Product: Victus by HP 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-e0000 (2V8Z8AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I got a pc with a windows for lifetime. recently the wifi stopped working, so i went to a local repair shop he reset my pc completely, he said there is something wrong with your windows 11 software. so he reset my pc completly by removing the windows given by my pc(factory) and he put windows 10 that he has. now wifi started working, i updated my pc to windows 11. now its showing that your windows license is expiring soon. what should i do to get the windows for lifetime?

since i removed the windows version given by my company by default and put the vendors windows again. is it possible to get the windows version given by my company back? please help!!!

Hi:

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to install and run the free Showkey Plus app from the Microsoft Store.

 

ShowKeyPlus - Microsoft Store Apps

 

It should show you the Windows OEM product key in your notebook's BIOS.

 

Use the OEM product key you see in the report to activate Windows.
