We've a MSI laptop with win10 home as default OS. We've also purchased a win11 Pro license for the laptop and installed.

Recently our laptop HDMI port and on-board display card is malfunction and repaired under warranty. It seems the motherboard of the laptop is replaced.

When we try to upgrade the laptop back to win11 pro using the CD-Key, it is not working with error code (0xc004f050).

How could we resolve the issues?

    Think of the OEM key as windows at a wholesale level and the retail well, err, at the retail level.

    That is, the OEM keys are sold to desktop and laptop netbook, etc, manufacturers for installing it on their products and selling them.

    That’s in short is the reason why OEM keys are more cheaper as compared to your windows license at a retail/ online etc.

    Before you hop on and get an OEM key though, a few things you should know.

    Any hardware change will leave your OEM key invalid that is no longer usable change such as your motherboard, and others.

    And Microsoft doesn’t provide any kind of replacement for the OEM keys.

    Activate Windows using a product key
    A product key is a 25-character code, that looks like this: 

     PRODUCT KEY: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

    During installation, you'll be prompted to enter a product key. Or, after installation, to enter the product key, select the Start button, and then select Settings > System > Activation > Update product key > Change product key.
