Has there been a fix for the 24H2 activation issues yet? I know running slmgr /ato fixes the problem, but it still scares our end users that their device isn't getting activated upon upgrade.
Hi! Can you provide more details? Have you opened a support ticket?

Hi Jason_Leznek !
The issue pertains to upgrading a windows 11 23H2 device to 24H2. After the upgrade and when the user first signs in, they get a message about windows needing to be activated. The user will have an A3 or A5 license assigned to them in Microsoft Admin. I have not opened a support ticket on this as it's low priority for us with the easy fix, but the issue has happened enough to want me to ask about it.

Please do open a ticket. There can be multiple reasons for the license activation issue.
