Hi @Vishu16 

 

Welcome to the HP Forum.

 

I don't think anyone in this Forum can provide a Windows activation key. This process is a handshake between your PC and Microsoft activation servers.

 

Try Windows product activation fixes found at this Site.

 

To the best of my knowledge Windows activation should not expire or deactivate unless you have changed the MB.

 

This would be especially true with a Laptop since most components are integrated into the MB.

 

This might be a glitch on Microsoft activation servers. Or the Windows activation key in the BIOS firmware is corrupted or the product key is corrupt or missing in the Windows Registry.

 

Download and run Show Key Plus at the Microsoft Store to see what's going on.

 

Let the Forum know if Show Key Plus detects an OEM Windows product key..

 

Regards
