Note: This is not a piracy method. It is to install Office 2010 support on your legitimate KMS host. It requires that you have a legitimate Office 2010 KMS key. The original KMS Host available from Microsoft only supports Server 2003 SP2, Win 7 and 2008R2. I found this out the hard way when I upgraded my KMS host to Server 2012 and Office 2010 clients stopped activating. So I extracted the original file from Microsoft, and hacked at the installer until it would work. The results of my work are provided for your perusal. I also built a little batch file which generates a report of KMS status. Download: Office2010KMS_Win8.zipDownload links removed due to DMCA request. Please do not re-add the links.
Many thanks Myrrh for making this available Office 2010 KMS Host support for Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012
Backup from Advanced Tokens Manager That would only work if the rest of the info was provided also uuid.bios = Most likely: uuid.bios = "56 4d 81 c6 cd 3a d8 e4-db 29 75 6d f1 39 ac b9" Otherwise it will not work
Can this be run on top of the windows 8 enterprise hyperv kms host or does the default listening port need to be changed ?
