I am currently using a legitimate copy of Windows 11, on the latest version. Just started getting this message after the latest update.

Considering I already have Linux and Mac as alternatives, if they actually pull my license they will just lose a lifelong customer. Their business decisions truly boggle the mind…

    You realize that is a screenshot of the Windows update tool, right? Lol… The purpose of this post is that it wouldn’t let me update, saying that my legitimate copy of Windows 11 was at end of service. The issue has since been resolved.

      The screenshot says the version you use reached EoS and you need to update. There’s absolutely nothing about invalid licenses in the screenshot.

      Good job for getting upvotes on a “haha winblows bad” troll post, I guess.

        I was frustrated in the moment because my valid license randomly said it reached end of service without reason. Not entirely sure this qualifies as a troll post… Search this problem, considering the thread on the Microsoft forums I wasn’t the only one with the issue.

        Please reread your comment and what it was replying to, we said the same thing.

        How does sharing a screenshot of an issue with Microsoft’s licensing server indicate that I need hand holding to use a computer? This is a Linux forum, if I had to guess every person here is on the high end of computer proficiency. It seems to me you are just a hostile person who likes to bully people online.

            You seem like someone who thinks they know everything about computers, but have actually never used or updated a windows pc.

            Also, you seem like the only person on my block list, so… congrats, I guess!
