    If it's from another machine, no. IID is a combination of hardware and key information, and only the key data can be edited with TSforge.

    If you have a key that can be phone-activated, then you can use /siid to insert that key's data and get the corresponding IID/CID pair for your machine.

    you extract binary data from pkeyconig, extract REF + SKU, use Ref value Using this code -> and get KEy.
    like keyInfo -> origional by @Bob65536 (still member here)

    After activating with ZeroCID/StaticCID/KMS4k/anything, can any of the Windows' services/scheduled tasks related to activation be disabled? After all, Windows is permanently activated.
     
  9. No, those tasks/services are needed to remain activated as well.

    Q?: After installing TSforge on Win 10, will there be any prereq updates to install to get ESUs going, such as an SSU? And if so will WU give them to you?

  11. Just run Windows Update, and it will install everything that is needed. Btw, the first ESU license appeared in update 19045.4957

    It is a very bad sign that TSForge has not been reverse engineered for OSPP activation as there has been no interest from the developer.

    Why is that a bad sign? The effort is simply too high for very little gain. OHook can always be used.

    For information OHook not works on XP and Server 2003 (for Office 2010).

    Is it worth the effort for such an insignificant number of users?

    You have been warned about these repeated requests for office 2010 support on xp. The developers have repeatedly expressed little interest.

    For information, it's been stated many times in this thread, XP and 2003 are over 20 years old.
    Want to play with it, that's fine and I have no issues you doing so.
    But developpers of TSForge are not interrested in putting the effort to make it work on 20 years old OS.

    It's their time and their choice !
    Let's respect it !

    Also, XP and Server 2003 CAN BE key activated and you can find hundreds of keys on the internet.

    Don't agree, take the source code and fork it to build a version that will support whatever Windows version you desire...
    Ever though of looking into activating NT 3.51 or WFWG 3.11
