    Error: 0xC004F074 The Software Licensing Service reported that the computer coul
    d not be activated. No Key Management Service (KMS) could be contacted. Please s
    ee the Application Event Log for additional information.

    Works on Windows 8 Enterprise, finally activated :). Should I have to run this command 'slmgr /ckms' to be sure when this KMS server goes down, my windows is still activated?

    For people with problems, stop using the CMD and try to activate in Volume Activation Management Tool :).

    a good question, and if this command "slmgr / ckms" put the server down or have different command such as the beginning of the command is to enable this "cscript"?

    Confirmed guys! It's working! Off course you need a Ipv6 to work.

    Super easy to do that, by the way....

    So, YES, IT'S WORKING!
