    Can I activate Windows 8 Pro if I installed Windows Media Center?

    I know what is written in the thread but I couldn't understand it.

    Here is what i did... Installed Win7 Pro in to VM, installed KB2691586, installed productkey from txt file, made online activation and KMS seems to be working... i didnt bother with copying any of tokens or pkey files... i need to see now if i can install it in to Win8 Pro or Server 2012...

    Nor should show partially. But we both know that sooner or later the key will be blocked, a matter of time. :(

    KMS host keys allow for 10 reactivations per machine. It probably considered the VM as "the same machine" and activated. The key will be permanently blocked soon enough. Since it's a KMS host key for Windows client it will also install on Windows 8, and it will only activate client editions. It will not install on Server 2012 (which will only accept server-type KMS host keys, and activate every edition).

    KMS Host Keys cannot blocked by MS.
