Windows server shows me this error:
"We can't activate indows on this device because the product key was already used on another device. If you think it wasn't used on another device, select Troubleshoot below. Error code: 0xC004C020"

After select Troubleshoot, Windows server does not activate.

    Hello,

    Is this product key purchased from a legitimate source and not activated on another machine?

    According to the error message, it may have a problem with the network, we suggest you try to activate it by phone:

    1. Select Start > Settings > System > Activation.
    2. Under Activate Windows Nowsection, select Activate by Phone.

    Have a nice day.

    Best Regards,

    Hania
