   [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 -
 | 
						|
-------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - Microsoft servers block the activation request from some countries such as Iran,
 | 
						|
   To activate the system in those countries, follow the below steps,
 | 
						|
   - In the settings app, Change Region and Timezone to the USA location and use a VPN, choose the
 | 
						|
     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.
