    Upgrading to a faster SSD should improve performance, but what if cloning the drive unexpectedly removes Windows 10 activation? Everything copies over correctly, yet after rebooting, an Activate Windows watermark appears, system settings are locked, and updates are disabled. Microsoft’s troubleshooting offers no solution without a product key. How can activation be restored without rolling back to the old drive or reinstalling Windows?

    System upgrade was supposed to make things better, not create activation problems. After cloning the old hard drive to an SSD, everything seemed fine—until Windows 10 activation was lost. Personalization settings were locked, and Microsoft’s built-in troubleshooting only suggested entering a valid product key. The quickest solution turned out to be windows 10 activator, which reactivated Windows within minutes, restoring all features and updates.
