Windows 10 activation error 0xc0000022

[malha_c]

Recently I've to reset my Windows 10 Pro as ti wasn't running well ... Previously I've upgraded it from windows 7, So, my licence has migrated... But now it is showing (after resetting) "Windows is not activated" please tell how to fix that as it has put a watermark and I cannot access all the features... Its not nice .
After digging a bit I found some product keys on internet, but after entering it on "CHANGE THE PRODUCT KEY" option it is giving the error code :- 0xc0000022 "The product key you have entered din't work. Please check the produc.................... . . . ."....
Please give some suggestion ... How to fix that?

Did you upgrade from a genuine Windows 7 license that was fully activated?

Did W10 activate initially? If so, it should re-activate eventually. Sometimes it can't connect with servers right away. If it didn't activate after some time, there may be a question regarding the legitimacy of your original W7 (and therefor W10) license.

The fact it's showing the product key didn't work, isn't surprising. You're finding keys readily available online? No way those are genuine. Stop attempting those right away.

If your W7 / W10 are definitely genuine, reach out to MS via live chat (within W10) & explain the situation.

Yes my Windows 7 is genuine, and yes after just upgrading, w10 activated automatically. And now in the ACTIVATION section in the Settings, in the Windows section at the top all thing are showing (i.e. Edition, Activation, Product ID) except the Product Key........... (under the " Activate Windows " heading , a message paragraph is showing - ' It might take some time to automatically activate Windows after you connect to your corporate network. If you're already connected, you can try manually activating now.' And just below of that there is a button "Activate" while clicking on that, w10 dots are rotating a bit and stops and nothing happens ! what to do now? will it activate by its own? But it seems strange at it is not displaying a Product Key at the top section (As described earlier) ...

Yes, leave it alone. It'll activate when it reaches the server.

If nothing else, use the live chat function & MS can force the activation for you.

Inputting additional product keys etc (especially ones you 'find' online) are just confusing the matter.

The activating is tied to your account or your unique set of hardware. Once W10 activates, it will re-activate (unless, as I mentioned, there's questions regarding the legitimacy). It may just take some time, or need some intervention from MS.

I think I got the problem.... After digging a lot I found that all the apps and Edge is not accessing the internet (includes Store, Xbox, News, Mail ....... etc) only I can access internet via IE and Chrome, that can be a problem that Activation is also not accessing the Internet and that why cannot connect to the server ! Now, How to fix that ?
