Windows Activation
(lemmy.world)
This is the way
This is the correct answer!
Thanks! I'll check it out tonight
Definitely this is the way
Sorry for the double reply but do you know if this works for every version of Windows 10 or just specific ones?
should work on every version. Afaik the activation sequence is the same for all windows 10 versions so i can't see why it wouldn't work on some versions
Worked on 11, safe to assume works on all 10's
I've used it on probably 10+ windows systems that I've had to refresh/set up for various needs and people. I've never had it fail on any flavor of 10/11.
It's pretty ironic that this is hosted on a Microsoft owned service. I hope they have a mirror available somewhere
MAS all the way
I don't have any recommendation beyond what has already been said but if none of the solutions work or seem too much to handle and you don't absolutely need windows for whatever reason (mostly work, if gaming is what you're worrying about Linux works fine usually now that steam is pushing for more conpatibility) I'd rather recommend you try out Linux Mint (or Nobara if you want all the gaming stuff to be setup for you already) instead of buying windows as it will save you money and time.
Seriously, not having to deal with activation crap and not having to unplug ethernet just to install a damn OS without having to login to an account is really nice.
Fr, even I've thought about switching to Linux for a while haha
Went through this recently. Had to get a new drive and install fresh and going through the setup process in windows 10 just broke my spirit. I downloaded Garuda Linux and havent even finished setting up windows.
This works if you signed in with your Microsoft account, are scrapping the old PC (or at least not using the copy of Windows), and are installing the same version of Windows on the new hardware.
During installation select the option for I have no activation key. Once Windows is installed, open settings and select the activate Windows option. Go through the activation troubleshooter and there's an option to transfer the key from an old installation. Select the correct one based on whatever you called the old installation, and you should be set.
There's lots of good advice in this thread, but there's no point in pirating a copy of Windows when you already own one.
Create a file on desktop called 1click.bat and paste this:

Then just run it as administrator. Don't forget to add desktop to exceptions in your antivirus/firewall or windows might auto delete it.
I don't know why I'm getting downvotes since this is working perfectly. Found that on reddit where many people confirmed its working and never had problems with it. Maybe solution from other post is better, take care
Running scripts from a random comment is risky if you don't know how to check if the script is safe (and someone asking how to activate windows definitely doesn't). Better to just link the massgravel Microsoft Activation Scripts (MAS), as the top comment did.
Thx for explaining. If I found that link back in a day, I would probably use it as well :D
Since your post contains windows activation keys in the batch file script I'm going to remove it. Rule 3. Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles. If you want to link to a web page that contains that activation script and base 64 encode the URL then that would be fine.
But using the MAS method, as others have mentioned, would be my recommendation and only requires a quick web search for "massgravel github" to find.

It is maybe time to try something else like Linux for exemple.
I’m an avid Void user, so I get the value of linux. But I cringe every time I see a comment like this. The OP has asked a specific question about a specific version of a specific OS. Someone asking about an OS should not be considered an invitation to tell them about another.
It's like going on a car sub where someone's asking how to repair the brakes on a Ford Focus, and someone replying "Well I have a Hyundai i20 and it doesn't have that problem"
Fuckin irritating kids
More like going on a car sub where someone is asking for a specific car for free, and someone replying "well I have a different car you can have for free"
Thank you for saying this! The Linux virtue signaling is so strong around here that it really is off putting. Like, we get it. You're a super duper computer person that's super duper smart and has made the smartest of smart choices in your OS.
I've been a programmer for 13 years now and can do anything from the command line yet I still think GNU/Linux is garbage as a desktop OS... it has nothing to do with being good with computers. The only good argument for Linux is a FOSS only mentality
I already have a laptop with linux on it that I use to try out some stuff I see on this community. But I use the Windows PC mainly for Everyday stuff and Gaming. So I'd rather keep the current OS but thanks for the suggestion anyways.

Any random win7/win10/win11 key works.
Personally I scratch of the old win7 keys of old customers that gave them to us for recycling amd use them for myself :)

Which Windows? Windows 10 and above have the key attached to your Microsoft account, so you shouldn't have any issues. I'm pretty sure they're free now anyways (in exchange for being spyware).

Use this. I've used myself loads of times. Even better if you can get your hands on an IoT LTSC version of Windows 10 and then activate it using this script
Use what? You didn't include anything.
Stupid! I've added it
