SL_E_CHPA_PRODUCT_KEY_OUT_OF_RANGE
SL_E_CHPA_PRODUCT_KEY_OUT_OF_RANGE (0xc004c001) is a Windows Software Licensing activation-service code. The activation service rejected the product key because it does not fall within a permitted key range for this request. Re-entering the same key repeatedly does not resolve a range or channel mismatch.
What to check
- Confirm the key was obtained from an authorized source and belongs to the installed Windows edition.
- Check whether an OEM, retail, MAK, or KMS key is being used in the correct activation scenario.
- For organization keys, ask the licensing administrator to verify the assigned key range.
