    I don't think buying the Key for $14.99 then adding to is a loophole, that has always been there.
    then adding the FREE WMC Key will also work. that has always been there ....

    I Currently have win 8 pro activated for 180 days via kms(thanks everyone). If I buy a upgrade version, can I use it to activate pro permanently? Im not against doing a fresh install but it would be easier to not have to as I have 8 set up nicely already. Im looking at some deals on Ebay for upgrade disks. Any suggestions are appreciated. :)

    Thanks s1ave77, a couple of questions if you dont mind:
    I've never seen the "cscript" part of the command before. Is it part of what I should type?

    When you say activate online later, is there an actual site I go to for this or do I do this in the computer properties area?

    Sorry for the noobness o_O

    I don´t like these annoying popups, with "cscript" all output stays in CMD :D. When no KMS-Adress is assigned, "/ato" will activate your system, if online done.

    I love those "stupid popup script things"
    I started using them a long time ago as Beta Tester....

    also I found that many people have "HACKS" installed that STOP the use of cscripts ...

    so when I recommend they use scripts and they say it does not work .... :) :)

    Stop using cscript.exe will cause problems activating Office, for which you definitly need it.

    I have a key from MS but I used it on a x86 install of office 2013. I though I could use the same key on x64 ver but it will not activate. So I am looking for a way to use KMS if there is a way.

    Since the same key works for X86 as it does for x64 !!! you can not have both versions online at the same time ...
    My Office key works for both versions... but I never try to have both online at the same time....

    It lets me install the key but it tells me that the key has been used. Now it is giving me a notification about activating. I check the x86 install and it is still activated and no problems. But I want to use x64 ver of Windows 8 and x64 ver of office 2013.

    what I use is this:
    win key + x
    command prompt as admin
    copy and paste
    as notice I always /remhst so that I can get all Official updates.
    I also always remove -skms for windows...
    have no problems - with Activating Office 2013 or Windows.
