If you've installed Windows using an ISO downloaded directly from the Microsoft website, you might find that your organization's Key Management Service (KMS) activation method doesn't work.
This is because the default product key is not a KMS key. To resolve this, you need to change your Windows product key to a KMS version.
For example, you can refer to the Microsoft documentation for KMS client setup keys: https://learn.microsoft.com/zh-tw/windows-server/get-started/kms-client-activation-keys?tabs=server2025%2Cwindows1110ltsc%2Cversion1803%2Cwindows81
Change the product key to the Windows 11 Professional version: W269N-WFGWX-YVC9B-4J6C9-T83GX. Then, follow these steps to activate Windows:
- Go to System > Activation and select Change product key.
- Enter the product key: W269N-WFGWX-YVC9B-4J6C9-T83GX.
- Click Activate. Alternatively, you can use your organization's provided activation method.
