New e-mail from MS with a free WMC key arrived just a few minutes ago Time to "upgrade" a KMS version to an unlimited legit version ... waiting only 30 hours (by the way, there was an earthquake in Canada/north of Seattle 7.7 on the scale - might be a reason for delays)
The earthquake was wayyy north of Seattle. I'm in Vancouver, BC and I didn't feel a thing - not even an aftershock. And I'm still waiting for my WMC key after 30+ hours...
if you are talking to me: I took the key out of the spam mud and saved it to a place where it cannot be lost edit: I put it into the window for upgrade to WMC and it was accepted ...
sorry to go off topic here but I have to nominate this post as post of the week I woke up today and this was the first thing i looked at been smiling ever since Thanks S1ave77 you made my day
There doesn't seem to be any constancy with the keys I applied 36 hours ago still only have 3 out of the 4, 1 came yesterday 2 today and still waiting on yahoo email all 4 keys I applied for at the same time
works for me i have aplied KMS solution activation and after a time i aplied this solution with wmc key and windows is activated permanently, but question is how long it will be working?
Perhaps you installed one of your "many" machines in your company, where you could not adjust the time zone etcetera as you earlier said, during install on the first page with the wrong key ?? I owe you this as promised: Everyone can adjust this during initial setup but most skip it when using the native language version because it is preset. At the beginning in August, when most of the users only had the english version available forgot to set the time zone to their location and then, the KMS activation failed due to the 4 hour range! Install W8 pro with a non VL key, then change it to VL and activate with KMS, and after this you can use the WMC key mailed to you > license fine for ever
dcdc not neccesary, only install with VL key for pro version and activate it via KMS server afzter that put wmc key and activate it again
HM, I detected some hints which told to do it the original way, doing it as I said but maybe the short way is ok as well. I did it this way and was perfect like other said before. Anyway, a nice way to catch a W8 at a very very low rate
What VL key should I use. I have my own VL key that I got from MS that I activate against my MAK host KMS (CSVLK KEY)
