KMS Activate Windows 8.1 (En & Pro) and Office 2013

It's definitely possible. We could emulate the activation renewal sort-of by doing a SKU detection and somehow parsing the time left on the activation,
but there's just so much that can go wrong with something like that. Sometimes simplicity is better than un-necessary complexity.

 

Yep.

I just remove my tap-adapter, disconnect internet, and the activation operation was successful three times.
besides, why would anyone run the script repeatedly too fast if one successful time is good enough?
if you gonna run it repeatedly, you better install tap-adapter so it can be kept installed with no issues

and remember, the script isn't perfect, it's just human

 

Thanks for the tip
but i already removed "ping -n 2 %kmsip%", using "ping -n 2 localhost" and "timeout" is better

 

tap0901.cer removes the hardware install nag screen you get the first time the driver is installed.
It would not affect subsequent installs.

 

Becuase I like fiddling!

So to resolve the issue I'll rename the original KMS_VL_ALL_verbose.cmd from the 6.0.2 release and replace it with the KMS_VL_ALL_verbose4.cmd you just posted. Thanks for this again.

Gravy all the way now.

Perfect.

I, too, had the issue where it ran fine on my physical machine (no VM) while my ethernet cable was plugged in but not if the cable was unplugged. This version with the Wait and Timeout lines fixed it for me - or perhaps it was the change to pinging LocalHost vs %kmsip%; regardless, this one did the trick. Really a great scripting product you've come up with. Many, many thanks.

 

KMS VL ALL 6.0.2 - small and easy love it Thanks for Tap remove script

 

Again, just in time for more testing. Thanks abbodi1406 and murphy78 for all the extra tweaks and tricks!!
Murhpy, are you planning on incorporating this into your $oem$ folder project? Or does this SFX replace it? I really only have two major OS install steps: (1) The actual Windows install (from USB, using Win8PESE and JFX's WinNTSetup), completely unattended etc (2) PostInstall (with dozens of tools, settings, etc. etc., silent as well, of course). With Windows 8 (thanks to your oem folder), it is auto-activated in step (1), but if it turns out that activation is more reliable with your new "silent SFX" after setup (when the system has settled down a bit), I could just as easily switch it to "phase 2".

Oh, and this: The Daily-Activate-Task of the new SFX, it goes through the whole cycle of install/ remove Tap/Tun, etc., right? While the $oem$ folder just keeps the Tap adapter installed all the time? So the latter would be a bit faster and maybe more reliable on older systems? (ie. better for "silent re-activation" after 30 days or so).

EDIT: Tested the new "high priority v2" on the slow laptop (TrueImage restore of fresh 8.1ent), test 1: OK (I will test at least 3 times). EDIT2: Test 2: OK (timed at around 22 seconds). EDIT3: Test 3: OK (again, 22 seconds, after that the watermark disappears as well, nice!)

 

What did you exactly changed?
As I have same problem with my script

 

Spoiler

Code:

start /b cmd /c TunMirror.exe >nul 2>&1
ping -n 2 localhost >nul
start /wait /b cmd /c "KMS Server.exe" %port% %epid% %AI% %RI% KillProcessOnPort >nul 2>&1
timeout /t 3 /nobreak >nul 2>&1
"KMS Client.exe" %port% %kmsip% Windows81 >nul 2>&1

Sorry if this post in wrong topic, just quick question: I just download Wondows 8.1 Pro 32-Bit. Can I make upgrade on my existing version of Windows (Windows 8 Pro 32 Bit), or I must install clean instalation?

 

Yes, it's the wrong topic, yes you can upgrade. Insert the DVD and run Setup under windows 8.0.

Tank you, tank you. You too kind. Faster than a speeding bullet.

One Q: Would you please consider modding $oem$ so it leaves Tap installed (also Tunmirror, is that even possible?), so the daily tasks (reactivation) can work faster? That was the way your first $oem$ folder worked, right? (ehm, is it faster that way?)
I know you don't want to maintain 3 versions, but of course for those that want to keep Tap etc. installed, there are ways to adapt your fine scripts for that (install Tap again and don't remove it, run Tun, start Server service, set daily logon task). Correct?

[Edit: In the meantime, I tested the new $oem$ folder (with the extra checks/delays: HighPriority v3) on the "slow" laptop. WORKS!!! now. Great!!!
Next thing is to test if the automatic scheduled tasks slow down this system too much; alternative is to leave the Tap adapter installed etc, as I mentioned above]

 

AutoKMS_VL_ALL-6.0.3.7.exe, run as Admin or normal?
