    You're right. I didn't think about it before saying that... I jumped to a conclusion :(

    Yes you are right its same old trick to downgrade windows 7. I tried this method & worked well. But still prefer clean install as suggested by s1ave77....

    @Tito

    Could be good point to add in to your post....

    How can i re-activate to get another 180 days? My activation runs out in a month. I originally used "Activation Helper" to activate, but when i run it again it says its successful but i still have a month left. So what else should i use?

    Just look one post above yours ;)
    1. Open elevated command prompt
    2. Enter: slmgr /skms whwebsolution.no-ip.org:1688
    3. Enter: slmgr /ato

    And you're done

    Thanks but says the service couldn't be contacted. Although i think it's changed my key...

    Would it be easier to just use the Microsoft Toolkit/AutoKMS? What key should i use with it?

    Thanks, can't try it at the moment though (not home) ... but is it possible to activate if you're already activated and get another 180 days? Or do i have to wait until activation runs out first?

    Recommend using Microsoft Toolkit by CODYQX4 instead of dubious tools from elsewhere.
