Question about reactivation

The readme states:

• Any significant changes in the Hardware (such as a motherboard) may deactivate the system.
  It is possible to reactivate a system that was deactivated because of significant hardware
  changes, IF your activation, was linked to an online Microsoft account.

Does this mean if i use the hwid and change a motherboard, i won't be able to run hwid again zo get a new key? Do I have to use a MS account?

how to activate office only

I have a laptop with real windows license in it which comes pre install . but i am worried if i use this activate to office then it might override the windows license too.

So how I can activate office only ?

[Info] These scripts work for activating Windows 11 too.

Because Windows 11 is just a reskin of Windows 10, these scripts work for activating that as well. Tested on Windows 11 Pro.

HWID (option 2) does not activate W10 Home SL

HWID (option 2) does not activate W10 Home SL (spanish)

Something is wrong with PowerShell path in the system,

anyway for now, you can change the command to make it work.

find,
for %%i in (powershell.exe) do if "%%~$path:i"=="" (
and replace it with,
if not exist "%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" (

There's a problem with your office license

I got this pop-up when opening word today, I activated office 5 months ago and it's been working great until today

Not able to activate Office ProPlus 2019

Tried this on other machines and worked on those, but with one of my friends PC's it does not work and spits out this message

question - Is this the final version or are there more upcoming versions for the script ?

It's more of a doubt. not an issue :)

[Question/KMS38/WindowsServer19] Remove KMS38 setup, add a clean licence key

Hello,

I've been searching in the issues already closed, and i have a bit of a struggle, maybe you'll be able to help me understand.

I have setup a Windows server 19, and used the KMS38 activation provided by the MAS_1.4 release.
Today i want to give this server a Real key and remove the KMS38 process.

I have found this here: https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/issues/8#issuecomment-742148274

`To remove the KMS38 activation, run the below commands in the command prompt with admin rights,

net stop ClipSVC
rundll32 clipc.dll,ClipCleanUpState
Reboot the system,
Done.

To remove the Windows KMS activation,
Open command prompt as admin and enter your activation key / generic retail/oem key (non KMS key) with the below >command,

slmgr /ipk ----*****

That's all, normally there is no need to do further cleaning.`

And also this inside https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/blob/master/MAS_1.4/Separate-Files-Version/Activators/HWID-KMS38_Activation/ReadMe_KMS38.txt

`Why is the script setting the specific KMS host to 127.0.0.2 (localhost)?

• By doing this, global KMS IP can not replace KMS38 activation but can be used with Office and
  other Windows Editions.
• In case you don't like it, you can remove it with following codes, open CMD as admin and enter,

set "SPPk=SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform"
reg delete "HKLM%SPPk%\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f" /f
reg delete "HKU\S-1-5-20%SPPk%\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f" /f`

By doing all of this, will i have an "official way" to activate my licence or am i missing something ?

Thanks in advance

activation not successful on windows 8.1 pro

Issue with upgrading Windows 10 using both the scripts and the alternative way that is suggested

Hello at windows addict

I have thoroughly enjoyed playing with and using these scrips. However there is one problem I can’t seem to get around even following your suggestions.
When I go to the advanced options and select change edition of Windows, it says that it cannot change from core home addition, to non-core professional addition. And the way to fix this is to disable Internet and then go to activation and enter the product key which is suggested On the page.
however, even after disconnecting from the wireless network, I still get a message saying that activation has failed and it does not let me proceed. Awhile ago, before I knew you needed to disable the Internet, I tried using the key while still connected. I don’t know if this has damaged it, or if there’s a way to now fix that. I will also say, this was about three months before I knew of these scrips. I was using a key that was on a persons computer who had already used another program to digitally activate windows. But after cross examination, it looks like it is exactly the same key.
Last time I tried this, I was using Windows 10 home version 20 H2. I have now updated Windows to Windows 10 Home version 21H1.
I also tried changing the edition from home to professional from the script, but unsurprisingly, it also failed.
Is there any way to potentially fix this problem? Is this something with the new are versions of Windows 10? Or is it because I originally tried upgrading using that key while online? If the answer to my second question is yes, is there any way to clear that from the system? And if the answer is yes to my first question, could there please be an update or upgrade added to the script which could either change the addition of windows from core home to non-core professional, or a option to trick the key to think that it is activated while entering it in the change my product key field? for example, maybe you could run an option in the script while you enter the key. And when the key looks for activation, the script either sends a message saying it’s activated or quickly digitally activates that key with the computer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work though, it is a great set of scrips.

Cheers
Griff

[Unrelated] Unable to Log On to MyDigitalLife Forums

This is unrelated to this project, however can someone please notify ratzlefatz that I cannot log in to MDL due to it's authentication system going haywire (to the point where instead of logging me in, it's claiming that my "Changes have been saved", instead of logging me in), and I am not receiving any answer via the contact form, thus I have no way of being back to them regarding OfiiceRTool with Office UWP.

Office Finding Non-Genuine License(s)

hi,
I have used your instruction to fix the genuine office problem but somehow office is identifying the license,
Either Microsoft knows about these activations or multiple uses of this code may have drawn their attention.
I have noticed indisputably that the notice starts popping up every time an update is launched.
This was fixed by repairing the office (offline).
I also suspect that because this code has been used for quite some time, this code is gradually becoming less effective.
I think that the update should solve this problem.
It can also be because the KMS server may have been found or may have some flaw in it's working.
I appreciate your work and research on it, trying to make it better.
hope this finds you well!

[Question] Office 365

Can this script do an expired Office 365?

Not that I really need the script to be able to do Office 365, though...
I can just install Office 2019 and use this script to activate it.
I'm just curious, whether or not the script can activate Office 365 and also use the re-newal task.

Also, massive thank you for writing this script!
the All-in-One version is extremely cool!

activtion related query

this activation is not a genuine windows activation right ??

[Question] In-place upgrade of Windows 10 edition using MAS?

Is it possible to upgrade / change the license of an existing Windows 10 installation using MAS without changing existing files, settings, and applications (e.g. by reinstalling the OS)? Example: Win10 Home > Pro, or Win10 Home to Enterprise. Windows 10 seems to normally offer this functionality directly through the Windows Store.

Office Identifying non genuine licences

Hi @WindowsAddict,
Office has been identifying office professional plus 2019 license every month.
even after doing a clean install the problem scemes to come back every now and then.
Is there a solution to this problem? this problem subsides only by reinstalling the software.
Thanks.

Unable To Change Windows 10 pro to pro country spacefic.

Hi,
I was using this script to activate my friend's pc but there is an error when trying to activate to professional country-specific.
the error is:

Getting Office notifications

Office is pulling a notification in which is detected that the software isn't original and I should buy it. So maybe they discovered the way to ignore or undo the MAS activation?

The image is in spanish but it says: "Your license is not original and you could be a software falsification victim. Avoid interruptions and keep your files safe with original Office now".

I tried both HWID and KMS both of them gave me the same error.

HWID Fail in Windows 10.0.19043.906

Hi dear friend @WindowsAddict

I tried to activate using your latest version of HWID, but it shows that this version is not supported, and I remember being told that because this version is based on 19041 it should be supported, could you check?

Thank you in advance.

Windows Not Activating With HWID on New Computer

I just built a brand new machine, and installed Windows using the install media from their website (skipped putting in a key during install). Before even trying to activate, it never showed the 'Activate Windows' watermark, and it set my customizations when I added my Outlook account. However, when I went to activate it with HWID 1.4, it failed with error 0xC0EA000A.

I tried troubleshooting steps and a manual install with the same error. In the About page of my device, it has a product ID of 00326-10000-00000-AAXXXX; I'm not sure what this means.

The activation troubleshooter says 'It looks like the hardware on this device has changed' with the same error code as the HWID activator.

Is this a problem with my version of Windows, the servers or the activator?

use .zip for releases

A new install of Windows doesn't come with software to unpack a .7z file. It would be handy to have the release as a .zip file which can be extracted without additional software.
