Depending on a number of factors, you may be faced with a similar issue. In a nutshell, the native UI in Windows 8 informs you that it is unable to activate windows right now, please try again later. After some digging around, I realized that I never actually entered my key during setup, and maybe that was the underlying issue.
Problem is; there is no easy way to input your key in the Windows 8 UI. But there is a simple enough workaround:
- Open Start Menu.
- Type "run" and press enter to invoke it.
- Type "slui 3" and press enter.
- Enter your product key and Activate.
- Done!
