    is there a way to convert an evaluation of windows embedded standard 8 to a standard (unactivated) version? if not that, is there a different way to install it without a normal key? would deploying the install.wim file work? the only key i could find was an evaluation key.

    you can use windows 8.0 enterprise

    just add bypass esu blue ( to have update up to 2026 from server 2012 ) and net framework 4.8 + ie11

    not needed to use this bad build
