Hi Ibrahim,

There are hundreds of posts for this on the Microsoft forums from users getting this error message. Here's one of the solutions for you:


First, check the type of license installed on your system.

1. Open administrative Command Prompt.

2. Type slmgr /dlv and press Enter key.

3. Note the Product Key Channel section Windows Script Host box:


If it mentions OEM <method>, you’ve OEM license installed.

If it says Retail, you’ve retail license installed.

If it mentions GVLK, VOLUME_<method> then you’ve volume license installed. Note that GVLK stands for Generic Volume License Key.

---------

Retail license users facing this issue, run Activation troubleshooter:

Contact Microsoft Support or license vendor, if issue still persists.


In case if it reports that you've volume license installed, then it is not a valid license to be used by end users (correct me, if your system is part of organization).

In this case, you need to buy genuine license for your Windows 10.
