How to Use Windows 11/10 Activator to Activate Windows PC [MiniTool Tips]

What Is a Windows Activator?

A Windows activator is a free tool that allows you to activate various versions of Windows operating system. Generally, this kind of application lets you easily activate Windows 10/11 with one click.

A KMS (Key Management Service) activator is an activation service that allows organizations to activate multiple computer systems in their own network. A KMS activation lasts for 180 days. To remain activated, the KMS client computers must renew their activation by connecting to the KMS host at least once every 180 days.

How to Use Windows Activator to Activate Windows 11/10

If you have a product key or digital license for your Windows 11 or 10, you can easily activate your copy of Windows by using the built-in Windows activator. You can easily find it from Settings.

For Windows 10, you can click Start -> Settings -> Update & Security -> Activation. If your version of Windows is not activated, you can click Change product key to enter your product key to activate Windows 10.

For Windows 11, you can click Start -> Settings -> System -> Activation, and click Change product key to enter your key.

If the Windows 11/10 activation key is not working, you may run Windows Activation Troubleshooter to see if it can help you fix the activation errors on Windows 10/11.
