    You know how sometimes people confuse what they're doing and think one thing is happening when another is really happening?
    I think this person downloaded the country specific chinese esd and upgraded it to a pro version.

    Hmm well to be honest, I wasn't exactly sure what was going on. They spend half the time talking about some 360 program.

    My bad edited last post. Key gets installed, BUT:

    SO DO NOT TEST THIS KEY ON NON-CHINESE BUILDS.

    indeed

    @akhmedtaia, only 10240 has no time-bomb to my knowledge. And the "slmgr /xpr" is useless. It only shows you what you want to see lol.

    Stick with slmgr /DLV.

    Do you confirm, that the key is appropriate to Windows 10? I've not tryied it on yet.
    Cninease guys say to install language packages before the activation or not install language packages after at all.

    @EFA11 True you have made a great point thanks i normally use both (-xpr & -dlv) but you've highlighted a simple thing which often elude me not to look at the detail from -dlv
