SL_E_SRV_INVALID_PRODUCT_KEY_LICENSE
SL_E_SRV_INVALID_PRODUCT_KEY_LICENSE (0xc004b002) is a Windows Software Licensing activation-service code. The product key reached the activation service, but the license record attached to that key was not accepted for this activation. A key can be genuine yet still be wrong for the installed edition, channel, or entitlement.
What to check
- Confirm that the key is for the installed Windows edition and licensing channel.
- Check activation status before changing anything, so the original error is preserved for support.
- Use only a key obtained from Microsoft, the device manufacturer, or the organization that owns the volume license.
