I'm just not realy sure if it have something to do with the number of cores: in the name of the software is WINSVR2019STD ADLIC (4 CORE) NOKEYAPOS. I'v read only few pages of the big book, and I realy don't understand some things even if it's in german... they write about how many licences you have if.... where... under wich circumstances...

I'v read today a reply to my comment in the blog of the shop from a customer with exactly the same problem....
At the moment the HP support in my country is closed, and agent Brenda from HP USA send me just links wich don't give me answers...
