KMS38 Protection:
|
|
====================================================================================================
|
|
|
|
- If you don't know what KMS38 is, then first check it in the Read Me.
|
|
|
|
- By default, a KMS38 Activation is vulnerable to unintended overwriting/replacement and
|
|
neutralization by a 180-Day KMS Activator (non-KMS38 Activator).
|
|
However, with a few tricks you can ensure that no alternative KMS Activator can replace KMS38
|
|
Activation by accident or even on purpose. This script demonstrate how to do/undo that.
|
|
|
|
- Protect KMS38:
|
|
- How does KMS38 Protection work?
|
|
In the KMS activation method, the Windows Operating System first checks the KMS IP registered
|
|
as a specific KMS, and if that is not defined then it checks the Global KMS IP.
|
|
Another fact is that if LocalHost (127.0.0.2) is defined as KMS IP in the Windows 8.1 and 10 OS's
|
|
then Windows will not accept it as a valid KMS IP.
|
|
This script simply utilizes the above facts to protect the KMS38 activation from being
|
|
overwritten by any alternative 'normal' 180-Day KMS Activation.
|
|
|
|
Script steps-
|
|
- Check if Windows is activated with KMS38, if yes,
|
|
- Set that Windows edition specific KMS IP to LocalHost (127.0.0.2),
|
|
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f\XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
|
|
where X is Windows edition Activation ID.
|
|
|
|

|
|
- Done.
|
|
|
|
- Unprotect KMS38:
|
|
- Just undo above steps,
|
|
- Give administrator full control of that mentioned registry key.
|
|
- Delete that registry key.
|
|
- Done.
