# \$OEM\$ Folders
(Windows Pre-Activation)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Overview
- To create a pre-activated Windows installation .iso, do the following things:
- Extract `$OEM$` 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 and 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](index.html) about activation method details and select the activation method as per your requirement.
- 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 because installed key is of OEM channel.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## KMS38 - Server Cor/Acor
- Windows Server Cor/Acor (No GUI) editions don't have `clipup.exe` file.
- To KMS38 activate it, you need to download `ClipUp.exe` file from the below official MS link.\
<https://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols/clipup.exe/5789984414b000/clipup.exe>
- Rename the downloaded file as `ClipUp.exe` and put it beside the KMS38 Activation script. That would be either `MAS_AIO.cmd` or `KMS38_Activation.cmd`
- Activation script will check `ClipUp.exe` in the current folder (from where script is running) and will use it accordingly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## HWID
- When using HWID activation, no files are stored on the system, and Windows 10-11 will be activated when connected to the internet for the first time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## KMS38
- When using KMS38 activation, no files are stored on the system, and Windows 10-11-Server becomes activated immediately without Internet.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Online KMS
- When using Online KMS activation, Windows and Office both will be activated when connected to the internet for the first time. This option uses a renewal task for lifetime activation.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## HWID + Online KMS
- In this method, Windows 10-11 will be activated with HWID, and **Office** will be activated using Online KMS.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## KMS38 + Online KMS
- In this method, Windows 10-11-Server will be activated with KMS38, and **Office** will be activated using Online KMS.
