Does it matter which Windows people upgrade from?

I heard if you upgrade from Windows 7 Pro you can only get Windows 10 Pro, or some shit like that? I thought Windows 10 was universal?
>>
>>54716542
My best advice is to just buy the Windows 10 Pro USB/DVD. It's impossible to activate it fully from a pirate copy.

However, if you upgrade a Windows 8 or 8.1 Pro copy to Windows 10, it will make the copy validated and authentic.
>>
>>54716904
>I thought Windows 10 was universal?
It isn't.

If you upgrade from a home version, you'll get Windows 10 Home Edition.

>>54716899
Are you sure it's related with KMS and MSToolkit?

>>54716854
Yes, that's generally the easiest way, but keep in mind activation only lasts 180 days, but autoKMS will attempt to reactivated it every couple of days or so.
>>
>>54716922
Is W7 better or W8 better as a upgrade from W10?

Does it even matter?

Also does the os type matter? (Home Premium Pro Ultimate) on what you get?

I heard If you have W7 Pro you get W10 Pro or something like that?
>>
>>54716943
Ah alright, i think I'll take the extra step and upgrade from Windows 7/8

So, should I upgrade from Windws 7 Ultimate? I think that's the best one usually right?

>>54716945
It's probably safer upgrading from W8 to W10.
>>
>>54716956
Just follow >>54716785 steps.
You'll just need to activate Windows 7 with the latest DazLoader.

>pirating Windows 10
That's the stupid way where it'll eventually fall off.

Using Daz or some sort of loader that emulates the SLIC table under OEM Activation 2.0 in Windows 7 gets you a permanent whitelist at Microsoft for your motherboard (essentially, a free OEM license).

Pirating directly on 8, 8.1, or 10 is a KMS or other compromised key that Microsoft can detect and blacklist later giving you the "windows is not genuine" message.

Yes. Just don't use Microsoft toolkit. You want to install a copy of windows and then use a loader like Daz which fakes OEM Activation 2.1. DO NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 7 ENTERPRISE. Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate. Both have the same upgrade path to ten (Windows 10).

Make sure the hash of the Windows you are downloading matches the microsoft official hash (I recommend installing Hashtab as a utility, then you can right click the downloaded file -> Properties -> file hashes, then google the hash to make sure it matches the MSDN hash).

Install windows, activate with DAZ.

Then install these Windows updates (the first is a prerequisite to the second, which puts many windows updates up to May 2016 in one file that's much quicker to download/install):
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3125574
REBOOT YOUR PC AFTER THE 3125574 UPDATE - some people have issues if they install a second update immediately after.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3125574

Then use the media creation tool to create a Windows 10 USB or DVD:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3125574

Put in the disk (or plug in the USB drive) and initiate the update on the computer you just installed with 7. LAUNCH THE UPGRADE TOOL WHILE IN WINDOWS 7. This will get you your free activation on Windows 10 that is tied to your mobo.

Why would you even do this long process just to get the "activation tied to your mobo"?

Isn't it also just digital entitlement?

You can literally download a Windows 10 iso from here: https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10ISO

The first time it activates and every time after the first use on a different computer you'll need to activate with MTK.
What the fuck is the issue with this way?
It's way faster.
>>
>>54718738
Windows 10 is a free UPGRADE, not a free-for-all. If you install Windows 10 clean from disk or USB, it will not be activated. You have to launch it from windows.

During the upgrade triggered from Windows, it checks the activation status.
Retail keys are upgraded to a digital entitlement against the mobo. (You can also run the Windows 10 installer clean and put in a Windows 7/8/8.1 retail key and it will activate).

OEM Activation 2.1 under windows 7 (OEM computers or Daz loader) are upgraded to a digital entitlement against the motherboard serial. Since under OEM Activation 2.1 every computer from a manufacturer with a given windows edition had the same key in the BIOS, they can't distinguish Daz from real OEM computers.

KMS loaders (many of them, including the Microsoft Toolkit) remain on KMS activation. They are not given a digital entitlement, and if Windows detects the KMS loader or that the key is fake, you fall out of proper activation.
>>
>>54718772
>If you install Windows 10 clean from disk or USB, it will not be activated
But it was.
I downloaded an Win 10 is from the link I posted in a VM and got digital entitlement. That's what you want right?
Doesn't it activate for you?
When I made a second VM and used the same iso, I had to use MTK and it worked too.
>They are not given a digital entitlement, and if Windows detects the KMS loader or that the key is fake, you fall out of proper activation.
I can't see how this will ever be a problem. The tools will always get you activation unless MS suddenly comes up with some new unbeatable tactics.

I've been building computers and activating Windows for a long time and digital entitlements whitelisted against the mobo are better. KMS Hacktivation ends up breaking, then I get to fix the Windows status on the computers of family and friends who pirate Windows.

I didn't even use DAZ, I just edited my BIOS files and edited the SLIC table in and loaded the XRM-MS cert by command prompt.

Having SLIC activated Windows 7 is the best way to ensure your activation on a given mobo never gets flagged as non-genuine. If you want to chance it on KMS, you can. But again, I do PC work for family and friends, and I've already seen KMS activated upgrades of Win10 go to non-Genuine.

Okay there are two ways to go about this now...

First of all, do you have a Windows 7 or 8 / 8.1 key legit? If so, go to the microsoft site and download an ISO / bootable USB creator for Windows 10 . Using a new version, you don't have to do the whole in-line upgrade, but can actually just drop in your earlier Windows product key and it will automatically activate the right version of W10 for you (ie Make sure its a Win 7 Pro or Ultimate, or Win 8/8.1 Pro key in order to get a Win10 Pro unlock. Otherwise, you'll be stuck with the basic Win10.).

Don't have a legit Win 7 or 8 / 8.1 key in the proper version you want? Okay, that's fine. Two options. First, go to hardware forums and shit and you can buy a Win 7 Professional or Ultimate key for literally $20 or less. That's one way if you don't mind spending a little money. Otherwise, install Windows 7 and use one of the activators like Daz Loader that slipstreams in a proper key of your choice. As long as it activates and appears genuine etc... you're good. DO NOT USE A VOLUME LICENSE TOOL. That's something different entirely. Then, run WIndows Update or whatever tool allows you to kinda force the upgrade to Win10, which will then be treated as a legit upgrade in perpetuity.

In both cases, you'll end up with MS taking a hash of your system and using it to authenticate - you will no longer need a product key anymore for Win10 Pro etc. Now, the only issue is if you replace enoeugh hardware, like the motherboard etc... that the hash will differ, so you'll need to do an old school "call microsoft, rearm" just like you did when you reinstalled your cd keys for Win XP and 7 enough and they said you used up all your activations.

Hope this helps.

Thanks anon

I found an alternative option, getting a W10 STUDENT VERSION from my school, is this very inferior compared to the other W10 versions?

I might just do the W7 upgrade

Also I hear a lot of dangers regarding buying W7 keys, I heard they get caught by MS months later, this is a very very rare occurance right
>>
>>54716542

You fucked up. You pirate windows 7 and let it auto update into a completely legit copy of windows 10.
>>
>>54719886

If your student version is Windows 10 Pro (or something like W10 Enterprise) , then iits fine. Use that. If not, the non-Pro version misses some features that may be more useful, so it may be a good idea to get a key that will end up with W10 Pro instead.

Buying W7 keys is for the most part, not an issue. There are absolute tons of them for sale - yeah, some are shifty or whatnot, but if you buy them from a reputable user on a hardware enthusiast forum, you'll likely get a good one. Likewise, remember that you can go from a completely pirated Windows 7 using OEM keys - (ie Daz Loader uses these, and they can't be deactivated because it would mean tons of OEM hardwaare sold with these keys would be useless), which flawlesssly activate as genuine Windows. Then, you can take the upgrade to W10. Oh, just make sure to use the latest DazLoader and to ensure you set your motherboard/Windows 7 install to "legacy/BIOS" as opposed to UEFI, at least for the Win7 install - DazLoader cant' do what it does with UEFI mode turned on. If you have older generation hardware you won't have this issue, but if you're using any... Sandy Bridge / Ivy Brridge or newer era hardware it probably will affect you. After you get your W10 Pro activated and thus MS hashes your hardware, you can just go and download an up to date W10 USB/ISO, reinstall Windows (turning UEFI back on etc..) and just install Win10 without any sort of product key and it will automatically be granted an activation, as it will connect to the MS servers, and see the record of the hash from before compared to your current hardware and authorize you.

Of course, if you can at least find a Win7 Pro/Ult or Win 8.1 Pro key etc.. you can save yourself some time by just doing the Win10 ISO/USB install and using the key, which it will then check out as legit, activate, hash etc... so you have options.

>Otherwise, install Windows 7 and use one of the activators like Daz Loader that slipstreams in a proper key of your choice.

Will windows 8.1 > daz loader > win10 update work?
>>
>>54720175

No, DazLoader is only for Win7. I don't think there is a permanent way to (pirate style) activate Win8 / 8.1 or Win10. There are KMS / Volume License style activators, but these are not as easy as the "one time' thing from Daz / SLIC mobo keys etc

Volume License activators work fine, but they are designed for well large volume companies, so any version of Windows via VL (most Enterprise versions etc) basically are designed to check in once per month or 90 days with a key management server (KMS) to see "Yep, its authorized" Microsoft sells these to businesses and uinversities to make it easy to deploy a fuckton without having to have an individual key for each workstation etc.

Now, there are KMS "emulators" like KMSPico and Windows Toolkit that basically install a KMS-like program invisibly on your PC and sets it up so activation is checked against that server. Then when Windows asks "Hey, are we legit" your own PC answers back "Yeah, sure are!". This works fine most of the time, but sometimes a Win update will break something or whatnot and you'll need to fix it etc... its not as reliable than an an old school 7 embedded key which then Microsoft believes is legit so you don't have to "fool" your PC into thinking its talking to a KMS every month.

Stiill, there are plenty of people that use KMS / VL activations and they work fine, but its just a bit more hassle than the Win 7 only DazLoader / SLIC setup.

Bummer, my current research states I can't usb install windows 7 on skylake motherboards so I can't go Daz Loader route. I don't plan on buying an optical drive just for this and I don't have anyone I can borrow from

>No, DazLoader is only for Win7. I don't think there is a permanent way to (pirate style) activate Win8 / 8.1 or Win10. There are KMS / Volume License style activators, but these are not as easy as the "one time' thing from Daz / SLIC mobo keys etc

There is. Product activation came a long way. The OEMs wanted the users to be able to unbox the computer and start using it. So once Windows got license keys they had to come up with a way for the computer to hold the key so when a recovery disk was used activation was automatic.

In XP we got OA 1.0. OA 1.0 consisted of a static table in the BIOS paired with a digital certificate issued to the OEM. It's the same for every machine an OEM has. If the SLIC table and certificate match for the given edition, Windows is pre-activated. This was not really employed as an activation trick for XP because fake volume license keys were easier.

Vista comes with OA 2.0 which is essentially the same (7 is OA 2.1). However, volume license keys are gone, replaced by MAK keys that still need to reach a server to activate with Microsoft. Some do KMS hacktivation, but it becomes very popular with DAZ and others to insert a shim in the bootloader that emulates the SLIC table and loads the certificate. Without extremely reliable detection of the bootloader shim (hard), Microsoft cannot effectively target this method of activation - or they'd deactivate millions of legitimate machines around the globe.

Enter Windows 8 and OEM Activation 3.0. Certificate is no longer relevant, and the key in each motherboard is unique. At the time of system assembly the OEM asks for a key, Microsoft asks for several serials on the board (via program), Microsoft stores this and then issues a unique key for the OEM to put in the UEFI/BIOS. Now if you have more than one computer running around with the same key it won't activate (if the serials don't match). Even if you did start masquerading with these keys they would only deactivate one real user.

From a functional perspective, this means you either have to get an out of channel retail key (which might be caught later, see Microsoftsoftwareswap on reddit - people always bitch later that it stopped working), or do KMS activation. Upgrading a Windows 7 box that had OEM activation (real or fake), Microsoft can't tell, and the Win10 upgrade maps into a digital entitlement against the mobo serials. Retail works the same if upgraded from previously activated windows (installing clean win10 and using the 7/8 retail key just activates with that key).

KMS however just remains KMS and is subject to deactivation. It's not mapped into a digital entitlement on the 10 upgrade, because volume licensing customers are not included in the Win10 offer - they're just entitled to use MAK keys with KMS on Win10 if they continue paying their software licensing & support to Microsoft.

I know that there are some utilities that can actually get around this issue, with host controller support etc... you can patch a windows 7 image. I think even some mobo manufactures offer patchers for this issue (you don't need to actually have the same mobo or manufacturer to use the patcher)

Well, if you don't want to go to that route and don't want to buy an external DVD/blu-ray drive (which isn't a bad thing to have around, really), the simplest thing to do is to buy a legit Win 7 Pro or Ultimate key, then just input it when you install Win10 via USB which sould work fine.

Here, I'll even give you a guy I know sells viable keys - https://hardforum.com/threads/fs-windows-7-pro-keys-volume-discounts-available.1881194/ . Tons of successful, happy customers and they're like $16. I think that's worth saving yourself the hassle. Also, HardForum is a good place for any kind of computer hardware/overclocking build info etc.. They're one of the best, older sites in the network along with Overclock.net and a few others.

I have a machine which has 10 running fine after upgrading from 7.

I want to replace the boot drive with an SSD, will this change in configuration invalidate my key? I'd really rather not write a whole win 7 installation just so I can install 10 on it, and it'd save time, too...

Here's some old pasta from /g/. Kmspico works on 10 but you'll need to find a clean iso else where. (Microsoft no longer allows you to dl clean isos)

ATTENTION:
Usage of GNU/Linux is strongly advised.

Microsoft Windows is non-free software. Read more at https://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu.html

>Windows 7
1. Download OFFICIAL windows .iso from Microsoft themselves:
https://sites.google.com/site/linuxlablibrary/windows-iso
(You probably want Win7 Ultimate)
Some people advise to download from softicle.com but they link to msft.digitalrivercontent.net too just like the link above. It doesn't matter therefore.

2. Activate with Daz Windows Loader
Download from here:

Check with the md5sum from here first:
http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/58464-Windows-Loader-Download

If you can find a legit Windows 7 Enterprise .iso (which has the same features as Ultimate) you can install that and activate it with Microsoft Toolkit if you want. Ultimate doesn't work with Microsoft Toolkit though, only Daz.
(http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/28669-Microsoft-Toolkit-Official-KMS-Solution-for-Microsoft-Products)

>Windows 8
1. Download a clean MSDN iso:

http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/47732-The-Windows-8-1-(-amp-related)-Repository?p=799068&viewfull=1#post799068

2. Verify checksum to ensure it has not been altered:

3. Burn iso to a DVD or USB flash drive and install

4. Download Microsoft Toolkit:

5. Run Microsoft Toolkit and select "EZ-Activator" in the Activation tab

The key is on your mobo, not your hard drive.
>>
>>54720571
Usually digital entitlements (activation against the system)
1) You installed windows within the past couple weeks and install it again
2) The mobo changes

If either of those applies and activation fails, Calling the activation line and telling them that yes it is you on the same exact machine or oh, the mobo died and they replaced it, usually the indian guy on the phone at MS will just push the activation through.

This assumes your copy of windows is activated via digital entitlement, which would be the case unless your Windows 7 system used KMS activation.

Are you people retarded? If you pirate windows 7 and then upgrade to windows 10 on it, it makes it a legit w10 installation.

If the Win7 was installed with KMS activation then the activation will usually hold after the upgrade, but it's activation that Microsoft can detect and deactivate later.

Copies of Win7 that used SLIC tables for OEM activation (either physical in the BIOS or emulated via loaders like Daz) get converted to a digital entitlement for Win10 and are permanently activated with Microsoft. They cannot deactivate it later as they have no way of telling whether your SLIC table activation came from a real OEM computer or not.

I know it looks bleak, but we must continue the good fight. Use Linux, build your desktops, buy mobiles that are Nexus style so you can use AOSP etc. write your representitives and call them etc... hell, tell them about Comcast in your area. Go to a local municipal government meeting and mention you;'re in the shit and demand they rein in Comcast and better yet, start a municipal broadband gigabit fiber project! Keep officials inundated with shit agaisnt the TPP / TTIP and other horrible trade agreements (ie most of them.) Hell, vote and get involved with third parties and help them win local and state gov't seats, before going for federal spots. Green Party reps in my area basically pirate-party friendly on tech issues (ie privacy is most important, corporate bullshit doesn't come before the common good etc). Hell, even on this very issue - keep writing Microsoft and giving them bad press about W10 privacy issues. They've all ready rolled back some issues like WiFi sharing because of the outcry. Use the tools that disable some of the more egregious data mining and tell them you won't buy anything from a locked down Windows Store (assuming you feel you have to use Windows at all) .


Don't give up hope! Get your shit together and get involved.
