Text: Activate Windows on the right bottom of my screen, but I already did it and it worked but someday it showed up again and I lost my product key so I can´t enter it again. Is there any advise I can do, exept buying a new one?

    Run the Activation Troubleshooter.

    Ref: Using the Windows Activation troubleshooter

    Check your Microsoft account online, as digital licenses are linked to it.

    Try to restore the Product Key from backup or email.

    Open Command Prompt as Administrator and copy-paste the following command:

    slmgr /dlv

    It will show you detailed license information.
