Windows activation error code 0xC004C003

I recenty bought the Razer Blade 14. Once I started the laptop I wanted to activate Windows 10, which is pre-installed on the device. I got error code 0xC004C003 and it tells me that I do not have a valid license or product key. I also tried it in the command prompt running slmgr.vbs –rearm but that leads to the same error and asks me to put in the product key. I could not find the product key anywhere on my packaging or documentation. Anyone knows how to resolve? edit - solved after updates

hahahaha... Just about to help on the illegal ways.. Luckily you are done on updating the windows, so thats great..

I have the same situation with my new Razer 14 arriving today. I will submit a support request..

I had the same situation with my Razer 14 3080 model. My pre-install also couldn't be updated, it failed to update to latest version of windows and rolled back the updates without any non cryptic error message. I didn't have time to look into it more because i usually just use the pre-installs to validate if i want to keep the hardware or not, once i decided to keep the machine i did a full re-install of windows 10 pro and everything worked perfectly.
