how do i check if its successfully activated? although it says activation success, how do i make sure its really activated? shouldnt the watermark disappear?
You can check by : slmgr /xpr You must restart the explorer to refresh the watermark and other blocked setting
With the new server it worked. haha. I remember back then people were getting theirs to activate and mine couldn't. I left it to activate for almost 48 hours. Still didn't work. Today it did with the new server. Thanks OP. The moment it activated on my computer, I immediately went to my other computer and ran it. Worked there too.
how do i activate office using this code? it gives me a no script error, im confused as to how i can activate with office 2013, id like it for 180 days instead of 30 days cscript %WINDIR%\System32\slmgr.vbs /skms kms.sjtu.edu.cn
Open a cmd in admin. Copy and paste without quotes: "slmgr.vbs /skms kms.sjtu.edu.cn" Now wait until Windows says "KMS machine name set to..." Then "slmgr.vbs /ato" That's it.
Those keys are safe to post lol..... They come with WIndows 8 if you don't use any key. Its sort of the "trial" key.
Blackperl's problem is that the key he used before actually was a Windows 8 Enterprise key, BUT as you can see on the key list, it wasn't a volume license key, and I think only those are accepted by KMS servers - right? But there actually IS a volume license key for Windows 8 Enterprise on the list, so he should try that one instead. Best, Taucher
does it work for microsoft office 2013 too? he said something in his first post about activating office 2013 also
