+ HWID Activation Troubleshoot:
+________________________________
+
+ - Make sure you are using the latest version of the activator, to check it, browse the links listed
+ in the bottom of this page.
+
+ - Make sure the internet is connected.
+
+ - If the HWID Activation script showed error about Windows Update service (wuauserv), then make
+ sure any update blocking tools or script is not in action in the system. You need to check it
+ and unblock windows update with that same tool.
+
+ - VPN, privacy-based hosts and/or firewall rules may cause problems with the activation. Disable
+ them if you are facing problems in activation.
+
+ - Reboot the system.
+
+ - Now run the script to activate Windows 10-11, and if unsuccessful,
+ Try the troubleshoot button in the Settings > Update & Security > Activation, page.
+
+ - If still unsuccessful and you want to try another activator then use,
+ 'WinActivate' by @Luzea https://github.com/luzeadev/winactivate

+ Tip - Don't start to search and use other unknown tools found on unreliable sites via google search
+ result, they may (some already do) ruin your system with malwares.
