What SL_E_CHPA_DIGITALMARKER_INVALID_BINDING tells you

The result SL_E_CHPA_DIGITALMARKER_INVALID_BINDING (0xC004C051) means the firmware/digital marker used for activation does not bind to the product or environment expected by Software Protection. The name is useful only when tied to the object and state that produced it; neighboring HRESULTs in the same subsystem can represent later stages.

Build a minimal reproduction

Capture marker source/data, product/SKU identity, firmware/BIOS information, hardware binding context, and Software Protection event details.

Keep those inputs stable while testing one prerequisite at a time. Verify the device firmware marker and installed edition/channel belong together; correct the product/firmware mismatch rather than editing licensing-store data.
