And the I get this message: ''Activating Windows(R), Core edition (fe1c3238-432a-43a1-8e25-97e7d1ef10f3) ... Error: 0xC004F074 The Software Licensing Service reported that the computer could not be activated. No Key Management Service (KMS) could be contacted. Please see the Application Event Log for additional information.''
Will be this included in the "Microsoft Toolkit" to have an All-In-One tool to activate Windows until 8.1 ?? Thanks
only core version which could be activated by using MTK was windows 8. There was a loophole to get it activated for 30 days continuously. For 8.1 we don't have the tool yet so there are some ???
[h=2]New MTK under development![/h]A new MTK is being developed by mikmik38 which would enable the activation of almost all Windows 8.1 versions including Windows 8.1 core. It would take 2-3 weeks at the most to complete. The thread can be found in the MDL Projects and Applications section named "KMSEmulator - KMS Client and Server Emulation [Source]".
Use the qemu vm of KMSmicro 5.0.0. Put the files of KMSmicro 5.0.0 in the same directory of your choice. You do not need all of them. Check my post #1068. Create a cmd-file with the code below; don't forget the last character (dot). Save it in the same directory. Run that cmd-file as administrator. When the KMS server is running, check the timezone. It must be the same as the timezone of your PC. Changing the timezone causes a shutdown of the KMS. Restart with the cmd-file. start qemu-system-x86_64.exe -net nic,vlan=0 -net user,vlan=0 -redir tcp:1688::1688 -m 512 -hda kmsmicro.rom -rtc base=localtime,clock=host -name KMS_127.0.0.1 -M pc -L .
if you want to connect console to internet and run nettime you need to make a bridge. but you don't really need it just set correct time zone that is enough.

Don't worry about that as long as your PC is set to the correct time zone. Try activating first and then let's see what happens.
aha and i'll set it to Russia right? said enter the new time... there's more than one russia time what to put?
Another thing you can do is, because KMSmicro defaults to Moscow, so set your machine to Moscow time zone(UTC+4) in Control Panel, then you don't need to do anything with the console. After activation set it back to your local time zone.
