Activation issue

To resolve the issue of your Windows 11 Pro license showing that it has already been used, you can try the following steps:

1. Check Activation Status: Ensure that your Windows 11 Home was properly upgraded to Windows 11 Pro. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Activation to verify the activation status.
2. Use the Activation Troubleshooter: If the activation status indicates that the product key has already been used, you can try using the Activation Troubleshooter. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Activation and look for a link that says "Troubleshoot". This may help resolve the issue.
3. Re-enter the Product Key: If the troubleshooter does not resolve the issue, try re-entering your Windows 11 Pro product key. You can do this by going to Settings > Update & Security > Activation and selecting "Change product key".
4. Contact Microsoft Support: If you continue to experience issues, it may be necessary to contact Microsoft Support for assistance. They can help verify your license and ensure it is properly activated.

Make sure that your device is connected to the internet during this process, as activation requires an internet connection.

Hello, Bryant Fuller.

Please specify, did you buy the full version of Windows 11 Pro or upgrade the edition from Home to Pro? Did you install the Pro edition from the same account that you made the purchase from?

Run the Command Prompt as an Administrator and run the commands in order:

slmgr.vbs /ipk <ProductKey>
slmgr.vbs /ato

where <ProductKey> is the 25-digit product code (the unique activation key from the license package).

Next, restart your PC and check for activation after 5-10 minutes. If there is no activation, then post a screenshot of the slmgr.vbs /dlv command window here.
