    Hi Everyone,

    I am using O365 E5 license which has Windows 11 Ent subscription. After formatting my laptop, Win 11 Ent subscription did kick in but it is still showing as Windows not activated. It is in kind of weird state as below:

    Any way to fix this issue?

    Enterprise activation is through O365 without any key.

    Guys, this is subscription based activation which is without any keys. It is based on AAD account.

    if O365 E5 license which has Windows 11 Ent subscription through AAD . contact system admin or Microsoft 365.
    For Microsoft customers with Enterprise Agreements (EA) or Microsoft Products & Services Agreements (MPSA), you must have the following requirements:

    A supported version of Windows Pro or Enterprise edition installed on the devices to be upgraded.

    • Azure AD available for identity management.

    • Devices must be Azure AD-joined or hybrid Azure AD joined. Workgroup-joined or Azure AD registered devices aren't supported.
    first step, make sure you have that windows pro activated. As that’s needed as a baseline. The subscription Enterprise license step-up requires an activated Pro license. If the laptop was bought with Pro and reimaged, click troubleshoot to activate the existing key

    I’m pretty sure you’ve not got a windows 10/11 pro license on that machine.
