Hello, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

1. Could you please let me know how your copy of Windows was activated previously? Was Windows 11 Home purchased from the Microsoft Store or a third-party retailer, or was it already activated when you purchased the device?
2. Have you tried running the activation troubleshooter?

Go to Start > Settings > System > Activation > Activation Troubleshooter.

If the troubleshooter says 'Can't activate your Edition of Windows', select 'I changed hardware on the device recently' and follow the prompts to activate it.

If you are still having issues,

Open the Command Prompt (Admin) window. Run the command below.

slmgr.vbs /dlv

Post a screenshot of the resulting dialog box.
