+
+(Windows Pre-Activation)
+
+- To create a pre-activated Windows installation .iso, do the following:
+- Extract the `$OEM$` folder to the desktop using the MAS script.
+- Copy the `$OEM$` folder to the `sources` folder in the Windows installation media (.iso or USB).
+- The directory will appear like this: `\sources\$OEM$` in your altered .iso or on your bootable USB drive.
+- Now use this .iso or bootable USB drive to install Windows, it will either already be activated (KMS38) as soon as it boots or will self-activate (HWID or Online KMS) at the first internet contact.
+- You can check [here](intro.md) for activation method details and select the activation method as per your requirement.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## Edit ISO File
+
+- As stated above, you can copy the `$OEM$` folder to your bootable USB so you don't have to edit the ISO file. However, if you need to, then follow the steps below.
+- Download [AnyBurn Free Portable](https://www.anyburn.com/anyburn.zip) and extract this zip file
+- Run the file named `AnyBurn(64-bit)\AnyBurn.exe`
+- Select the option named `Edit image file`
+- Follow the on-screen instructions and add the `$OEM$` folder to the `sources` folder so that the directory will appear like this: `\sources\$OEM$`
+- Save the ISO, that's it.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## Limitations
+
+- On Windows 8 and later, **running setupcomplete.cmd is disabled** if the default installed key for the edition is OEM Channel.
+ For example - Preactivation won't work for Windows 10 Iot Enterprise LTSC because installed key is of the OEM channel.
+- The **solution** for this issue is to use (Non-Iot) Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC ISO, and the HWID method in preactivation will use Iot LTSC key to change the edition.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## KMS38 - Server Cor/Acor
+
+- Windows Server Cor/Acor (No GUI) editions don't have the `clipup.exe` file.
+- To KMS38 activate it, you need to download the missing `ClipUp.exe` file from [this link](/files/ClipUp.zip).
+ `File: ClipUp.exe`
+ `SHA-256: 0d6e9f6bbd0321eda149658d96040cb4f79e0bd93ba60061f25b28fecbf4d4ef`
+ This file has digital signatures that can be verified. You can also get this file from the official [Windows Server 2016 x64 RTM ISO](https://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/F/16FA20E6-4662-482A-920B-1A45CF5AAE3C/14393.0.160715-1616.RS1_RELEASE_SERVER_EVAL_X64FRE_EN-US.ISO).
+- Put the `ClipUp.exe` beside the KMS38 Activation script. That would be either `MAS_AIO.cmd` or `KMS38_Activation.cmd`
+- The activation script will check `ClipUp.exe` in the current folder (from where script is running) and will use it accordingly.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## HWID
+
+- When using HWID activation, no files are stored on the system, and Windows 10-11 will be activated when connected to the internet for the first time.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## Ohook
+
+- If Office is preinstalled then Ohook method will activate the Office immediately without Internet. This activation uses custom sppc.dll file for the activation.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## KMS38
+
+- When using KMS38 activation, no files are stored on the system, and Windows 10-11-Server becomes activated immediately without Internet.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## Online KMS
+
+- When using Online KMS activation, Windows-Server and Office (Preinstalled) both will be activated when connected to the internet for the first time. This option uses a renewal task for lifetime activation.
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+## HWID + Ohook

+
