    Indeed, BypassESU is a truly great project, and I've been using it for many years. Now, I just want to try a newer, more elegant method that doesn't require patching any system files. However, it seems that TSforge's support on the Longhorn platform is still too limited at the moment.

    Except .NET 4.x updates, you don't need to patch any system file if you install updates manually

    even for .NET 4.x, you could use repackaged updated installer instead

    Office activation requires Windows 8 or later.

    A reply:
    Maybe, you are looking for this: guide-free-offline-windows-pre-activation-method-all-versions.88772

    Personally untested. It is technically detailed and has plenty of knowledge put into it.

    Relevant as well: windows-10-11-and-server-evaluation-repository.80979/page-6#post-1858316

    My two cents.

    That's hardly called activation, they just extend the evaluation period, it's hard to read as it is published but that i could find in it.

    Better advise people to just install non evaluation ISOs, they are readily available.

    FYI, Windows Loader does support the regular Server 2008 (NT 6.0), so does alternate KMS emulator frontends like Microsoft Toolkit. A BIOS SLIC mod is another method as well.

    Since this is the TSforge support thread, it would be better if you share some reports in the appropriate thread so that we can diagnose the issue with SLIC emulation.
