Checking if your Windows operating system is activated is essential for ensuring that you have a genuine and fully functional copy of the software. Activation links your Windows installation to a specific hardware configuration, preventing unauthorized use and ensuring compliance with licensing terms.
There are several methods to check the activation status of your Windows system. One simple way is through the Settings app. Go to “System” > “Activation” to view your activation status. Another method involves using the Command Prompt. Type “slmgr /xpr” in the Command Prompt window to display the expiration date of your Windows activation. Additionally, you can check the activation status by right-clicking on “This PC” and selecting “Properties.” The “Windows activation” section will indicate whether your system is activated or not.
