nIGHT Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 1. I know the W8 enterprise can be activated and reactivated again after 180 days using kms, but is the W8 pro be permanently activated? 2. How about W8 pro with WMC, can this be permanently activated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about W8 pro with WMC, can this be permanently activated?A few months ago windows 8 pro WMC could be activated with Microsoft's key which would turn a kms activation to permanent. But that is long gone and there is no way to activate permanently for free. Unless of course you use a leaked key. November Rain has lots of them its just a matter of asking nicely :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November Rain has lots of them its just a matter of asking nicely :DSo, there is a way to make it permanent. ;)Been reading in MDL, and got confused on the data.dat trick too, just looking for a way to make enterprise permanent without reactivation. I guess I'll be content on the pro one for now. Edited July 31, 2013 by nIGHT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'll be content on the pro one for now.@nIGHTIf you are talking only kms activation and not keys,When using Microsoft Toolkit for activation, this is actually Kms Emulation, there is no contact with any Microsoft server so this means it is possible to activate offline. With daily reactivation triggered by AutoKMS (part of Toolkit) it means it reactivates indefinitely with no user interaction so is in fact permanent.As to your question, Enterprise and Win8 Pro WMC can be permanently activated with Toolkit (and so far working on 8.1 preview)(Also the data.dat is old and does not work now and is flagged by MS) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nIGHT Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Do anyone of you used RocketDock, ObjectDock or Nexus instead of 3rd party startmenu alternative? Without a startmenu alternative installed and just one of these desktop docking software, your pc could look like a mac. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This use offline kms right? Or could be skype offline activation? I'm confused by what you mean.

This use offline kms right? Or could be skype offline activation? I'm confused by what you mean. Sorry being a noob on this matter. :D@nIGHTRoughly KMS Emulation as used by MTK, convinces Windows to activate , as if activating against a real Kms server. This means full functionality of Windows for at least 180 days. Because there is no contact with any Microsoft server, this means it is possible to activate offline, with no permission from Microsoft. Re-activating against the emulator at least every 180 days means Windows remains activated indefinitely.Offline Skype activation is used when a key has been blocked by MS. That is you can't activate with a particular key online, but it is still possible to activate with it offline by Skype/phone.It is purely a user preference which method to use.To use Microsoft Toolkit to activate permanently Enterprise -Open Toolkit, click the little Windows Icon (not the Office one) on the bottom, then go to Activation tab and start 'EZ-Activator', it will do all the needed steps for you.That's it, it is now activated and you need do nothing else ever, Autokms will automatically activate at startup and then every 24 hours and reactivate Windows indefinitely.This is the simplest video i could find.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jm_s1zlCpi4(Make sure d/l latest MTK from nsane)Hope this helped :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anakin206 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Offline Skype activation is used when a key has been blocked by MS.The offline activation is used when the number of online activation has reach 0 but the key is not blocked. If the key is blocked the offline activation won't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paft Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I tried Windows 8 in the past and everything worked fine. Interested in 8.1 because I enjoyed the snappier feeling of 8. Thing is gigabyte don't have any 8 drivers an their site for motherboard. Do you think it would be wise to just stay on 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using win 8 pro WMC on an old pentium 4 with a Gigabyte 8i915p Duo Pro Motherboard, and somehow when I moved from XP to Win 8, all the drivers were updated, even the audio which i thought i had to buy a separate sound card just for it to work. Got to say it works surprisingly well on a 8 year old computer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
