Digital License Can't Find My Microsoft Account on Windows 11

Question

After upgrading to Windows 11, my digital license is not showing up or linked to my Microsoft account, even though I previously activated Windows using my account. This causes issues with activation and device management, making me unable to verify my license or transfer it to other devices easily, which is frustrating and leaves me uncertain about the legitimacy and security of my Windows installation.

Can you please confirm, if you have selected I changed hardware on this device recently option.
If yes and it is still not worked, I highly recommend you to contact Microsoft support, they should be able to activate your system.

Make sure you're signed in with the same Microsoft account that you used to activate Windows previously.
