If you have a product key get ShowKeyPlus from the Store and enter the key in Check edition. What detail does it give about the key?

Good morning, I recently had an issue where I bought 2 lenovo laptops back to back and both did not work/crash on me. On both laptops during the installation process I installed the activation code to upgrade to window pro. I am on my third lenovo laptop and it looks like I finally got one that will work, but my activation code no longer works. is there a way to activate the code? I am sure you can see that the first 2 IP address are not active.

Where did you buy the licences for Windows 11 Pro. Were they full licences or upgrades from Home to Pro.
