It would be a bad decision and would also limit some function, incl. to add features! So the use of an RTM is onh order if you like to get new features!
when "en_windows_8_x64_dvd_915440.iso" is activated with the EZ-Activator in microsoft toolkit and AutoKMS is installed, will the add features option still show?
Yes. Just note that MS doesn't officially support MCE upgrade from VL-activated Windows. There are ways around it.
Officially, MS requires a retail-activated (non-VL) Win8 Pro as base for WMC. You will be able to add it, but it most probably won't activate over the Internet. Some people had success with a phone activation, no idea if that still works.
WMC is not my problem, i can use other alternatives.. i need an answer to the question i asked Jesssica Alba
i already gave you the answer just install using a gvlk key and then use mtk to activate...... the add features option will still show
i already installed windows 8 PRO with one of the iso i got on TPB, i activated using MTK, i was thinking it was vl version because i didn't see the add features option under "view details in windows activation" but when i searched, i found out it's actually somewhere in the PC... when i click on it, i get two options, if i would like to purchase a product key or if i already have one. so, i guess i'm on the safer side
The option to upgrade your version of Windows (Pro to WMC) is actually right there on your system's properties page.
not if you use windows 8 vl iso to install your windows like these 2 File Name: en_windows_8_pro_vl_x64_dvd_917699.iso SHA1: 6DDEDEBE40AB59CB11823F62F475C43C4053FE60 or File Name: en_windows_8_pro_vl_x86_dvd_917830.iso SHA1: 548AB51161FD83B889596B143D86C1EEB61EF2D0
