    Can some one explain the way to activate windows 8 pro via Kms

    I`ve read some info on this site & I`m sure it can be done & it would be activated for 180 days (is that correct)

    Which is the best tool to use is it MTK 2.49 or KMSpico By heldigard

    Also will it auto activate so it stays at 180 days & can WMC be added & activated in the same way

    Or do I need to install windows 8 +Wmc from a iso that includes Wmc then activate via Kms with one of the above tools

    I`m 73yrs young & wish to try this so hope someone can point me I the right direction, But please be gentle with me

    Please note: Its Windows 8 pro With Wmc I wish to activate not Windows 8.1

    Thank you in advance
    Such a great site

    KMS does activate for 180 days at a time unless you use a workaround activation like on Windows 8 Core/CoreSL/ProWMC
    Follow the link Nicky31 gave there. Download MTK 2.4.9

    Open MTK and click the Windows button to open Windows Toolkit options
    Select Activation Tab
    Click Autokms drop down menu and change it to KMS Server Service
    Click the Activate button on the right

    Repeat with Office button if you have Office 2010 or 2013 installed, but know that none of them currently work on Windows 8.1.
    Using that method will re-activate your system every 7 days using a small service-based exe running constantly.

    If you don't change it from AutoKMS to KMS Server Service, you will have to deal with firewall and anti-virus programs trying to block and quarantine it.
    Most activators that schedule themselves to run in the task scheduler are the same way and even if they don't get blocked right away, it will usually happen within a couple weeks.
    It can be confusing to people who don't pay attention to their a/v programs, so save yourself the hassle and use KMS Server Service from the Activator dropdown menu.

    watch the MTK thread? :D As of right now, it is not able to activate 8.1. And the Tools thread I believe will be making a return visit.

    LOL why so serious? You are getting serious for something you haven't paid for. Free is not always guaranteed just enjoy what you get out of it.

    Cheers
