Activator for windows 8 corporate. Plan of activation stages. Using the program you can activate

KMSAuto is a convenient and fast activator for Windows operating systems and Microsoft Office products. In this article, we will look at the main features of the utility, learn about its strengths and weaknesses, and offer a direct link to download the activator for free on your Windows 8.

Why activation is needed

The Windows operating system can operate in an inactive state, but at the same time it loses some important functionality. Not only that, the user will be constantly harassed by messages about the need to enter a license key, he will also not be able to access personalization and you will constantly have to contemplate a black screen.

But this is not the worst thing, the operating system can reboot whenever it wants, naturally, at this time the user’s data is lost. In general, Microsoft developers have done everything to make their customers pay. It is for these reasons that we are forced to activate our “Eight” using KMS Auto.

Advantages and disadvantages

Let's consider the positive and negative features characteristic of the activator.

Advantages:

Easy activation of not just Windows, but any version of Office.
Support for any versions of new generation operating systems; for older operating systems, for example, Windows Loader is used.
Activation does not make changes to the system; you receive a licensed product, which continues to be updated.
Works with any architecture, including 32/64 Bit.
Activation that has been applied is not deleted by the antivirus; you can also set automatic reactivation after a certain period of time.
High performance of the program and low system requirements.
Ease of use.

Flaws:

Does not support Windows 7 and older OS.
Some "manual" builds are also not supported.
Danger of use in offices and other commercial organizations. At the first check, the hack will be detected, and you will be subject to an article about piracy.

Whether to use the program or not is entirely your business; we have only provided introductory information on the basis of which a conclusion should be drawn.

How to use

As we have already said, using this activator is very simple. However, let's take a closer look at the process:

Download the archive from KMS Auto and unpack it.
There is no need to install the utility, just run it with administrator rights.
Click the activation button and select the mode:
1. Windows;
2. Office.
Wait for the process to complete and enjoy a fully functional system. You can check whether activation has occurred using the combination of “hot buttons” Win+PauseBreak. In the window that opens you will find the necessary information.

In some cases, in order for activation to take place and the changes to be applied, you need to restart your computer.

Video

You can learn more about the activator in the video below. Instructions for its use are also shown here. If anything is unclear to you, ask your questions in the comments.

Download

At the very bottom of this page, right after the table, you will find a button where you can easily download the latest version of the activator for your Windows 8 KMS Auto. The archive is password protected and can be found in the package. The application does not require installation.

Attention: in some cases, anti-virus software perceives our utility as malicious software and removes it immediately after extracting it from the archive. To prevent this from happening, create an exception initially or temporarily disable your defender.

The Windows 8.1 operating system, unlike previous versions, does not require entering a serial number during installation, but nevertheless requires activation. From the moment of installation, you have exactly three days to activate your copy of the operating system.

If you don't do this, you will suffer some unpleasant consequences, namely:

Limited personalization capabilities (it is impossible to change the desktop wallpaper, set an avatar to a system account, etc.)
It is impossible to remove from the desktop the message about the need to activate a copy of the operating system
A window periodically pops up reminding you that activation is required.
Forced system reboot every few hours
Microsoft does not officially confirm, but many users report problems with the printing and imaging subsystem (printers and scanners do not work) on a non-activated operating system.

If we are talking about legal activation, then private users have access to activation by simply entering the serial number, activation directly via the Internet, or (if both methods are not available) activation by phone. Large corporate users also have access to activation using their own dedicated server (so-called KMS activation).

From the above it follows that if a user wants to “buy Windows with a 100% discount” he has two options - find a working serial number or emulate a working KMS activation server. If you do not plan to update Windows, then a serial number will do, but to make your Windows fully functional, only the second method is suitable. Let's consider it.

So, to activate, do the following:

The Windows operating system is perhaps the most popular of all operating systems. According to statistics, various Windows platforms are installed on 89% of all personal computers. It is also possible to install it on smartphones. If you purchased a computer, laptop or netbook “clean”, that is, without an operating system installed, it is only suitable for watching movies or playing games via a flash drive or disk drive, if the device has one. An operating system is required to access the Internet. But all this pleasure costs money. So, a licensed “OS” will cost you. within 150 - 200 $, depending on the classification. Add to this the installation (but this is a small thing, around $5). In computers (laptops) with Windows pre-installed, these costs are already included in the price of the device itself. But there may be pitfalls here too. Some manufacturers install, as it were, a licensed system, but in reality it turns out that this is just a program with a test period of 30 days. After which, you need to activate the system by entering the license key. And it’s good if it was provided to you. And if not? Need to buy. This can be done by purchasing a Windows installation disk at retail outlets for the same $150 - $200, or purchasing a key from Microsoft via the Internet for the same money. But there is also a cheaper way to enjoy the benefits of the World Wide Web using Windows: installing a pirated system and then activating it through special programs - activators. But even here you may be disappointed. Almost all antivirus programs recognize activators as a threat (virus) and do not allow activation, either by blocking the process or simply deleting the program. Indeed, many activators have various viruses embedded in them, so it takes time, patience and skill to choose a safe program. But after activation, you will receive an almost full-fledged operating system that you can “customize” and use all the functions of the licensed system.

Thank you so much.
An ocean of sites has been shoveled.
I even downloaded several virus versions of activators.
Only your activator helped.
Fast, simple and effective!!!111)))

Thanks a lot! Only your activator helped!

When purchasing a new operating system, you will be sent a product key. In fact, you don’t even buy the system image itself, but the rights to use it. The key is required so that you can use Microsoft products in accordance with the terms of your purchase. The key is a specific sequence of characters with which the company can easily identify your right to use the company’s products and services.

Now let's move directly to the activation stage and obtaining a license. There are two main ways to activate Windows 8 and 8.1. The first of them, the simplest and most common, is activation via the Internet. This is the fastest and most convenient way to obtain a license for Windows 8. Obtaining a license in Windows 8 and 8.1 is the same.

Activation via the Internet

To do this, you will need to log in as an administrator or have administrator rights. This is necessary so that you can make changes to the operating system during the activation process. You will also need a stable Internet connection.

Activation stage plan:

1) Check your Internet connection. It must be active.

4) In the Windows Activation window, select “Activate”. This will initiate online activation.

5) After this, you will be asked to enter your product license key, if you do not have it yet, then hurry to purchase it - Buy a license key

6) If the key is entered correctly, as well as if the key is valid, a message will appear below: “The code worked! You can continue when you are ready." If this does not happen, then there are two options: either something is wrong with the key, or problems with determining the authenticity of the key.

7) Click the “Activate” button.
Your copy of the operating system has now been successfully activated. Now you will use a full-fledged product without restrictions.

Activation by phone

This activation method should be used if you do not have an Internet connection or have problems when trying to activate the operating system using the first methods. The disadvantage of this method is that you will need to call the specified phone number. And these are additional costs.

To activate, you need to perform the following sequence of actions:

1) Check the functionality of the telephone line and call permission (For example, if you try to make a call to a number in another country at work, your call will most likely be rejected by your company’s robot for security reasons).

2) Go to the System panel. To do this, you can go from the Control Panel to the following path: Control Panel\System and Security\System or press the Windows + W key combination, then search for the word System and select the desired tab.

3) You need to find the Windows Activation section, then click the “Learn more about Windows activation” or “Change product key” button.

4) Select “Activation by phone”.

5) You need to choose the closest location to you (But preferably the country whose language you speak).

6) Perform all actions dictated by the robot or operator.

7) Write down the confirmation IDs. It’s best to put it on a piece of paper so you don’t have to call a second time if you lose it.

The eighth version of Windows OS belongs to the type of software products that must be activated in order to function normally or use all features. Read on to learn how to activate Windows 8. Here are several basic methods that will allow you to fully use the system with or without entering a key.

Why do you need to activate Windows 8?

If anyone doesn’t know, the operating system itself of this modification works normally only for 30 days from the date of installation on a computer or laptop. After this, quite serious problems can begin.

A message constantly appears on the screen stating that the system is not activated, and some functions are simply blocked. So, for example, it is completely impossible to change the design theme, change the wallpaper (instead, a black background appears indicating the lack of activation), programs spontaneously minimize to the tray, and instead of them a window pops up asking you to enter the Windows 8 activation key, finally, the system starts rebooting every few hours for no apparent reason. Agree, this causes discomfort and, to put it mildly, irritation. But even in such a situation there is a way out.

Windows 8 activation key

The very first and correct legal solution is to use the key that is supplied when purchasing or downloading the installation distribution of the system from the official Microsoft resource.

Activation of Windows 8 can be done at the installation stage by entering a 25-digit combination in a special field. If this procedure was postponed, there is also nothing to worry about.

The problem of how to activate Windows 8 already at the stage of using the installed system can be solved quite simply by calling the computer properties, where you need to click on the hyperlink for detailed information about the procedure, select the Windows activation section and proceed to change the key. Next, enter the product code indicated on the box (disk) or received electronically to the registered e-mail address.

After this, when choosing an activation method (key verification), if you have an Internet connection, it is better to choose this one. In this case, the system itself will send the data to Microsoft and verify the authenticity of the code. If there is no Internet, you can contact a representative of the corporation by phone and simply dictate the available key.

How to delay activation?

You can do otherwise by constantly extending the trial period of using the system. This approach cannot be called a full-fledged activation, but in some cases knowledge of this technique can be useful.

To defer, you will need to launch the command console with administrator rights (cmd in the Run menu), and then enter the line cscript %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs -rearm or the combination shown in the image below.

After executing the command, the system must be rebooted, after which the countdown of a new 30 days of trial use will begin. If you want to know how much time is left before the deadline, you can run the cscript command %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs -dlv in the same Shell (but note that this option only works without problems for four months).

Disabling the activation offer in the registry

Now a few words about how to activate Windows 8 through the registry. Again, by and large, this is also not activation, but simply disabling the corresponding requirement.

How to activate Windows 8 in this case? First, you need to open the system registry editor with the regedit command in the Run console (Win + R). It goes without saying that you need to run the execution as the system administrator. The editor uses the HKLM branch, in which you need to go down the directory tree through the SOFTWARE section and find the Activation folder in the SoftwareProtectionPlatform directory. On the right side there is a DWORD parameter named Manual, which must be assigned the value 1 by calling the parameter change menu either by double-clicking or from the right-click context menu. After saving the changes, the system will be completely restarted and the message will no longer appear.

In some cases, this technique does not work, and again the question of how to activate Windows 8 becomes relevant. You may have to find the NotificationDisabled parameter in the same section and assign the value of one to it, after which you should completely reboot the system.

Using KMS activator

There is another alternative method to solve the problem of how to activate Windows 8 without a key. In this case we are talking about the universal activator KMSAuto Net (aka KMS Activator).

To use it, you need to fulfill several prerequisites in the form of installing the .NET Framework version no lower than 4.5 and downloading the program from a reliable source, since otherwise you can get a set of viruses instead of the activator. When downloading and starting the applet, it is advisable to completely disable the protection (standard antivirus and Windows Defender).

How to activate Windows 8 using this utility? Nothing could be simpler. We launch the application as administrator, on the main page click the activation button, after which we select system activation (if you are offered to install a special GVLK key, you must agree with it). The offer of permanent reactivation should also be accepted (this will save you from constantly starting the program manually after the license expires). After confirmation, the necessary actions will be performed, and a notification will appear in the window below that the system has been successfully activated. As in all previous cases, we reboot the system and work as if nothing had happened.

What to prefer?

From all of the above, it becomes clear that all the methods are quite simple, with the exception of actions with the system registry. However, if you approach the issue of system activation from a practical point of view, the easiest way is to use the KMS utility, although this is in some sense illegal. If you carry out such actions in a legal way, you cannot do without a key (product code). And the issues of delaying or disabling messages with code entry requirements seem irrelevant, although knowledge of such techniques obviously would not hurt.

As soon as the new OS from Microsoft Windows 8.1 was presented to the general public, users turned to search engines with the question - how to activate it? Naturally, in an attempt to hack Windows, people are looking for something free. There are options for paid activation, but clearly no one is interested in them. For people who understand why the activation procedure is needed at all, we have prepared a short introduction that will tell you about all the nuances that may arise in the process.

Microsoft's OS, or rather its non-activated version, has a number of limitations:

access to various settings is limited (you cannot change your personal photo or even your desktop background);
in the lower right corner the inscription “Windows 8.1 [Edition] Build 9600” is constantly displayed (after the trial period has expired);
a watermark is visible on the desktop;
the computer restarts after 12 hours of operation;
Sometimes there are failures when working with printing devices.

But the presence of all these signs at the same time is not guaranteed. At first, you may not notice problems at all, but in the future they will definitely begin to annoy you. Now let's talk about how to properly activate Windows 8.1 and what program you need to use for this.

Solving the problem using KMS Auto

The KMS Auto utility does its job perfectly. It has existed long enough for tens of thousands of users to recognize the program and leave many positive reviews about it. Moreover, we will present you with clear step-by-step instructions with screenshots that will show you how to activate Windows 8.1.

Attention! Activating Windows is an illegal process, we do not encourage you to use the activator, the article was written to familiarize the user with the functionality of the KMS Auto software.

In order to “cure” Windows 8.1, we need to download the activator itself, it is located at the bottom of the page. Download it and find it in a folder on your PC.

Let's make sure that our system is not activated. To do this, open the side menu (mouse pointer to the lower right corner) and click on the magnifying glass. In the panel that opens there is a search line, enter the word “system” into it and select “Computer Information” from the result.

As you can see, the system is not activated yet, let's correct this misunderstanding. Let's launch the activator. We need to click the big button that says “Activate”.

Important! You only need to run KMS Auto Net Auto NET as an administrator. To do this, right-click on the file and select the desired item.

Now you need to click on the “Activate Windows” button.

As a result, our system will be successfully processed, and we will see the following inscription.

Sometimes, when the operating system is updated, activation is reset, and to prevent this from happening, KMS will prompt us to create a task for automatic reactivation. We agree and click “Yes”.

We check the state of our system again in the same way as we did in point 2. The result is obvious. We now have a licensed product with full Microsoft support, OneDrive storage and an update package.

We tested activation on OS Windows 8.1 Professional. KMSAuto Net did an excellent job.

Let's sum it up

KMS Auto is an indispensable program that can save us a tidy sum. After all, no one in our country wants to buy licensed Windows, be it Windows 7, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10. It’s much easier to download a small application that doesn’t even require installation and hack Microsoft’s security algorithm, which a team of the world’s best programmers have been working on for several decades, in two clicks. Nice, isn't it? Then let's get down to business!

How to download KMS Auto Net

This activator is a completely free program and neither an activation key nor a serial number is required for its operation. The program doesn't even need installation. Due to the huge demand, useful software is counterfeited with malicious code in an attempt to obtain secret information. Beware of unverified sites. Do not send SMS, download the program using a direct link from our resource.
