    Hi

    I installed Windows 11 Enterprise Evaluation 22H2 with 180-day validity.

    How do I extend its life by another 180 days?

    Thanks

    Bye

    or
    slmgr.vbs /rearm

    reboot

    So, should the above command be used on the last day of the expiration or when the OS has already expired?

    After running this command, does the OS configuration and settings remain the same or are those default settings restored?

    Thanks

    Bye

    The OP is running an EVAL version of 22621 enterprise not a dev channel build, he wants to rearm the evaluation period.

    Is it possible for the OP to do an in-place upgrade? That is, boot into his eval version, mount an iso image and run the setup from the iso image?

    I wonder if maybe changing product key to generic oem pk for any lower edition would do the job.
