I changed up my computer's settings yesterday, but now Windows won't let me use it because it thinks my license key is fake. That's why I bought a new key when I set up the PC back in February—it works perfectly with that one, but not this time. I've updated the BIOS many times since then without any problems. The problem started today after I bought the key from WhoKeys. Can you tell me what else could be making this happen?

The Windows activation servers have an issue, but it should get fixed on their own within the next few weeks.
