Problems with Windows Activation on Laptop?

Yesterday I played Windows 10 on my new laptop that didn't have an operating system. At first everything was great, but since last night it has been showing the error message below (even after restarting several times). I also re-entered the product key (like yesterday during the installation), but then it shows this other error message again. Does anyone have any advice and can help me?

Where did you get this product key from?

Where did you buy the win 10 code?

I guess you didn't officially buy it for 100 euro and that's why you were sold a used one.

From a buddy who still had a Windows license lying around.

It may well be possible that you have bought a cracked or already used key. Do you still have the receipt?

Got it as a present from a buddy. Presumably already used…

So I got the key from a buddy, don't know if he has used the code before. But could that be because of that?

Yes, then it was already used. Get a new one.

Win 10 Pro keys are available from 4 euro

Either that or it is fake. Always be careful when buying something from a trusted dealer

Yes

Not a good idea:

The key seems to have already been used. That leaves the legal and the dark way. Both of them are not a big deal ✌️🙂

How much does such a serious license cost? Do I have to do some research

Haha, that is?

Sure, it's not legal

but it is very unlikely that the police will somehow find out that you bought one, etc.

~ 100 euro

The license doesn't seem to be working. Buy one on ebay: https://www.ebay.de/...=0&_sop=15

If the first doesn't work, take the second.

Win 10 Pro about 240 euro, I still have to look at Home.

Either buy a license, or go over it with a loader and activate windows with it. The latter is of course illegal (before the custom goes straight back to the pitchforks and witches hunt, I'll mention it once).

As far as I know that you are no longer allowed to buy the cheap Windows 10 Keys from many other providers. And if you have also bought a cheap key, it is hardly surprising.

What you can do, ask Microsoft why it doesn't work, and I think they will definitely help or answer why that doesn't work.
