After upgrading my PC hardware, Windows started showing limitations I never noticed before. The setup process went smoothly, yet something feels off. I didn’t expect hardware changes to affect system behavior like this. It’s confusing because performance is good overall. What usually causes Windows to act differently after upgrades?

I had this after swapping motherboard and CPU, performance was fine but some Windows options behaved differently. Hardware changes can trigger a new activation check, even if installation looks complete. Reading how kms activator windows 10 works made it clearer why the system reassesses its state after upgrades. Once Windows confirms activation status, those subtle limits usually disappear and everything feels consistent again.
