    Hi all, I'm looking for any tools or methods. Does anyone know where and how to activate windows 8 release preview? I tried smart script and mas but all failed. I got the iso from archive site

    IIRC it is a timebombed build that is long expired. It used different keys and will shutdown regularly.

    MAS is only for 10 and beyond.

    It's simple, light, fast and the theme is very good. I have been trying to use it for years but no activation method found yet so i cannot apply to my PCs
