To determine the validity of your Windows license, take the steps listed below;
1. To launch the "Run" dialog box, press the Windows key and R on your keyboard.
2. In the "Run" dialog box, type "cmd" (without the quotations) and hit Enter. The Command Prompt will open as a result.
3. Type "slmgr /xpr" (without the quotations) in the Command Prompt and hit Enter.
4. A notification describing the status of your Windows license will appear. The phrase "This machine is permanently activated" will appear if the license is authentic. The message "This copy of windows is not activated" or it may simply show you the date when the license on your computer will expire will appear if the license is not genuine.
Going to the "System" in control panel and look for the "Windows activation" area, you can easily determine the current state of your Windows license. If your license is legitimate, Windows permanent activation status will be revealed. Windows will not be activated if your license is not legitimate, and a notice describing why will be displayed.
It really is important to remember that your computer's dependability, security, and performance depends on you utilizing a legitimate Windows license. Additionally, it supports in the development and maintenance of the Windows operating system.
