SL_E_CHPA_DMAK_LIMIT_EXCEEDED
SL_E_CHPA_DMAK_LIMIT_EXCEEDED (0xc004c020) is a Windows Software Licensing activation-service code. The Multiple Activation Key (MAK) has reached the number of activations allowed by its license. The device cannot resolve this locally; the organization that owns the MAK must review its allocation.
What to check
- Confirm that the device is assigned to the organization and should use that MAK.
- Give the exact error and device details to the volume-licensing administrator.
- Use VAMT or the organization’s approved activation workflow rather than reusing another key.
