Иногда во время использования Виндовс 10 может внезапно появиться сообщение с текстом «Срок действия вашей лицензии Windows 10 истекает». Сегодня мы расскажем о методах устранения этой проблемы.

Убираем сообщение об истечении лицензии

Для пользователей версии Insider Preview появление этого сообщения означает, что приближается срок окончания пробного периода операционной системы. Для пользователей обычных версий «десятки» подобное сообщение – явный признак программного сбоя. Разберёмся, как избавиться от этого уведомления и самой проблемы в обоих случаях.

Способ 1: Продление пробного срока (Insider Preview)

Первый способ решения проблемы, который подойдет для инсайдерского варианта Windows 10 – сброс пробного периода, что можно проделать с помощью «Командной строки». Происходит это следующим образом:

1. Откройте «Командную строку» любым удобным методом – например, найдите её через «Поиск» и запустите от имени администратора.
   

   Урок: Запуск «Командной строки» от имени администратора в Windows 10

2. Напечатайте следующую команду и выполните ее нажатием клавиши «ENTER»:

   slmgr.vbs -rearm

   

   Эта команда продлит срок действия лицензии Insider Preview ещё на 180 дней. Обратите внимание, что она сработает только 1 раз, вторично использовать её не получится. Проверить оставшееся время действия можно оператором slmgr.vbs -dli.



3. Закрывайте инструмент и перезагрузите компьютер для принятия изменений.

Данный метод поможет убрать сообщение об истечении лицензии Виндовс 10.

Также рассматриваемое уведомление может появиться в случае, когда версия Insider Preview устарела – в таком случае решить проблему можно установкой последних обновлений.


Урок: Обновление Windows 10 до последней версии

Способ 2: Обращение в техническую поддержку Microsoft

Если подобное сообщение появилось на лицензионной версии Виндовс 10, это означает программный сбой. Также не исключено, что сервера активации ОС посчитали ключ некорректным, отчего лицензию отозвали. В любом случае не обойтись без обращения в техподдержку редмондской корпорации.

1. Сперва потребуется узнать ключ продукта – воспользуйтесь одним из способов, представленных в руководстве далее.
   

   Подробнее: Как узнать код активации в Windows 10

2. Далее откройте «Поиск» и начните писать техническая поддержка. Результатом должно быть приложение из Microsoft Store с одноименным названием – запускайте его.
   
   Если же вы не пользуетесь Microsoft Store, обратиться в поддержку можно и с помощью браузера, перейдя по этой гиперссылке, а затем кликнув по пункту «Обратиться в службу поддержки в браузере», который находится в отмеченном на скриншоте ниже месте.



Техническая поддержка Майкрософт поможет решить проблему быстро и результативно.

Отключение уведомления

Имеется возможность отключения уведомлений об истечении срока активации. Само собой, проблему это не решит, но раздражающее сообщение исчезнет. Следуйте такому алгоритму:

1. Вызовите инструмент для ввода команд (обратитесь к первому способу, если не знаете как), напишите slmgr -rearm и нажмите Enter.



2. Закрывайте интерфейс ввода команд, после чего нажмите сочетание клавиш Win+R, пропишите в поле ввода название компонента services.msc и нажмите «ОК».



3. В менеджере служб Windows 10 найдите пункт «Служба Windows License Manager» и дважды кликните по нему левой кнопкой мышки.



4. В свойствах компонента нажмите на кнопку «Отключена», а затем «Применить» и «ОК».



5. Далее найдите службу «Центр обновления Windows», затем также дважды кликните по ней ЛКМ и выполните действия из шага 4.



6. Закрывайте средство управления службами и перезагружайте компьютер.

Описанный метод уберёт уведомление, но, повторимся, саму причину проблемы не устранит, поэтому озаботьтесь продлением пробного срока или приобретите лицензию Виндовс 10.

Заключение

Мы с вами рассмотрели причины появления сообщения «Срок действия вашей лицензии Windows 10 истекает» и познакомились с методами устранения как самой проблемы, так и только уведомления. Подводя итоги, напомним, что лицензионное ПО не только позволяет получать поддержку от разработчиков, но также куда безопаснее, чем пиратский софт.

Updated on October 4, 2023

Installing Windows is easy as all you have to do is to buy the official OS and install the same on your machine. But often, due to issues about verification or bugs on the computer, users get the Your Windows license will expire soon error message.

Well, it seems that the Windows system is seeing the Windows 10 update not as a regular OS improvement but as a standalone OS, and that’s why you will have issues with the license.

That also became a problem if you are upgrading to Windows 11, and that’s not normal since getting the new Windows platform is free.

However, you should know that all the solutions below also work for Windows 11 except for minor graphic details, so you should be reasonable to go.

Anyway, if you are getting the Your Windows license will expire soon alert on Windows 10 or 11, let’s see how to address this issue.

What will happen if the Windows license expires?

When the license is about to expire (2 weeks before it), you will regularly see a message that reads; Your Windows license will expire soon. You need to activate Windows in Settings.

Once the expiration date is passed, Windows will automatically reboot every three hours, and any unsaved data will be lost. This will continue for two weeks before you reach a stage when Windows won’t boot.

After you cannot boot Windows, the only option would be to reinstall the OS. And you would need another device for that.

That’s why we recommend creating a bootable USB drive when you see the Your Windows license will expire soon message for the first time to facilitate seamless reinstallation and activation of the OS.

Similar messages reported by users

Your Windows license will expire soon message can be annoying on its own, but users reported the following issues as well:

• Your Windows license will expire soon but Windows is activated
  • This is the most common problem, and many users reported that this message appears even if their Windows is already activated.
• Your Windows license will expire soon HP, Dell, ASUS
  • According to users, this error message can appear on almost any PC, and many HP, ASUS, and Dell owners reported this problem on their devices.
• Your Windows license will expire soon keeps popping up
  • This message can be rather annoying because it appears frequently
  • However, you should be able to fix this problem by using one of our solutions

If you bought a new device that comes pre-installed with Windows 10 and now you are getting the license error, your key might be rejected (the license key is embedded in BIOS).

The best will be to contact your manufacturer to ask for official assistance and walk you through the troubleshooting process.

Get a new Windows license key

If you do not have an official Windows license key and are running a temporary Windows version, you need the official version to eliminate this issue.

There is also the possibility that you already have a license. In that case, check our guide on how to recover your license key.

But don’t worry if you don’t have one because you can easily buy one on the Internet with just a few clicks.

Beware! Buying on sites or Internet shops that do not have any official partnership with Microsoft can become a waste of money – the key might not be working.

If you need to buy a Windows license, you can try to do it on the official website or on dedicated retailer platforms.
