    If you have limited RAM that could be a issue, but if you have plenty it is a no brainer

    Addendum to my previous post, i can control when and how i install my own PC's, but if you have a KMS (like me) up for family and close friends you never know when they will try to contact the KMS host. (Windows Server 2012 C channel, Office 2010)

    So all you need is a single client trying to activate daily and the count never drops below 25? Would just lowering the refresh interval using slmgr /sri on your day-to-day workstation be enough?

    Still having problems with connecting to my KMS from outside my network. I have setup no-ip and it is updating it when needed. I have opened the port on my router to the port I am using (65000). I also have turned off all firewalls everywhere. I am able to access the net and local PCs from the KMS and vice versa. So is there anything I am missing?

    Huh?? Why not catch the exception, handle it and return to the point of exception.. or insert a WAIT? This script might work but it's very rudimentary..:rolleyes:

    Sounds like a new version of this korean "fake activator" (KJ XXXX). See no reason using such stuff.
