    which key are u pointing at win 8 pro or win 8 proWMC or after upgrade from pro to proWMC... and for fresh install and upgrade ur win 8 pro must be activated hence u have to activate it again against KMS server... also u don't require any new key ur por key is a gvlk key and hence will not be blacklisted and proWMC key is retail and u can use it as many times as u wish but only on same system

    I meant it like this:

    Install Windows 8 Pro with VL Key
    Upgrade with WMC Key
    Read Windows 8 Pro Key with PID Checker

    Make fresh install with Windows 8 Pro key from the last step without the WMC trick..

    But if the Key doesn't change after activating WMC then my logic is not correct..

    So in short I thought that I can get a legal Windows 8 Pro Key (!) which I can later use to install a fresh Windows 8 without any tricks.. I think this is a false assumption..?

    ur key of WMC is replaced with one installed with pro so PID checker will show proWMC key and not pro key... and even if as u say u get a pro key it will be the same gvlk key available out there... hence u have to activate it against kms server with every reinstall...

    I signed up with 5 different e-mail address(s) and I haven't recieved a single key in 48hrs. I don't want to activate the damn thing illegally I just want WMC. I'm about to buy the stupid thing for 10$. :eek:

    Be nice if someone packaged up WMC as a standalone. Seen it with the early years of windows.

    Just as Shenj said, you have to stay patient. I sent it simultaneously from two accounts, for one of them i got it in five days and the other still hasn't come (it's been about a week). This is after the Microsoft site said 72 hours ie. three days. The demand must be too high for them too keep up (we already know the reason for that :D). You've just waited for two days, so just wait, it will come. :)

    only 5 e-mail addresses? :D :D :D - all my new keys arrived after 72 hours :)

    I use the best web e-mail service with no ads and no cr@ppy features -> safe-mail.net ( you can make a multitude of e-mail addresses very fast - no questions asked ;) )

    You can even request the keys from an Android device!!!! that's hilarious :)

    I've read some pages back, but just for confirmation, I have activated win8 pro with the serial for WMC, which replaced the old KMS server serial. If I understood well from what I've read, if I reinstall windows 8, I cannot activate with WMC serial if I don't use KMS activation first.
    Also I can restore the activation(If I have a backup), by replacing the winodows\system32\spp\store folder with the backup.
    Is this gonna work(because this serial is from WMC, which isn't yet installed on the new windows 8 system)? Have anyone test it?
