    for simple test purpose (smile), it is ok to use install keys, OldMX mentioned. A more convenient method might be to install a VL version because there is no need to type in any key during installation. Them having seen the show can easily delete/format the partition where test-8.1 was installed :D

    That is a patched version by a felow member, which is good i believe, but to discart any issue try a clean one from the repository, check the stickes at the top of the forum.

    Install windows with any key and then uninstall the key by that command.

    Isn't the idea to be able to install without a key? Besides, entering a non-legit key will either get rejected, or worse, blacklisted.

    Yes always nice to not have to use a Key, but does it really matter in the end when you have the key you need to install?
