<li>To be clear, we are <strong>not modifying/patching any on-board

of ISO file and not available in C drive system files. System’s slc.dll
file is not touched, instead we use custom slc.dll only for a brief
moment of ticket generation.</li>

methods then check this repo <a

<h2>Types of Tickets</h2>
1.8
2023-03-16 19:09:16 +01:00
<p>There are many methods for ticket generation, majorly we can classify
1.7
2022-11-07 21:30:36 +01:00
the ticket types in 3 categories.</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li><p><strong>Downlevel Ticket</strong> - This is the simplest ticket
generation process. In this method, ticket is signed by downlevel key by
1.8
2023-03-16 19:09:16 +01:00
the system and the ticket’s OSVersion is =&lt;10. If it’s generated on
1.7
2022-11-07 21:30:36 +01:00
Windows 10/11 then MS ideally aren’t supposed to grant activation,
however they do and method is continuously working from last 4-5 years.
Almost every HWID activator (at the time of writing this) is based on
this method.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Lockbox Ticket</strong> - This is slightly a trickier
method. The ticket is signed by Lockbox key by the system and the
ticket’s OSVersion is 10. This ticket generation process involves
cleaning Clipsvc licenses and IdentityCRL registry key in the system.
Due to some hiccups in the process, this method is not primarily used in
MAS, however these are the types of tickets that are identical to the
genuine ticket generated by system on activated Windows 10/11.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Universal Ticket</strong> - In this method, we set the
OSVersion =&lt;5 in the ticket and when we apply the ticket, system
ignores the HWID in the ticket due to lower OSVersion and grant the
activation anyway. This ticket can be applied on any system. These
tickets can either be Downlevel or Lockbox type. MS ideally aren’t
supposed to grant activation, however they do.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Latest version of MAS is using Universal ticket method. Other ticket
method scripts can be found in this repo <a
href="https://github.com/massgravel/MAS-Legacy-Methods">MAS-Legacy-Methods</a></p>
<p>Now a question, can Microsoft block the new requests or revoke
already established HWID license?</p>

<ul>
1.8
2023-03-16 19:09:16 +01:00
<li>Revoking the license would be too extreme and will face many
1.7
2022-11-07 21:30:36 +01:00
complications and risk of voiding valid licenses. However maybe they can
block the new activation requests coming from Downlevel and Universal
tickets. But the tools are working from 4-5 years and they don’t seem to
care much for consumer piracy; That’s not where they get the most money
from.</li>

<li>You can not remove it, same as you can not remove official Windows
digital (HWID) license. Once a system is activated, this activation
cannot be removed because the license is stored in the Microsoft servers
and not in the user’s system. MS checks the hardware ID (HWID) and if a
license is found in their database, the system will automatically
