    I have a purchased win 8 key i obtained from the win 8 upgrade. When attempting to mannualy activate Office 2013 VL, I accidentally did the following commands from inside the windows\system32 directory.

    slmgr -skms IP
    slmgr.vbs -ato

    Did these commands affect my windows 8 activation in any way and if so, how do i revert back to the Microsoft -skms IP?

    Any public KMS servers available for Office 2013 activation . Servers like kms.cc.columbia.edu , not any local created one :biggrin:

    meanwhile I had some sleep but it seems you are still with your problem. I read about your issue this morning and I have no idea except doing a new clean install. Whatever done to your system is responsible for the malfunction.

    First disable Host caching by running "slmgr /ckhc". Then stop service run "net stop sppsvc"
    Browse to c:\windows\system32\spp & delete everything under Store folder(enable viewing of hidden files before deletion).
    start service by running "net start sppsvc"
    Install KMS client key "slmgr /ipk"
    slmgr /skms xxxxx
    slmgr /ato

    i did that but whey i try to activate with a kms it says no key management service could be contacted. tryed many kms servers and still the same and i think its because of the time server.

    is your time zone adjusted to your local place. If so, try the syncing several times as sometimes it fails at first attempt. same with activating against a server. We had many issues with having to do it more than 5 times and suddenly it made bingo :D
