    I thought that an all offline activation (KMSmicro) is the best...no?

    Activated once with KMSmicro at 5 PM IST. Checked status with slmgr -xpr. Activated again with MTK at 7, Checked xpr, it had renewed again. No joke, try it and see for yourself :)

    My point exactly. I just hope I'm not the only one getting this:confused:

    Whew. Thank you very much :D At last, no need to worry about reinstalling Office.

    And yeah, anyone who tries this and gets the same result as I did, please do let us know. Hope this helped :)

    I apologize if this was asked earlier, but after activating is it safe to un-bridge, and delete tap adapter? Then when times come to reactivate, then reinstall tap adapter, bridge connections, and then reactivate?

    will the activation be lost during the 180 days if tap adapter is deleted?

    i think it would be safe to unbridge and delete tap, but i just wanted to make sure...

    The tap adapter is only to give KMSmicro access to time servers so as to set your system time. I tried it once without running the sync, it ran perfectly. The bridge is the method of connecting the tap adapter and your internet connection. Savvy? Your activation status is a rock-solid 180 days from the moment you activate, whether you connect to a server (emulated, real, whatever) or not. Feel free to experiment, at worst you just have to rerun KMSmicro and reactivate to get another 180 days ;)

    Uninstall KMSpico and try again.
    Make sure the server (the console, the blue screen thingy) is fully loaded before you try to activate. Start it and wait for ten minutes (safe margin assuming even a HORRIBLY slow system) before you try to activate. If possible post a screenshot so we can figure out what isn't working.

    But! Okay, let me try it now. I'm sure I'm right about this one. Will upload a pic of slmgr -xpr now, activate with MTK and show you again.

    EDIT: First shot, before running MTK. View attachment 24924

    Another EDIT: MTK activated successfully, new -xpr status View attachment 24925 View attachment 24926

    I couldn't surely have made the same mistake twice now, would I?

    First advance your date to 10 days & then slmgr /dlv will show 170 or 169 days as left & then run you MTK....

    Not just that. The tap adapter is what allows the host (the computer you are running KMSmicro on and trying to activate) and the guest (the VM in KMSmicro) to actually communicate with each other. Even if you don't connect to the Internet and don't do time synchronization, you still need the tap adapter.

    I've given a few hours' gap and since these activations are issued based on seconds, there are sufficient seconds in between to prove my point. Not sufficient?

    Making progress...

    The significance of this image: I managed to transfer the Win 8.1 CSVLK tokens and product key out of KMSmicro and into a fresh Windows 7 Professional VM in VMWare. As you can see, it is not in an activated state yet, but that will come.

    For now, the procedure was very complicated and technical, and involved a lot of experimenting. I hope to simplify it, eliminate unnecessary steps and write a clean set of instructions later.
