    It doesn't "completely" change, the KMS(or whatever activation) record is kept in the data.dat file in the Store folder. Even if you don't read into the binaries, you could notice it is about double size of the original before WMC upgrade. :p

    using "/slmgr -dlv" can that link be used hehe. I am assuming that means it checked for WGA

    Correct... if you -ipk the GLVK key after retail activation - even with KMS offline... ur KMS activaton returns...:eek: same vice-versa - so u can toggle activation type by just changing the key in fact

    PS this happened with my Dreamspark retail key ie same installation - may be different for WMC

    I successfully activated my Windows 8 Pro with Media Center 64-bit! I'm also using a Microsoft account with it. Everything's okay so far.

    To get yourself cleared of any more doubt, run "slmgr /xpr" in command prompt (in administrator)

    Enterprise does not support media centre. And since you say it expires in 32 days, I suspect you installed the Eval edition, but then a Eval edition should activate by itself....did you tried the funny Korea "activator" on it?

    :confused:
