Windows keeps deactivating itself

[pitchtheripoff]

A month or so ago, I've been having issues with Windows activation. The system keeps deactivating itself after a random period of time. A troubleshooter usually fixed the issue, however recently it has stopped working. I used the virtual agent. That's also stopped working after a few weeks. The Microsoft Store fixes the issue usually however I want to know how do I stop this from happening? I asked on the Microsoft forums and I've been told it's an OEM issue so I came here to look for answers. 

The error code for the troubleshooter is 0x80070005. I've had this laptop for around half a year. This is an Omen 15  (1050 ti 4GB model from 2018 I think?). I'm connected via Wi-Fi by all times if that helps and the last updated installed is KB4601554.

Please help,

Hi:

Install the free showkey plus utility and see if changing the W10 installed key to the W10 OEM key in the report resolves the problem.

Get ShowKeyPlus - Microsoft Store

Go to settings>Update & Security>Activation>Change product key. 

Enter the W10 OEM product key from the showkey plus report.

This might be a pretty dumb question but is this software safe? I don't think I trust it. 

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Yes it is safe, or it would not be available from the Microsoft store.

I have used it for years myself on all of my PC's that have a Windows product key in the BIOS.

Okay, I changed the key to the OEM one like you mentioned. I'll get back to you in a day or so to confirm if this worked.

Okay so I'm back; This solution didn't work. The problem came back.

Sorry that didn't work.

The only other suggestion I can offer would be that you back up any files you need to save onto a portable hard drive, and reinstall W10.

Use the cloud recovery tool to create a bootable USB recovery drive that will reinstall W10, the drivers and the software that originally came with your notebook.

Here is an info link for how to use that utility.
