Done that today. My laptop asus came with win8home, used win7 pro, and now win 10 ltsb. Fresh install win7 pro, no need do install drivers, run dazloader to activate, just extracted GenuineTicket.xml, format/fresh install win10 pro with a multiple editions win10 home+pro with a ei.cfg file into sources folder dvd. no internet conection, place GenuineTicket.xml in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\ClipSVC\GenuineTicket, reboot, and is now win 10 pro is digitally activated format again / fresh install, conect to internet, digitally activated done, simple. now i will return to 2016 enterprise ltsb
I'm confused, why did you install windows 10 twice? don't you only need to install win 7-->get genuineticket.xml-->reformat-->instal win 10 without internet-->place genuineticket.xml there-->done. Also, would this work if you have UEFI bios?
Yes, impossible to activate with gatherosstate.exe route Yes, I confirm for : _ windows install offline during first logon. Thanks.
So, you dont need the upgrade part? Just install a fresh windows 10 thats it? Another thing, I want to do this with my windows 8.1 pro laptop, will it work too with MS activation toolkit? I have my windows saying its activated windows 8.1 pro. If im understanding correctly, the only thing i need to do is: 1- Get that "ticket" which i dont know where to get it (please point it out for me) 2- Install Windows 10 (pro?) 3- inserted the xml (where do i insert this xml file?) thanks in advanced
Please read carefully:[/QUOTE] - So, to make this perfectly clear, first i need to downgrade to Windows 7 SP1, correct? then 1.1 Install all necessary drivers before the next step otherwise your hardware id may not match the Windows 10 hardware id. 2. Generate a genuine ticket of your installation by: 2.1 Copy gatherosstate.exe from your downloaded Windows 10 10240/10586/14393 ISO to your installation which should be upgraded. Question: Which installation? Which Directory exactly where, in my current system, which directory? 2.2 Run it on your activated and validated Windows. It'll output GenuineTicket.xml. Save this on a USB thumb drive or something. 2.3 Then do a fresh install with your suitable w10 ISO, skip to enter key at setup procedure. 2.4 Once it's installed make sure your internet connection is DISABLED/do not enable the internet connection! Reboot w10. 2.5. Copy GenuineTicket.xml to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\ClipSVC\GenuineTicket\ of your w10 installation and reboot again. 2.6. Connect online, it should activate. This is it, and its not possible to make the same operation through WIndows 8.1 pro? Thanks!
Thanks, but im just confused about this part: 2.1 Copy gatherosstate.exe from your downloaded Windows 10 10240/10586/14393 ISO to your installation which should be upgraded. Question: Which installation? Which Directory exactly where, in my current system? To which directory showld i copy the xml file to??
Just copy gatherosstate.exe to your desktop of the windows 7 installation that was activated with daz loader and run it from there.
