    Would be awesome if he could come up with a patch for x64, his is the only x86 one not causing high CPU usage.

    Is there now any working solution for x64, that doesn't produce such a high cpu load?

    I really didn't understand why you guy's dealing with pirated stuff and than using paid downloader sites for to store the files. In many cases as like this one, it's impossible to download without an paid account, which is useless and to expensive for just 1 files, to signup for an account and from the Free and Unpaid accounts we couldn't download from!

    In real, stealing from others and let others pay for stuff which may even didn't work!!

    Actually we don't need a patch at all.
    The solution is described here http ://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/35379-What-are-the-options-to-activate-Windows-8-RTM-if-any/page234?p=611701&viewfull=1#post611701 .
    Anyone who has some kind of programatistic skills can create a simple program that will run on boot and just kill that thread et voila! No watermark at all with a very clean solution that doesn't messes with system files at all. Since process hacker can do it there would sure be a way to get the thread name and just kill it via our own simple program automagically.

    Right now I'm in college, in a few hours I will be in home. And just to be sure, we are talking here about the pc settings screen that pops every 3 hours or so requiring activation right.

    I remembered I have posted it in another forum that I participate.
    mediafirecom/ ?m5j0p2alt8jpyar

    This is a old version, as you have to manually execute it. I can make a easier version. I have add x86 option but it will probably not work as I havent tested it. I would be glad if someone could post a x86 twinui.dll so I can check the function offset.

    if you dont provide automated way, this can still work, with making new task right? you can make it starting after booting into windows, one time only.

    That's what I pretend to do, a automatic version that you can just on windows startup.

    Amazing isn't it, I can spend 2 days trying to do something and fail, then a college kid comes along and says, yeah I did that already in a lunch break :p (sorta), makes me wonder why I even bothered trying. Oh and I got two strikes with my Mediafire account from hosting those files I put up, so be careful sephirothrx7, maybe you'll need to use a different hosting service, also whoever here is reporting files, please go find a nice forum with bunnies to read about, instead of this one.

    New version;)
    sendspace. com/file/o9c4p8

    Just double click it and you are done.
    If you guys want, you can also put the exe on %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup , so it will execute whenever you log on windows.

    Thanks for the tip. I'm not a kid (21 years), Im from Brazil so sometimes I get confused with College, University and the other english terms. Here college is for teenagers, if I'm not wrong its different in USA.
    Right now I'm only sure it will work on Pro x64, other versions I cant guarantee.
