Is AutoKMS / KMSPico still required to keep activation 'good'?

    Just rather annoyed at the random character folder that it creates in the root of my boot drive. I guess if I disabled the Scheduled Task related to AutoKMS then it might stay deleted, but then what would be the point of even having it?

    Kms server needs to be connected to once in 180 days so you can run some other kms tool(check kms tools section in mdl projects) & then delete it & do the same again after 180 days.

    Or you can just install & run your own kms server using kisskms in an android device & be done with installing any thing on any pc.

    Autokms is not supported on MDL. We have a dedicated KMS section where you should be able to find a properly supported kms solution.

    So AutoKMS is bad, I shouldn't use it?

    I'm using KMS Auto net and it's working fine. you have to use Volume Licensing (VL) version
    i think Retail version won't work...

    No need for big and bold, any proper KMS solution will insert the gVLK so the install will be VOLUME before it runs it's KMS magic.

    I have to rectify, i mixed up autokms and kms auto net, just noticed it :). Autokms is from MTK, kms auto is russian project, not supported on MDL.

    KMSpico = autopico
    MTK = autokms

    Ok so the AutoKMS in my scheduled tasks is normal then? I did use MTK. The reason I even brought this up is because Speccy calls it "badware" and made me look bad reporting it on my system.

    If the installer was downloaded from MDL, or the checksums match the ones published here, it will be false positive.

    False positive or not it was is a pretty quick way to get barred from a tech support chat. :(

    You installed it, nobody else.

    When your OS itself is based on "not so genuine" method then you are supposed to know better than to engage in a tech support chat over that "not so genuine" method.:p
