    But what did you change from earlier today?

    I had to format my pc and then i forgot to allow ICMP rule to my main's pc firewall. I don't know if it was the cause because i think this rule is for allowing ping my pc. Anyway, happy ending all good !!! :)

    Hi guys.

    Just a quick question. I put my hand on the tokens.dat/data.dat file from a KMS Host (KMS Server). Saddly yhe key was "erased" from the registry with the "slmgr.vbs /cpky" command.

    If I install Windows 2008 R2 (same as the server), erase the key, replace the file from the one I took, Windwos ask me to enter the serial number... which I don't have.

    Is there anything I can do? Although I don't have the key, I know that it was used only once so there is 5 activation left on it.

    Thanks!

    Strange Date in Office Activation Status

    Hi
    I've installed Office 2013 in pc with windows 7. It's activated successful (Activated with "Office 2013 Activation Helper.bat"), but when I see the activation status, appears following message:

    SKU ID: 41499869-4103-4d3b-9da6-d07df41b6e39
    LICENSE NAME: Office 15, OfficeProPlusMSDNR_Retail edition
    LICENSE DESCRIPTION: Office 15, RETAIL channel
    BETA EXPIRATION: 01/01/1601
    LICENSE STATUS: ---LICENSED---
    Last 5 characters of installed product key: T28P9
    -----------------------------------------
    -----------------------------------------
    ---Exiting------------------------------

    My question is: What is BETA EXPIRATION: 01/01/1601 ???:confused:

    Thanks for any answer!

    OK. However, License Status is saying: LICENSED. :confused:

    You are out of luck, have been trying to do the same thing without success
    ...it seems Win 2008 R2 is much pickier about not having the key as Win 2012 does

    Well.... hope I will be the one "assigned" with the upgrade of the KMS server then...

    Last option : Use VmWare workstation ot Virtualize a psysical computer... the physical computer here will be the VmWare server from ESX....

    Basically what i have found is you need the original OS what had the VOLUME:CSVLK key inserted. Virtualizing the physical computer in that case might just work.

    Unlike the Windows Server 2012 token Windows Server 2008 R2 needs the original OS what had the VOLUME:CSVLK key inserted, example:
    The original KMS_C_R2 hyper-v package can be altered to support the Office 2010 and Office 2013 VOLUME:CSVLK's
    A clean install with just the tokens.dat from KMS_C_R2 can not be altered to support the Office 2010 and Office 2013 VOLUME:CSVLK's, well it will restore activation of office version(s), but not Windows activation itself.

    @hack, you agree on this statement. Right?
