    Hi MDL,

    i have an Alienware M15X running Windows 8.1 with windows media player Professional now i have tried the Microsoft Toolkit 2.5.2 from this website and also KMSpico and both of these programs don't work, the Microsoft Toolkit gives me error "error code 0x8007000D" i have disabled my firewall and stopped my AV just in case it was interfering with the ports but still same error,
    Im just annoyed at seeing the "Your Windows License will expire soon" "You need to activate windows in PC Settings" "Go to PC Settings" "Close"

    What can i do,

    anything is greatly appreciated

    TIA

    Cheers
    Toff

    Disabling AV is sometimes not enough, better create exclusions :cool2:. In MTK in 'Settings' go to 'Local Host Bypass' and change the method, than try again.

    AV still stops the Bypass, can be seen from that 'data is invalid' error. Create an explicite exclusions for C:\Windows\AutoKMS\AutoKMS.exe, The FAQ tab of the 'Readme' button gives more details.

    Might need to uninstall AV, then re-install after activation.

    Hmm, that is kind of suspicious :g:. As the output indicates it was activated.

    How did you install ... first Pro then Upgrade, or directly from a ProfessionalWMC media? How was it activated first hand? Where did you get the ISO?

    Check Library of Task Scheduler (main one not any sub-folder) for any KMS related entry.


    You could check KMS_VL_ALL script solution by abbodi1406 from my signature as last resort.

    If that still fails check your system with (in admin command prompt):
    Code:
    sfc /scannow
    Code:
    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    You're welcome buddy :D. Have a nice day likewise. Run the script from time to time to srtay activated, as ProfessionalWMC only has a 45 days grace :cool2:.
