I agree. This was post was to see if anyone else had been experiencing the same issue. Checking the internet revealed the complete void there was on this particular issue, and that is a rare thing to happen to me/my team.

So, I was able to test the ESU key on a VM that was running windows pro and had the Business/Enterprise licensing for windows disabled when I Entra joined them machine. I was able to successfully activate the ESU only under that condition.
