1) Try Activating Windows via Command Line

3) If the Error Occurs in Other Scenarios
If this issue arises in other situations, such as when starting the firewall, installing applications, or updating the system, follow these steps:
– Press Win + R on your keyboard.
– Type services.msc and press Enter.
– In the “Services” window, locate Windows Update, right-click it, and select Properties.
– Under the General tab, find Startup type and set it to Automatic, then click Apply.
– Restart your computer.
Additionally, if the firewall is disabled (for example, due to an installed antivirus), you may need to temporarily disable the antivirus (remember to re-enable it afterward) and enable the firewall.
