How to Fix “Windows Can’t Activate Right Now” Error

By Widel Portal Jun 28, 2025 86

If you're trying to activate your Windows and you see a message like:
“Windows can’t activate right now. Try again later.” — don’t panic.

This is one of the most common issues. The good news is: you can fix it yourself, even if you have no technical experience.
Follow these easy steps.


Step 1: Check your internet connection

Make sure you’re connected to the internet. Windows needs to communicate with Microsoft’s servers.

How to check:

  • Open any browser and try visiting a website like google.com.

  • If it doesn’t load, reconnect to your Wi-Fi or plug in your Ethernet cable.


Step 2: Confirm your Windows version matches your license

Your license must match your installed Windows edition.

Example: A Windows 11 Pro key won’t work if you have Windows 11 Home installed.

To check:

  1. Press Windows + I to open Settings

  2. Go to System > About

  3. Under Windows Specifications, check your Edition


Step 3: Re-enter your product key

Sometimes, just entering the key again solves the issue.

How:

  1. Press Windows + I → SystemActivation

  2. Click Change product key

  3. Enter the key from KingLicenses.com

  4. Click Next and follow the prompts


Step 4: Use Phone Activation (if needed)

Some systems need to be activated by phone, especially older versions or after hardware changes.

How:

  1. Press Windows + R

  2. Type slui 4 and press Enter

  3. Select your country

  4. Call the number shown

  5. Provide the Installation ID and receive the Confirmation ID

  6. Enter it to activate
