HP Recommended

If your notebook came with W11 from HP, and not FreeDOS, see if this works:

 

Download and install the free Showkey Plus app from the Microsoft Store.

 

ShowKeyPlus - Microsoft Apps

 

When you run the app, it should show you three things:

 

1. An 'installed' product key

 

2. A Windows OEM product key

 

3. The version of Windows the OEM key is good for.

 

The W10 OEM key is good for W11 too.

 

If the installed key is different from the OEM key, change the installed product key to the OEM product key in the PC settings menu and you should then be able to activate Windows.
