Windows 10: Windows 11 24H2 update disables my windows activation.

I have a pretty old system build around 2018-2019 and was running Windows 10 pro. When Windows 11 rolled out, I got a free upgrade, downloaded and upgraded, and had no problems with my Windows key up until now when I updated to 24H2 where after updating, it deactivated my Windows.My problem now is, I had an OEM key and any written/printed copies of the key are long gone.When I try the cmd/powershell/registry ways to get the key it doesn't give me anything except for the regedit one where I could actually find a key BUT, when I try to choose change product key, Windows won't accept the product

Factory reset Windows 11 24H2 (build 26100.863)

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

There are no currently listed problems resetting version 24H2 of Windows 11 and no specific steps you need to perform, are you experiencing any problems with that insider build that is causing you to perform a Windows reset?

 

Windows updates...

Oh. Your "Registry" must have gotten screwed up FLY3R. If for some reason you couldn't download your updates I suppose you could go to the update site, and run throught the steps 'till it fails activation. Then you could go up to "Tools > Manage Add ons > then disable "Windows Genuine Advatage Validation Tool." Of course you should only use this method if you are having problems updating your legitamate copy of Windows XP. Perhaps do to a corrupted piece of software? *Smile

 

Windows updates...

You cant just disable it anymore.
