    It's a vpn driver with the tcp/ip packets being passed through them.
    It uses a separate network stack, but it doesn't mirror the packets to invalid ip addresses like tunmirror does.
    It does seem like they could use the mirror io methods to modify the existing packets, but I don't think CODYQX4 wants to go for that approach.
    I've suggesting faking the packets before, but he didn't seem keen on it.

    Recently did a clean install on a seperate machine using a Windows 8 cd. I then activated with KMS_VL_ALL. Worked right away and the prompt told me, the activation would last for 180 days.
    After this, i used a mounted VLSC 8.1 Pro Rollup ISO to upgrade to 8.1
    This worked fine and again i had to run KMS_VL_ALL for activating Windows.
    This time the prompt did not tell me the activation would last for 180 days.

    Is the activation for Windows 8.1 permanent, or ?

    KMS activation only activates you for 180 days by design and never will be permanent

    Thank you on prompt reply. I wasn't aware of KMS_VL_ALL smart activation ability.

    Thanks!

    If you don't mind me asking... is there a one-click solution for adding the KMS_VL_ALL activation as a windows task?
    I've seen people posting some complicated vbs scripts here in this topic, but i'm not really experienced on how to use stuff like that.
    Will it simply run every 180 days? Or will it periodically check if the expiration date is nearing?

    Wow! :eek:

    Big update! You kept that one quiet about the new Server Service scripts! Thanks.

    Cancels out the earlier question I'd posted. Thanks for your continued work on all this.

    "The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.", so says the BackTrack people :D

    you are welcome.


    If anyone with win7 machine (or win8), please do feed back if the script is working well :)

    Link in my sig to your KMS_VL_ALL

    Not updated in your OP, still v6.0.3 there.

    This new post by you, now including all the Server Service scripts will become the main post for it now?

    Yes indeed, thank you for your continued work. After messing around with your new releases for twenty minutes or so, this is a great package of scripts and stuff you have put together here. I didn't think you could improve on KMS VL ALL but it seems you have.

    I'm not imaging this am I, the Tap adapter is being created and enabled a lot quicker than in previous releases? It's not because I'm now messing around in a clean Win 8.1 installation is it?

    Ran all three scripts several times while connected and disconnected, 100% success every time, activated Win 8.1 Pro and Office 2013 and cleaned up after themselves every time.

    KMSServerService Folder. 2-KMS-Service.cmd working fine every time, installs service and starts it, activated against it fine. Second run stops and removes the service and cleans up.

    With no Tap adapters already installed. 1-Tap-Adpater.cmd always offers to remove it, never install it?

    Code:
    TAP-Windows Adapter V9 will be removed from your computer. Continue? [y/n]:
