Hi, recently my factory SSTC ssd on my mid 2021 razer blade 15 adv died so i replaced it with a brand new samsung SSD (i had also installed a patriot p300 in the secondary ssd slot) however after installing windows from a usb and logging in to my microsoft account it said i had no windows activation and when i tried to use the trouble-shooter the original laptop never popped up as a option, i had also contacted microsoft support but they also said they cant fix it, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Question
Windows key gone after fresh ssd installed
+1It should activate automatically, because key is embedded on motherboard.
You might try Razer’s recovery image (maybe clean iso from microsoft cannot activate with this key): https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/6300
