    Will there be a new offline permanent activation method (OfflineCID) applicable to 24H2? I do not accept KMS4K.

    @oyh023 - Please stop being so argumentative, before somebody on the staff loses their patience.

    And nobody cares. You are free to use whatever old version you choose, but the authors of MAS/TSForge are the ones to decide about how to go forward with their works. Please stop with your aggressiveness against others, you will be listened to less and less, and it will eventually be enough to reason a ban, at least temporarily.

    Btw, you are free to make a fork on Github and do whatever you like.

    What do you mean exit? it "try" and activate it as usual

    replacing and overwriting licenses is bad practice and not considered real activation, sooner or later will cause issues

    --
    all ZeroCID activations will be invalidated if that happen

    After activating it or even checking status (option 8), it immediately exits without saying press any key to return to menu even though both activating it and displaying status works before exiting. It may be because it runs directly on the new Windows 11 Terminal, it doesn't break out to an old style CMD window like MAS does


    Yeah it does cause issues, updating doesn't work, it fails, install breaks essentially

    Both StaticCID and HWID require networking, but StaticCID cannot achieve the advantages of HWID:

    Persists between clean installations on the same hardware
    Persists between Windows 10 / 11 feature upgrades

    Can StaticCID be used when disabling or even completely removing Windows Update first?(HWID requires Windows Update to be enabled in order to run)

    1. Don't disable Windows Update.
    2. We know that StaticCID isn't as good as HWID. SCID is mainly intended for those who want to activate ESU. If you need Windows 10/11 activation, it's best to use Ohook/HWID or KMS_VL_ALL.

    What would happen if you really disable or even remove Windows Update and use StaticCID?

    If you disable WU, you open your computer to being exploited. StaticCID can work on any version, I advise against disabling WU because it's stupid.

    If I would be in a situation that I need to use a computer without Internet, I'd just use KMS38, KMS4K or ZeroCID. If, later I know the PC will be connected to Internet, I'd just use HWID. That's it.

    I don't know why all this anger and rant. We are advanced users (I mean, we know about computers), we just need to "play around" with MAS' activation methods according to the situation.

    And yeah, you will shout: "But what happen if a grandma or a TikToker/Instagrammer wants to activate Windows??? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She/He could end very confused and maybe suffer a brain damage !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" ... Relax, they don't even know what is Windows...

    """Why you want to disable Windows Update while the PC is connected to Internet????? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rifle:""" (maybe I need more exclamation marks...)

    Just stay offline (and of course, use offline activation methods)...
