Online KMS Activation

+
+
+

Overview

+
    +
  • How to use it? Please find the instructions here.

  • +
  • This Online KMS Activation script is a fork of abbodi1406’s KMS_VL_ALL

  • +
  • This fork’s purpose is to avoid having any KMS binary files and +activate Windows / Office using only transparent batch script with +online public KMS servers IP (Not hostname).

  • +
  • This script requires Internet for activation.

  • +
  • KMS activates Windows / Office for 180 Days. For Windows Core / +ProWMC editions it is 30 / 45 Days.

  • +
  • This script can activate both Retail and Volume Windows +installation.

  • +
  • This script can activate C2R Retail and VL Office, but not 2010 / +2013 MSI Retail Office and UWP Office.

  • +
  • This script skips the activation of any permanently / +Subscription / KMS38 activated product.

  • +
  • As mentioned, KMS activates only for a limited period and it’s +not permanent, read below on how to achieve lifetime +activation.

  • +
+
+
+
+

Activation Renewal

+
    +
  • By design in the genuine KMS +activation method, the system contacts the registered server every 7 +days, and if contacted successfully it will automatically renew and +reset the activation for the the full period of 180 days again, starting +from the day of successful contact. If the system cannot contact the +server, it will be deactivated after 180 days and it will remain +deactivated until contact can be restored.

  • +
  • To get the lifetime activation, you need to do either one of the +below two things,

  • +
+
    +
  1. Manual Activation
    +Run the online KMS activation whenever required.

  2. +
  3. Activation Auto-Renewal
    +You can install the auto-renewal in the script.
    +This method puts the following two files,
    +
    +C:\ProgramData\Activation-Renewal\Activation_task.cmd

    +

    C:\ProgramData\Activation-Renewal\Info.txt

    +

    And creates a scheduled task (\Activation-Renewal) to +run the script every 7 days. This task registers the working KMS server +and triggers activation commands only for the installed Volume +products.
    +The scheduled task runs only if the system is connected to the +Internet.

+
+
+

Remarks

+
    +
  • With KMS Activation, you can update Windows/Office without any +issues.

  • +
  • What is left in the system in the activation process?

    +
      +
    • If Renewal Task is installed: After activation, +it leaves the KMS Server IP in the registry, which helps you to get the +global activation feature whereby the system auto-renews the activation. +About files and scheduled task, it has been mentioned above.

    • +
    • If Renewal Task is NOT installed: It leaves a +non-existent IP 10.0.0.10 to avoid Office Not Genuine Banner +issue.

    • +
  • +
  • This script includes the most-stable KMS servers (16) list from +all over the world. The server selection process is fully automatic. +Script randomly select a server, tests if it’s online, if yes then apply +the activation command, if fails, then retry this process maximum of +total 3 times for a product. Such redundancy makes sure that we get the +working KMS server any time.

  • +
  • If your system date is incorrect (beyond 180 days) and you are +offline, the system will be deactivated, but will automatically +reactivate when you correct the system date.

  • +
  • The advantage of Online KMS activation is that it doesn’t need +any KMS binary file and system can be activated using some manual +commands or transparent batch script files. So this is for those who +don’t like/have difficulties/trust issues in offline KMS because of its +binary files and antivirus detection’s.

    +

    But if you prefer offline KMS then checkout an open-source activator, +abbodi1406’s KMS_VL_ALL

How does it work?

+
    +
  • What is KMS activation?
    +Key Management Service (KMS) is a genuine activation method provided by +Microsoft for volume licensing customers (organizations, schools or +governments). The machines in those environments (called KMS clients) +are activated via the Environment KMS Host Server (authorized +Microsoft’s licensing key), instead of Microsoft activation servers. By +design, the KMS activation period lasts up to 180 Days (6 Months) at +max, with the ability to renew and reinstate the period at any time. +Activation renewal automatically happens every 7 days if the client can +connect to the KMS host server. For more info, see here +and here.

  • +
  • How are we getting it for free?
    +Developers reverse-engineered the KMS Host Server setup, so now anyone +can host a KMS server and activate the systems without any limitations. +KMS activators such as KMSpico, MTK, KMS_VL_ALL, etc., locally create an +emulated KMS Host Server and activate Windows and Office.

    +

    This locally-emulated KMS server requires you to run binary files +which often cause anti-virus alerts (false positives).

    +

    Another method of KMS activation is publicly-available Online KMS +Host Server. In this method, the site hosts the emulated KMS server and +anyone can simply use this server to activate their systems, there is no +requirement for running any software on your system.

  • +
  • Is Online KMS activation safe?
    +Yes.
    +Let’s go into the details. In the KMS protocol, there is a relationship +of host and client. The client system asks the host system to grant the +activation, and the host system grants the activation if it’s eligible. +In this process, the client system shares some of the system’s data, +which is not sensitive in nature. According to the Microsoft +document, the client system shares the following data with the host +system: Client FQDN, CMID, time-stamp, Product license state, expiration +time and IP address

    +

    In this shared info, the important part is your IP address. Below are +some things regarding it which you should know.

    +
      +
    • Sharing your IP while going online is not a security concern. You +can not go online to visit any website without having to share your IP +address.

    • +
    • IP addresses do not necessarily represent a specific person. +Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) mostly use dynamic IP, which means +the same IP address can be used by many different persons, and a dynamic +IP address is periodically reassigned to different people all the time. +But a static IP address is permanently assigned to a unique subscriber. +The Internet Service Provider (ISP) won’t reveal that information unless +there is a legal reason to do so.

    • +
    • Microsoft has never tried to go after Home users in legal cases +for using a few pirated activations (not talking about stolen legal +keys) simply because the cost of legal actions would be much higher than +the amount of money gained by forcing a few people to purchase +activations.

    • +
    • No law enforcement is going to take action based on the IP’s from +all over the world without the consent from the Microsoft +itself.

    • +

Office ‘Non-genuine’ Banner

+
    +
  • Office Click-to-Run builds (since February 2021) that are +activated with KMS checks the existence of the KMS server name in the +registry.

  • +
  • If KMS server is not present, a banner is shown in Office +programs notifying that “Office isn’t licensed properly”, see here.

  • +
  • Therefore in manual mode, KeyManagementServiceName +value containing a non-existent IP address 10.0.0.10 will be kept in the +below registry keys:

  • +
+ +
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
+
+HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
+

This is perfectly fine to keep, and it does not affect Windows or +Office activation. For more explanation, visit here

+
+
+
+

Office Retail to Volume

+

Office Retail must be converted to Volume first before it can be +activated with KMS.
+By default, this activation script will convert Office C2R Retail to +Volume.

+

Notes:

+
    +
  • Supported Click-to-Run products: Office 365 (Microsoft 365 Apps), +Office 2021 / 2019 / 2016, Office 2013

  • +
  • Activated Office Retail or Subscription products will be skipped +from conversion

  • +
  • Office 365 itself does not have volume licenses, therefore it +will be converted to Office Mondo licenses

  • +
  • Windows 10/11: Office 2016 products will be converted with +corresponding Office 2019 licenses (if RTM detected)

  • +
  • Windows 8.1: Office 2016/2019 products will be converted with +corresponding Office 2021 licenses (if RTM detected)

  • +
  • Office Professional suite will be converted with Office +Professional Plus licenses

  • +
  • Office HomeBusiness/HomeStudent suites will be converted with +Office Standard licenses

  • +
  • Office 2013 products follow the same logic, but handled +separately

  • +
+

Alternatively, if the automatic conversion did not work, or if you +prefer to use the standalone converter script: Office-C2R-Retail2Volume

Debug Mode

+
    +
  • With debug mode, we can get a log file with more details of +activation script process and it can be used to troubleshoot the +activation issues.

  • +
  • In Online KMS option, you can enable Debug Mode by +pressing 6. When the activation is run with Debug Mode enabled, it +creates a log file which contains details of activation process, this is +useful to detect activation errors. You can send that log to us to +check. Check troubleshoot heading.
