+ KMS38 Activation:
+====================================================================================================
+
+ - This activation method activates Windows 10/11 and Windows Server (14393 and later builds),
+ until the year 2038.
+ - This activation method does not store any files on the system.
+
+ - Make sure the following things have been accounted for, before applying KMS38 Activation:
+ - Before the activation, if any KMS activator is installed, then make sure to uninstall it
+ completely.
+ - After KMS38 activation for the Windows Operating System has been achieved, if you want to
+ additionally, use the 180 Days KMS Activator for MS Office, then you must make sure that
+ it (the 180 Days KMS Activator for MS Office) is compatible with Windows KMS38 activation.
+ FYI, the following activators are compatible and can activate Office
+ without disrupting the Windows KMS38 activation.

+
+ - Any KMS Activator which is not compatible with KMS38, may overwrite the KMS38 activation for
+ Windows with its own 180 days activation, thereby destroying the KMS38 activation for Windows.
+ To prevent this accidental overwriting, you can apply KMS38 protection for Windows, check
+ the Extras folder for more details.
+
+ - 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,
+
+reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f" /f

+
+ - Check Troubleshoot Script in the "Extras" section if you are facing issues with activation.
+
+ - Check Extract OEM option in the "Extras" section if you want pre-activated Windows installation.

+
+
+ Note - X86-X64 and ARM64 architecture systems are supported.
+ - Any Evaluation version of Windows and Server (i.e. 'EVAL' LTSB/C) cannot be activated.
+ - KMS38 only supports Windows/server version 14393 (1607) and newer versions.
+
+====================================================================================================
+ KMS38 Protection:
+====================================================================================================
+
+ - By default, a KMS38 Activation is vulnerable to unintended overwriting/replacement and
+ neutralization by a 180-Day KMS Activator (non-KMS38 Activator).
+
+ If you are going to use KMS_VL_ALL or MAS's KMS activation for Office,
+ then you don't need to enable this protection.
+
+ However, with a few tricks you can ensure that no alternative KMS Activator can replace KMS38
+ Activation by accident or even on purpose. This script demonstrate how to do/undo that.
+
+ - Protect KMS38:
+ - How does KMS38 Protection work?
+ In the KMS activation method, the Windows Operating System first checks the KMS IP registered
+ as a specific KMS, and if that is not defined then it checks the Global KMS IP.
+ Another fact is that if LocalHost (127.0.0.2) is defined as KMS IP in the Windows 8.1 and 10 OS's
+ then Windows will not accept it as a valid KMS IP.
+ This script simply utilizes the above facts to protect the KMS38 activation from being
+ overwritten by any alternative 'normal' 180-Day KMS Activation.
+
+ Script steps-
+ - Set that Windows edition specific KMS IP to LocalHost (127.0.0.2),
+HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f\XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
+where X is Windows edition Activation ID.
+
+ - Lock this Registry with Reg_takeownership snippet by @AveYo aka @BAU
+ pastebin.com/XTPt0JSC
+ - Done.
+
+====================================================================================================
+ Switches for the Script (Separate Files Version):
+====================================================================================================
+
+ - To run the script in unattended mode, use /u parameter.
+"KMS38_Activation.cmd" /a
+
+ - To activate along with KMS38 protection (from being replaced by 180 days KMS activation),
+ run the script with /ap parameter
+"KMS38_Activation.cmd" /ap
+
+ - To only generate GenuineTicket.xml, run the script with /g parameter
+"KMS38_Activation.cmd" /g
+
+ - To uninstall the KMS38, run the script with /x parameter
+"KMS38_Activation.cmd" /x

+
+====================================================================================================
+ Manual Activation Process:
+====================================================================================================
+
+ - Prerequisite:
+
+ For Windows 10 / Server x86-x64 system, you need following files (Get it from MAS separate files version)
+
+ ClipUp.exe
+ gatherosstate.exe
+ slc.dll
+
+ * ClipUp.exe is only required to activate Server Cor and Acor editions.
+
+ For Windows 10 ARM64 system, you need following files,
+ arm64_gatherosstate.exe
+ arm64_slc.dll
+ * Rename the ARM64 files to gatherosstate.exe and slc.dll respectively.
+
+ Make a folder named 'Files' in C drive, [C:\Files] and copy the required files in that folder.
+
+ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ - Make sure to properly and completely remove any previously-installed KMS activator if one already exists.
+ - Open CMD as Admin, and enter the following listed commands in the sequence in which they are given.
+ - Enter Generic Volume License Key (GVLK) (Replace '%key%' with the key from the above list)
+ with the following command:
+
+cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk %key%
+
+ - Set specific KMS host to 127.0.0.2 [Localhost] with the following command: (Run one by one)
+ - By doing this, the global KMS IP can not replace the KMS38 activation, and can then safely be used with MS Office
+ and other Windows Editions.
+ - It's optional.
+
+for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %G in ('"wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where (Description like '%%KMSCLIENT%%' and Name like 'Windows%%' and PartialProductKey is not NULL) get ID /VALUE"') do (set app=%G)
+wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where ID='%app%' call ClearKeyManagementServiceMachine
+wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where ID='%app%' call ClearKeyManagementServicePort
+wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where ID='%app%' call SetKeyManagementServiceMachine MachineName="127.0.0.2"
+wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where ID='%app%' call SetKeyManagementServicePort 1688
+
+ - Make sure slc.dll and gatherosstate.exe files are located in the folder, "C:\Files" and enter
+ following command to generate GenuineTicket.xml file.
+
+call "C:\Files\gatherosstate.exe"
+
+ - Now a GenuineTicket.xml file should be created in the folder "C:\Files\", copy and paste this file in the
+ folder named, "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\ClipSVC\GenuineTicket\"
+
+ - Now apply this ticket using the following commands in this sequence:
+ (In case of server cor and acor editions, copy the clipup.exe file to the folder "C:\Windows\System32\")
+
+net stop ClipSVC
+net start ClipSVC
+
+ - Check the expiry date of the activation with the following command:
+
+cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /xpr
+
+ - If the expiry date is not in the year 2038, then enter the following command:
+
+cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /rearm-app 55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f
+for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %G in ('"wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where (Description like '%%KMSCLIENT%%' and Name like 'Windows%%' and PartialProductKey is not NULL) get ID /VALUE"') do (set app=%G)
+cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /rearm-sku %app%
+
+ - check expiry date again, now it should show activation until the year 2038.
+
+ - Done.
+
+ * Note - [clipup -v -o -altto ] method to apply the ticket was not suggested because
+ of the issues in case the username have spaces or non English characters.
