I have seen windows 8 pro (volume edition expire) but never forcefully shutdown itself like Enterprise evaluation version does. So does the windows 8 pro volume edition go into reduced functionality mode or what exactly happens. Can i use the volume edition after expiry (legally) if there is no reduced functionality.
Evaluation Version will expire after some days like 30, 90, 180, just depend on the time given from developer while Volume editions are not expiring, they will still working with limited function and could be 're-activated' used and KMS Server/Services or MTK! The volume edition has an grace period of up to 180 day's for each cycle. Volume Licenses mainly sold to Corporate's, Education and Government sector.
Hi i do remember with windows 7 background turned black and so on.. With windows 8 what exactly is reduced functionality. Other than occasional pop up of activation screen there seems to be nothing that comes on the way. Please advise.
Is MTK / KMS method safe like Daz Loader, As we use Microsoft account for the windows store and other apps. Seems like i am concerned on the privacy perspective. Also will i be able to get updates without prying eyes of MS. According to me the Daz loader was perfect. Does KMS activation require internet access or it does activate with a KMS generated locally.
AFAIK there is an additional grace of 30 days after KMS activation expires (OOT). Only then the nags start. Note: OOT grace might apply only to official KMS targets (Pro, Enterprise).

MTK is purely safe; it's trusted over a billion of peoples around the world. You can use it without any worries. Yes, of course you can get updates from MS; and KMS activation does not require an Internet connection.
