Nope. Phone activation using MAK is unreliable at best. Nope, KMS activation is just as legit as any other activation; you can update the OS (Windows Update, that is) without looking for new versions of activators. They can detect your activation, yes. It's advisable to block those phone-home packets. Read the OP, there's a trick to stop Windows from calling home.
Is the command slmgr/ ckms ? To revert to default Kms host? Âlso should i backup my activation or just make a image and then restore that image if there is a issue with my OS? Virus etc . I don't plan swapping hardware till next year about this time, mobo , cpu. I should be able to renew the license in 6 months with Kms? Or use whatever version is out at the time to re sync my computer to Kms. Sorry if this not clear typing on ipad I
What do you mean by "default KMS host"? There is no such thing as a default KMS host AFAIK... Backup activation. But if you're using a KMS activator from here, it doesn't make a difference. Ideally, you should be able to renew within 6 months; again, see previous question's reply.
That is why its necessary to sift through all the information found here and find the juicy threads. There is also a wonderful tool called the search area of the forum. Ya know I made a wonderful thread about this in order to clarify activation issues with Windows 8. This just makes me feel a bit sad on the inside lol. See my signature man...
Smorgan Trust me no disrespect to you I have read over your thread to help users like myself to get through the activation. Sometimes I like to talk to forum members just to get clarification to iron out questions that i had trouble finding or could be hard for me to understand I am very new at this KMS activation since i am coming from SLIC bios mods the last 3 years. I just wanted to make sure everything i did was good to go from what i mentioned in my last thread Thanks again great job
I respect u as u r providing greats for users like us to learn more and more.A computer user since 1999. I understand that U are all the leaders in this IT world. Thumbs up CAN I UPDATE WINDOWS 8 PRO W WMC CURRENTLY ACTIVATEDbyMICROSOFT TOOLKITofCODY TO 8.1 I have the windows 8 pro with wmc activated by Microsoft toolkit of mdl (provided by MURPHY78throughTHEPIRATEBAY). which reactivates every 30 days by the installed service. I want to Update using the windows 8.1 iso without loosing any settings and programs currently installed and applied. Is it possibe? and if it is............ 1. WHICH ISO OF WINDOWS 8.1 SHOULD I USE? 2. WHEN SHOULD I USE KMSPICO SERVICE INSTALL, i.e. BEFORE WINDOWS 8.1 UPDATE OR AFTER WINDOWS 8.1 UPDATE INSTALLATION? 3. WILL IT ASK FOR ANY KEY DURING THE UPDATE PROCESS AND IF ASKED WHAT SHOULD I USE? 4. IF ISO INSTALLATION IS NOT POSSIBLE CAN I USE WINDOWS STORE TO UPDATE TO 8.1 BY FIRST INSTALLING KMSPICO AND THEN STORE UPDATE? 5. SHOULD I UNINSTALL KMSSERVICE BY MICROSOFTTOOLKIT OF MDL BEFORE KMSPICO. sorry for long question. But seems to be relevant and serious questions that are not answered yet in MDL.
Sorry, but don't take offence by my saying this, but every one of these issues are addressed here in this forum. The bottom line is that you are making this way too complicated. Get a VL ISO Install Activate Done.
Please i want an active kms server host to activate online without extra software.. or can you suggest me a portable kms server which does not want installation and is clean from viruses to activate local ?
lack of understanding, and they like to send all their info to hacked servers to activate their windows
Here's what i think. Remember when Windows 8 came out, it was possible to receive a legit WMC key free. When your windows was activate by manual kms server (i did that) after that, using the activation by phone your windows 8 was totally legal. Lievre
I'm sorry for a probably stupid questions, I'm new in this field (activation etc.), I've been searching the entire first post and I can't find anything about blocking, stopping, calling, phone-home packets etc. So how to block those phone-home packets? How to stop Windows from calling home? Is it also related to the activation by Microsoft Toolkit? Or just KMS?
Hello, for a test lab, is it possible to install MTK on 1 hyper-v vm, and then point all other vm clients to this VM for activation?
