<h2>Overview</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>How to use it? Please find the instructions <a
2023-01-11 12:19:43 +01:00
href="index.html#Download__How_to_use_it">here</a>.</p></li>
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
<li><p>This activation method activates Windows 10/11 and Windows Server
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
(14393 and later builds), until 19 January 2038 03:14:07 UTC.</p></li>

<li><p>This activation method does not store any files on the

<div id="how-does-it-work" class="section level2">
<h2>How does it work?</h2>
<ul>
<li><p>In a genuine <a
href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/tn-archive/ee939272(v=technet.10)?redirectedfrom=MSDN#kms-overview">KMS</a>
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
activation environment, activation lasts a maximum of up to 180 days.
This is done using a valid license and server setup.</p></li>
2023-03-16 19:09:16 +01:00
<li><p>In the Windows major upgrade process, the system uses
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
<code>gatherosstate.exe</code> to carry over the remaining KMS
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
activation period. It does it by creating a ticket that can be used
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
offline.</p></li>
<li><p>The trick is that we can fool the <code>gatherosstate.exe</code>
about the remaining KMS activation period and manually put the desired
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
period maximum up to 19 January 2038 03:14:07 UTC.</p></li>
<li><p>Why its limited to the year 2038?<br />
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
Its related to the <a
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem">Y2K38 problem</a>
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
as this date (19 January 2038 03:14:07 UTC) is the maximum date we can
give to <code>gatherosstate.exe</code> without it looping back to the
year 1970.</p></li>
2023-03-16 19:09:16 +01:00
<li><p>How to convince the gatherosstate.exe?<br />
There are two methods for it.<br />
<br />
<strong>1-</strong> Place a <a
href="https://github.com/Gamers-Against-Weed/Integrated_Patcher_3">custom
slc.dll</a> file beside gatherosstate.exe:<br />
gatherosstate.exe uses the systems
<code>C:\Windows\System32\slc.dll</code> file to gather the systems
info. If we place a custom slc.dll file beside gatherosstate.exe which
can send the rubbish data to it, then it will simply accept it and
generate a valid ticket allowing activation upto 19 January 2038
03:14:07 UTC.<br />
<br />
<strong>2-</strong> <a
href="https://github.com/Gamers-Against-Weed/GamersOsState">Modify</a>
the gatherosstate.exe file itself so that it doesnt check the systems
activation status and we can put the activation period as we
wish.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Note:</strong> Latest MAS doesnt use any of these
methods, instead it uses ready to use Universal ticket (check below for
manual activation).</p></li>
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
</ul>
<p><strong>Q:</strong> Can Microsoft block this kind of
activation?<br />
<strong>A:</strong> Not directly. They could only update Clipup to allow
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
for a maximum activation period of 180 days. Not much besides that can
be done on their part. The tickets are not sent to Microsoft at all, so
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
they cant block them or take action directly.</p>

remove this protection.</p></li>
<li><p>Below is the explanation for how the script protect
KMS38.</p></li>
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
<li><p>In the KMS activation method, Windows first checks the KMS IP
2022-07-25 20:03:20 +02:00
registered as a specific KMS, and if that is not defined then it checks
the Global KMS IP. Another fact is that if Localhost (IP range
2022-08-10 19:01:29 +02:00
127.0.0.0/8) is defined as KMS IP in Windows 8 and later OS 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 and at the same time
that KMS activator can be used for Office activation.</p></li>
