Hello

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot this problem:

1. Check Activation Status:

• Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run:

slmgr /xpr

This command will show the activation status of your server.

2. Re-activate Using Command Prompt:

• You can try re-activating the server using the following commands:

slmgr /ipk <Your-Product-Key>

slmgr /ato

3. Run Activation Troubleshooter:

• Go to Settings > Update & Security > Activation and run the activation troubleshooter. This can help identify and fix common activation issues.

4. Review Event Logs:

• Check the Event Viewer for any activation-related errors. Look under Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > Security-SPP for relevant entries.

I hope the information above is helpful.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know.

Best Regards,
