    So, there's a virtual machine running on Server 2012 R2 that activates 8.1 and office 2013 just like the one that surfaced last year?

    Can anyone send a link via PM? :)

    Yes & tap1 is enabled network bridge is on. Can it be from the version or something I'm using MICROSOFT.WINDOWS.8.1.PROFESSIONAL.RTM.X86.VOLUME.WITH.ROLLUP-1.ENGLISH.DVD-WZT

    I successfully used KMSmicro to reactivate Win 8.1 64 RTM Pro that I originally activated with KMSpico about four days ago. I know that KMSmicro is only supposed to activate VL versions but I believe that KMSpico converts the RTM key to VL before activating. In my case it showed the 'Blue' edition as activated prior to using KMSmicro.

    I'm wondering if KMSmicro will monitor my activation and reactivate before the 180 days is up or do I need to keep an eye on it and do it manually? My understanding is that KMSpico reactivated after each start.

    Hope my question is not seen as totally lame. I feel out of my depth amongst such high achievers! :(

    Try firing up the activator, but then tabbing out and running admin command prompt.
    Navigate to your office folder that has the ospp.vbs file and run:
    Code:
    cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:KMSMICRO-PC
    cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688
    cscript ospp.vbs /act
    It's just a suggestion, I don't have much experience with using names instead of ip addresses.

    Are there possibly any differences between the OEM version released back in August 27, 2013 and the Public version released on October 18, 2013 that may affect activation proccess in some way!? Cause I almost tried everything, following every details described in this thread, in every possible way, yet no luck making KMSMicro 5 to activate my Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 o_O

    If you installed office in a different location from the default location, try using the method I just listed in the post before this...

    Here's my instructions on TPB... make sure you've done EVERY step.
    Code:
    1) Remove any previous activators or helper applications such as KMS keygen
    or KMSpico
    2) Open KMSmicro.exe
    3) Go to settings tab and choose the "Installing TAP" button and follow
    the install directions
    4) After TAP is installed, go into your network settings and rename the new
    TAP connection "tap1"
    5) Highligh both your normal connection and the 'tap1' connection and right
    click and choose "Bridge Connections" (let it work for a minute)
    6) Alt-Tab back to KMSmicro and click the "Run KMSmicro Console" button
    7) Wait a few minutes while the VM warms up
    8) Choose the "t" option in the VM to syncronize time with the internet and
    press enter
    9) After fully syncronized, Alt+Tab back to KMSmicro app and Click the
    "Activate Windows" or "Activate Office" button depending on your needs
