Windows 10/11 Pro Activation Guide
The activation process of Windows using a product key verifies that your copy of Windows is genuine, properly licensed, and ready to receive full features and updates from Microsoft.
Before you start
Make sure you are using the correct edition of Windows for your product key. A Windows 10/11 Pro key should be activated on the Pro edition, otherwise activation may fail.
Step-by-Step Activation Process

You need a valid product key to activate Windows.

You can typically find this under Update & Security in the settings menu.
In the Activation settings, you will have the option to enter the product key.

It will send the product key to Microsoft’s servers to verify authenticity.
