[HWID] Digital License Activation: |
|
==================================================================================================== |
|
|
|
- This activation is supported for Windows 10 ONLY. |
|
- This activation does not store any files in your system. |
|
- This activation is a permanent activation for your system Hardware. |
|
|
|
- On a system, this activation can be created for all the supported editions, and all can be |
|
linked to Microsoft account without any issues. |
|
|
|
- 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.) |
|
|
|
- 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. |
|
|
|
- For activation to succeed, the Windows Update Service and 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. |
|
|
|
- Auto activation scenario after the Windows reinstall: |
|
- The Internet is required. (Only at the time of activation) |
|
- The system will auto-activate if Retail (Consumer) media was used for the installation. |
|
- 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. |
|
|
|
- Possible reasons for activation failure: |
|
- The Internet is not connected. |
|
- Windows update service is disabled. |
|
- Use of a VPN, and/or a privacy-based hosts file, firewall rules. |
|
- Corrupt system files. |
|
- Microsoft servers block the activation request from some countries such as Iran. |
|
- Rarely, Microsoft's activation servers are the problem. |
|
- Some machines are not able to generate GenuineTicket.xml file using gatherosstate.exe |
|
The reason is unknown (to me). Please contact me if it happens to you. |
|
|
|
* Troubleshoot guide is listed below. |

|
|
|
- Make sure the Windows Update Service and internet are both enabled. |
|
- Open a command prompt (run cmd.exe) as administrator, and enter following listed commands in the |
|
the sequence in which they are given. |
|
- Enter Retail/OEM Key, (Replace '%key%' with the key from the above list) with the following command: |
|
|
|
cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk %key% |
|
|
|
- Make sure slc.dll and gatherosstate.exe files are located in the folder, "C:\Files" and enter |
|
the following commands to generate GenuineTicket.xml file. |
|
|
|
For x86-x64 systems, |
|
|
|
pushd "C:\Files" |
|
rundll32 "C:\Files\slc.dll",PatchGatherosstate |
|
call "C:\Files\gatherosstatemodified.exe" |
|
|
|
For ARM64 systems, |
|
|
|
call "C:\Files\gatherosstate.exe" |
|
|
|
- Now a GenuineTicket.xml file should be created in the folder "C:\Files\", copy and paste this file in the |
|
folder named, "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\ClipSVC\GenuineTicket\" |
|
|
|
- Now apply this ticket using the following commands in this sequence: |
|
|
|
net stop ClipSVC |
|
net start ClipSVC |
|
|
|
- Activate Windows with the following command: |
|
|
|
cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato |
|
|
|
- Check Activation Status with the following command: |
|
|
|
cscript /nologo %windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs /xpr |
|
|
|
- Done. |
|
|
|
* Note - [clipup -v -o -altto <ticket_path>] method to apply the ticket was not suggested because |
|
of the issues in case the username have spaces or non English characters. |
|
|
|
==================================================================================================== |
|
Troubleshoot activation issues: |
|
==================================================================================================== |
|
|
|
- Make sure the internet is connected. |
|
|
|
- Open CMD and type services.msc and hit Enter, When Services opens up, look for 'Windows Update' |
|
and Make sure its startup type is set to Automatic. Some update blocking tools and scripts |
|
usually permanently block the update service, you need to make sure it's not the case. |
|
|
|
- VPN, privacy-based hosts and/or firewall rules may cause problems with the activation. Disable |
|
them if you are facing problems in activation. |
|
|
|
- Reboot the system. |
|
|
|
- Now run the script to activate Windows 10, and if unsuccessful, |
|
Try the troubleshoot button in the settings activation page. |
|
If still unsuccessful then read additional troubleshoot options listed below. |
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
- Open CMD as administrator, and enter the following command: |
|
|
|
Dism /online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth |
|
|
|
- After it's done, reboot the system and open CMD as administrator again, and enter the |
|
following command: |
|
|
|
sfc.exe /scannow |
|
|
|
- After it's done, reboot the system and run the activation script, and if unsuccessful, |
|
open CMD as administrator again, and enter the following command: |
|
|
|
slmgr.vbs /rearm |
|
|
|
- Reboot the system and run the activation script, and if unsuccessful, |
|
You may try to rebuild licensing Tokens.dat as suggested in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2736303 |
|
(this will require to repair Office afterwards.) |
|
|
|
- Reboot the system and run the activation script, and if unsuccessful, |
|
try cleaning the clipup using the following commands, it will reset all the HWID/KMS38 installed |
|
licences in the current system installation. open CMD as administrator again, and enter the |
|
following commands one by one: |
|
|
|
net stop ClipSVC |
|
rundll32 clipc.dll,ClipCleanUpState |
|
|
|
- Reboot the system (important) and run the activation script, and if unsuccessful, |
|
Make sure hardware component proper drivers are installed, check manufacturer site/Windows- |
|
update for drivers. |
|
|
|
- After it's done, reboot the system and run the activation script, and if unsuccessful, |
|
it may be time to start over from the very beginning and do a clean install of windows :D |
|
|
|
------------------------------------------- |
|
Activation is blocked in some countries - |
|
------------------------------------------- |
|
|

|
the location of the USA. Now run the script, it should activate now. |
|
|
|

|
|
|
- Some machines are not able to generate GenuineTicket.xml file using gatherosstate.exe |
|
The reason is unknown (to me). Please contact me if it happens to you. |
