All about Windows Generic Product Keys 

Microsoft Windows Generic Product Keys are also called default keys, which allow you to install a specific Windows OS without needing your licensed product key. A good example is when you are replacing a motherboard or installing a VM. Please be advised that you can use such keys to install the OS, but not for activation.

Once you have installed Windows 11 with a generic product key, you may need to replace the installed product key with the one that allows activation, e.g. with your retail key. If you have a digital license linked to your Microsoft Account, the operating system will automatically use a generic key after you login your Microsoft account.
