    Is there perhaps anybody who can try to activate his Windows 8??
    I'm trying to set my KMS_Server temporary online.
    My IP-Address is : 85.93.195.183 - port 1688

    Thank you

    Well I can't quite believe that M$ is allowing a completely free full and permanent activation of Win 8 Pro WMC.

    I just did a completely clean install of Win 8 Pro WMC on a Dell laptop and immediately entered the free WMC key (that M$ sent through their current offer) in the "activate with a new key" box and voila - it is now 100% permanently activated legitimately...

    I know this is only a brief offer from M$ but I would have thought they could surely check to see if the OS was active first before entering the WMC key or flag up the fact that you weren't able to actually get a completely free Win 8 Pro WMC OS from them?

    M$ never cease to amaze?

    This report interests me a lot. Those of us who tried a clean install of Pro WMC from the DVD in the AIO thread found that it does not accept the WMC key, at least not without some trickery. Could you please say what was the source of your Pro WMC, and did you have to apply some tricks?

    I downloaded this iso
    name removed
    which is an AIO and selected to install the Win 8 Pro WMC x86. No trickery was applied after install. I just used the free WMC key.

    Thanks for the info. I suspect that this AIO may contain added licence files for the ProWMC, I will try to have a look.

    Edit:
    Ok, so nothing to see here either :(

    Yes, my ports are open in router, firewall closed, but nevertheless NOGO

    I'll switch to port :80 and try again

    @Mr Been Tried both ports and still a nogo on my end. Error 0xC004F074. 85.93.195.183:80 or 1688. I tried both 7 pro and 8 pro.

    Definitely not a legitimate KMS host because all I'm getting with that server is 0x8007000D, same as with any of the KMS emulators. Maybe it works on Windows 7, but Office 2013 on Windows 8 uses Windows' SPP, which currently doesn't work with any KMS emulator.

    Legitimate KMS hosts become available to VL customers on November 6.
