Activating Windows
This page describes how to re-activate Windows if you receive a message saying the license is about to expire on a UT-owned system. Or, if you see a message that says it can't be activated because you don't have a valid digital license or product key. If these steps do not resolve your issue, please contact our office.
Ensure that your system is either connected a campus wired network, connected to Eduroam WiFi, or VPN if away from campus.
