<p>(Windows Pre-Activation)</p>
<ul>
<li>To create a pre-activated Windows installation .iso, do the following:</li>
<li>Extract the <code>$OEM$</code> folder to the desktop using the MAS script.</li>
<li>Copy the <code>$OEM$</code> folder to the <code>sources</code> folder in the Windows installation media (.iso or USB).</li>
<li>The directory will appear like this: <code>\sources\$OEM$</code> in your altered .iso or on your bootable USB drive.</li>
<li>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.</li>
<li>You can check <ahref="/">here</a> for activation method details and select the activation method as per your requirement.</li>

<ul>
<li>As stated above, you can copy the <code>$OEM$</code> 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.</li>
<li>Download <ahref="https://www.anyburn.com/anyburn.zip"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">AnyBurn Free Portable</a> and extract this zip file</li>
<li>Run the file named <code>AnyBurn(64-bit)\AnyBurn.exe</code></li>
<li>Select the option named <code>Edit image file</code></li>
<li>Follow the on-screen instructions and add the <code>$OEM$</code> folder to the <code>sources</code> folder so that the directory will appear like this: <code>\sources\$OEM$</code></li>
<li>Save the ISO, that's it.</li>

<ul>
<li>On Windows 8 and later, <strong>running setupcomplete.cmd is disabled</strong> if the default installed key for the edition is OEM Channel.<br>
<!---->For example - Preactivation won't work for Windows 10 Iot Enterprise LTSC because installed key is of the OEM channel.</li>
<li>The <strong>solution</strong> 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.</li>

<ul>
<li>Windows Server Cor/Acor (No GUI) editions don't have the <code>clipup.exe</code> file.</li>
<li>To KMS38 activate it, you need to download the missing <code>ClipUp.exe</code> file from <ahref="/assets/files/ClipUp-35a116e9ec8a086319a5a83e176f6156.zip"target="_blank">this link</a>.<br>
<!---->This file has digital signatures that can be verified. You can also get this file from the official <ahref="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"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">Windows Server 2016 x64 RTM ISO</a>.</li>
<li>Put the <code>ClipUp.exe</code> beside the KMS38 Activation script. That would be either <code>MAS_AIO.cmd</code> or <code>KMS38_Activation.cmd</code></li>
<li>The activation script will check <code>ClipUp.exe</code> in the current folder (from where script is running) and will use it accordingly.</li>
