# $OEM$ Folders
|
|
|
|
To create a pre-activated Windows installation .iso, do the following:
|
|
- Extract the `$OEM$` folder to the desktop using the MAS script.
|
|
- Copy the `$OEM$` folder to the `sources` folder in the Windows installation media (.iso or USB).
|
|
- The directory will appear like this: `\sources\$OEM$` in your altered .iso or on your bootable USB drive.
|
|
- 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.
|
|
- You can check [here](intro.md) for activation method details and select the activation method as per your requirement.
|
|
|
|
:::warning
|
|
|
|
On Windows 8 and later, **running setupcomplete.cmd is disabled** if the default installed key for the edition is OEM Channel.
|
|
|
|
For example, preactivation won't work for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC because the default installed key is OEM. You can work around this issue by using Non-IoT Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC ISO, in which case the HWID method in preactivation will use IoT LTSC key to change the edition.

## Edit ISO File
|
|
|
|
- As stated above, you can copy the `$OEM$` 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.
|
|
- Download [AnyBurn Free Portable](https://www.anyburn.com/anyburn.zip) and extract this zip file
|
|
- Run the file named `AnyBurn(64-bit)\AnyBurn.exe`
|
|
- Select the option named `Edit image file`
|
|
- Follow the on-screen instructions and add the `$OEM$` folder to the `sources` folder so that the directory will appear like this: `\sources\$OEM$`
|
|
- Save the ISO, that's it.

## KMS38 - Server Cor/Acor
|
|
|
|
- Windows Server Cor/Acor (No GUI) editions don't have the `clipup.exe` file.
|
|
- To KMS38 activate it, you need to download the missing `ClipUp.exe` file from [this link](/files/ClipUp.zip).
|
|
`File: ClipUp.exe`
|
|
`SHA-256: 0d6e9f6bbd0321eda149658d96040cb4f79e0bd93ba60061f25b28fecbf4d4ef`
|
|
This file has digital signatures that can be verified. You can also get this file from the official [Windows Server 2016 x64 RTM ISO](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).
|
|
- Put the `ClipUp.exe` beside the KMS38 Activation script. That would be either `MAS_AIO.cmd` or `KMS38_Activation.cmd`
|
|
- The activation script will check `ClipUp.exe` in the current folder (from where script is running) and will use it accordingly.
