i managed to install one key, but when I try to use slmgr /ato it gives me an error (No KMS could be contacted etc), any idea how to activate now?
Thank for the quick reply. So, we still have to wait for an other method,or a other kind of key who will activate the system for forever.
As I already mentioned, I found a way how to Change the start Screen Picture in the registry. On an activated System you can Change it by changing the number of "AccentId_v8.00" in the following key: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Accent But on a non-activated System, it doesn't work. I created the key and set "110" for example, but nothing changes on the start Screen. There must be another key that enables the customization after activation. Does anybody know more?
What security is everyone using? built in mse or other? I've installed comodo but I'd like to install kis but it says it's not compatible and then closes install.
can't figure this out. two systems (pro 64bit). one was upgraded from win7 64bit, other was fresh install, both activated. I can change the lock screen image fine for the freshly installed win8. However, doesn't matter what I do for the win7 upgraded system. It will not change the lock screen image and sticks to the default. I can change everything else fine (start image, pattern, color etc). I've taken ownership of the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData\S-1-5-18\ReadOnly\LockScreen_Z\ folder and replaced the LockScreen___1920_1080 image there with one of the other C:\Windows\Web\Screen. No dice. Once replaced, all I get is the plain blue background color on the lock screen - no image. any hints? thanks folks edit1: OK, figured out my dilemma. The replacing image I used had identical properties with the exception of a missing System permission entry. Once I added "System" permission group to the Security tab all is fine. After adding System group to permissions any background switch in settings works now interestingly. Looks like the upgrade from Win7 hosed the permissions somehow.
