| <h2>Overview</h2>
 | ||
| <ul>
 | ||
| <li><p>How to use it? Please find the instructions <a
 | ||
| href="https://massgrave.dev">here</a>.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>This activation is supported for Windows 10/11 only.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>This activation does not store any files in your system.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>This activation is a permanent activation for your system
 | ||
| Hardware.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>On a system, this activation can be created for all the supported
 | ||
| editions, and all can be linked to Microsoft account without any
 | ||
| issues.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>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 license is found
 | ||
| in their database, system will automatically activate.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>Any significant changes in the Hardware (such as a motherboard)
 | ||
| may deactivate the system. It is possible to reactivate a system that
 | ||
| was deactivated because of significant hardware changes, IF your
 | ||
| activation, was linked to an online Microsoft account.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>For activation to succeed, the internet connectivity must be
 | ||
| enabled. If you are trying to activate without these conditions being
 | ||
| met, then the system will auto-activate later when the conditions are
 | ||
| met.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>Auto activation scenario after the Windows re-install:</p>
 | ||
| <ul>
 | ||
| <li><p>The Internet is required. (Only at the time of
 | ||
| activation)</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>The system will auto-activate if Retail (Consumer) media was used
 | ||
| for the installation.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>The system will NOT auto-activate if VL (Business) media was used
 | ||
| for the installation. In this case, the user will have to insert that
 | ||
| windows edition Retail/OEM key (find keys below in this page) to
 | ||
| activate, if the user doesn’t wish to activate again using this
 | ||
| script.</p></li>
 | ||
| </ul></li>

| <div id="how-does-it-work" class="section level2">
 | ||
| <h2>How does it work?</h2>
 | ||
| <ul>
 | ||
| <li><p>In the official upgrade process from Windows 7 to Windows 10,
 | ||
| Microsoft provides a HWID (digital license) activation for Windows 10
 | ||
| without any cost.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>In background, the upgrade process runs a file names
 | ||
| <code>gatherosstate.exe</code> and it checks the license of current
 | ||
| Windows and if found activated, it generates a valid GenuineTicket.xml
 | ||
| which is sent to Microsoft and in return, MS authorize a
 | ||
| license.</p></li>
 | ||
| <li><p>So if we just convince the <code>gatherosstate.exe</code> file
 | ||
| that system is activated by fooling it, it will generate a valid ticket,
 | ||
| which can be used to get the valid HWID (Digital license). The script
 | ||
| here does exactly that to get the activation for free without any
 | ||
| upgrade process.</p></li>
 | ||
| </ul>
 | ||
| <p>Now question, can Microsoft differentiate counterfeit tickets and
 | ||
| block the license?</p>
 | ||
| <ul>
 | ||
| <li>Umm.. Yes, but actually no. The signature type can (sort of) be used
 | ||
| to determine what utility is responsible for the ticket. There is no way
 | ||
| (in a standard environment) for a non-activated Windows 10 installation
 | ||
| to generate a ticket. In the normal process, gatherosstate will ask SLC
 | ||
| for the entire ticket, but when this fails it will generate and sign it
 | ||
| by itself, creating a “downlevelGTkey” signature. For every activated
 | ||
| system, a generated ticket will be returned by SLC and thus will have a
 | ||
| “clientLockboxKey” signature. Put simply, the signature (should) always
 | ||
| be a “clientLockboxKey” one in case of an activated system, but in this
 | ||
| case it isn’t. Microsoft will not take action against it, because of the
 | ||
| risk of voiding valid licenses. Besides, they never really cared for
 | ||
| consumer piracy; That’s not where they get the most money from.</li>
