Windows 8 KMS Activation

downgrade from w8 pro wmc to w8 pro:
regedit
hkey local machine => software => microsoft => windows nt => current version
export current version reg backup
change edition id from "ProfessionalWMC" to just "Professional"
run install disk
select "upgrade"
it should bypass the "unable to downgrade" checker if it's able to complete compliance check
if that doesn't fix 100% you may have to delete the "WMC" in the digitalproductid4 binary

note: this has taken from somewhere in this forum.

 

The first and only time I tried WMC was win7beta build 7000.

 

so ur lucky guy!

 

1. step
Install Gogo6 (IPv6 Tunnel)
I needed to set compatibility mode to Windows 7 before installing.
Use this server address in Gogo6: anon-amsterdam.freenet6.net

2. step
cmd (admin mode)
ping benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net
slmgr /skms benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net
slmgr -ato

(If you have a licence, enter it before submitting the -ato command with slmgr /ipk 1234-LIC3NC3-NUMB3R-H3R3)

Here's a picture for proof and timestamp etc. (I'm norwegian)

Short story. I needed a IPv6 tunnel to connect to KMS server: benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net

I have windows 8 pro .. by the way its work after changing the compatibility thanks guys

 

Did you install it with WMC??

 

Epic, this worked. Thanks!

 

Thanks guys finally got it. Used all the instructions above set the DNS. Didn't work at first so used tunnelbroker Set up the tunnel and set the firewall rule. Tried again and beyond my expections it worked. Tried the Go Go thing. But it said it wasn't compatiable with my current windows which was a big deal.

I was able to activate by:
Downloaded gogo and tried it but said it needed .NET Framework 2.0 (oh well)
Changed dns IPv4 to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
slmgr /skms benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net
slmgr /ato
.
SUCCESS! ...but then none of the start page apps were working. They each crashed when I tried to use them.
.
So I reinstalled Windows 8 and now that same technique no longer works. Anyone know what's happening?
