This little trick helps you in removing the watermark in great need. You can deactivate it again by using the same method explained above.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > WindowsNT > CurrentVersion > SoftwareProtectionPlatform > Activation Now go to the following key in the Registry Editor:


But, like me, if you’re facing any issue in the activation process, you can use the following method to temporarily get rid of the watermark. Please note that the best and proper way of getting rid of this watermark is, obviously, to activate your Windows 10 by entering a valid Windows 10 key. Today, I will tell you how to temporarily remove this watermark from Windows 10 screen. The problem was that the Activate Windows watermark also appears in the screen recording - which of course doesn’t look nice. But then the other day I was screen recording on my laptop. As I could not resolve the activation issue, the watermark did not really hamper anything and I could work without any problem.


As a result, the operating system shows the “Activate Windows Go to Settings to activate Windows” watermark label in the bottom-right corner of the screen. I have a Windows 10 based laptop on which I have not been able to activate Windows for some reasons.
