Copying does't work as however the info is generated, it is locked to the PC by creating HWID's. I have found out how to restore to same PC after a reformat but there is nothing we can do to put this info to different PC as it's hardware locked.
Yes, that's what I figured. Has anyone figured out how the change of one or two numbers in the serial ID of a hard drive will affect the relevant encrypted activation files? Does it change a specific area in the file(s), or their entire content?
No services and does not run anything 24/7. It's launched by one of 2 tasks in Task Scheduler, which runs AutoKMS which uses KMSEmulator to activate, then both close when done, leaving nothing running afterwards. It takes 0 resources to have the task as the task scheduler itself is part of windows and always runs, running the tasks when needed.
Notice: Avast 6 beta false postive Avast 6.0.986 Beta is detecting AutoKMS.exe and KMSEMulator.exe as Win32:Malware-gen Also, I clicked "Available" on the "Activation" tab next to "Rearm Office 2010:" it said that I had 5 reams left. But when I installed Auto-Rearm it said that I had 0 reams left. Thanks for your work, Carlos
Nothing I can do about AV, just exclude it. As far as the zero sometimes the backup involved in this screws up and therefore doesn't count, causing sometimes it to say zero. It's intermittant and timing related so it may work fine later. This is one known bug I think V2.1 has fixed.
My version of Avast doesn't allow whitelisting files, but only directories. In other words, I won't add the whole Windows directory to my ignore list. Although, I'm not complaining, I will just active manually.
For Avast Free edition select the Real Time Shields, Behavior Shield, Expert Settings and add AutoKMS and KMSEmulator to the Trusted Processes option. Make sure that Avast hasn't moved one or both of them to the Virus Chest. If so, then restore them. You can run Autokms manually to make sure your settings work with Avast.
Maybe I'll be able to add different directory and uninstall by looking at where the task is pointed to. That being said, AV's with this kind of limitation is stupid. Something that annoys me in NIS in in 18.5 update they actually removed the ability to exclude an item from scanning that didn't exist, meaning you have to first exclude it from AutoProtect, create it, then exclude it from manual scan so the background scan doesn't run god knows when and delete it. Easiest way would be me to make an AutoKMS folder inside windows folder like I do with AutoRearm.
Hopefully that will work for him. I know some AV (AVG sucks) create hell with doing things. With AVG I find I have to totally disable AV first to be able to create the files to exclude them at all (else they get destroyed immediately). Nobody should have to 100% disable protection to exclude something they know is safe. AV makers are damn nazis, because I know they make this purposely hard to discourage this kind of thing.
Been waiting months for this. Finally an activator that keeps the 180 day activation. Kudos to all. Installed and activated my VL edition with no problems. Using MSE as my AV program. Turn off Real-time protection before installing. When you turn it back on it will pick up 2 false positive viruses. Choose to Allow them. Thanks to Developers: CODYQX4 Bosh And Thanks to: letsgoawayhell, ZWT, and other contributors.
Thanks for the feedback, I know that it is a false positive, but I wonder if I need to allow it to pass through the firewall?
