Upgraded my desktop's motherboard, cpu, ram and graphics card, now Windows is asking me to activate

I've been a windows insider for the past 6 years, just upgraded my current desktop with a new motherboard, cpu ram and graphics card, I presume windows has detected it is a new computer, while it isn't. And has asked me to activate windows.

 

How do I get my windows insider account to recognize my pc so windows is reactivated?

 

Thank you!

  • Did you have a digital Key when you signed up with Microsoft Insider? If you do then just make sure you sign in with your Microsoft account associated with the digital key. If not then you will probably have to call MS or buy another key.
