    Thanks abbodi1406, can we block these ips in hosts instead of using firewall?

    Since hosts is only for DNS resolution (URLs -> IPs) you can't block IPs with host AFAIK.

    Edit: If you try to block the URLs in place of the IPs, yes, that's possible with hosts. But you can never be sure if some apps try to access the IPs directly (in this case hosts is useless).

    what works it's playing with windows firewall with netsh command like this

    (Incoming)

    [netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="(anyname)" dir=in action=block program="C:\Program Files\(your program)"]

    (Outgoing)

    [netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="(anyname)" dir=out action=block program="C:\Program Files\(your program)"]

    works with just about every program :D

    Nope, not a clue :D
    which script is failing? KMS_VL_ALL or SppExtComObjPatcher + Activate-Local? or both?
    and how about the AV program?

    that may indicate the problem at your side o_O

    Well, better to block the IPs then. Likely MS owns at least the complete 65.52.98.0/24 block? Once they start using IPv6, things will start to get more tricky.

    Windows 8.1 Pro VL x64.
    KMS_VL_ALL does not work for me.
    SppExtComObjPatcher + Activate Local works well :biggrin:

    @abbodi1406 and Carlos Detweiller:

    a noob question:
    is it ok to just block the 3 IPs (65.52.98.231 ---> 65.52.98.233) or better block the whole range (65.52.98.0 ---> 65.52.98.255), plus abbodi1406 why did you remove the firewall block rule from your activation tools?

    I don't know exactly, but so far only those 3 IPs are used for check

    i never included the firewall block rule in my scripts :)
    because so far i see that this check is a side effect, doesn't harm activation status
    and if microsoft decided to deactivate us, they can find ways beyound simple 3 IPs :D

    @abbodi

    sir, when win 8.1 is installed it auto downloads these KBs viz 2895219, 2894179, 2894029, 2889543 AND 2883200. Do these KBs have anything to do with activation or just for the smooth working of the o/s as claimed by MS for some KBs ? ( i have not gone through the purpose for which these updates are released).
    Thanx
