Introduction#
Compared to the previously popular KMS Pico tool, Microsoft Activation Scripts have higher security. Its code is open source, making it difficult to hide viruses, and there is no need to download cracking programs from strange websites. You can view the source code on Github.
According to the official documentation, this script supports three cracking methods:
- HWID: Only supports Windows 10 and Windows 11. It uses the key generated from the free upgrade of Windows 7 to Windows 10 to activate the system. Don't forget that when Microsoft forced the upgrade to Windows 10, even pirated Windows 7 was upgraded. This method requires the internet, and the key remains valid even after reinstalling the system.
- KMS38: Only supports Windows 10 and Windows 11. By tricking gatherosstate.exe, it continuously extends the 180-day trial period key, postponing the expiration date all the way to 2038. This method does not require the internet and does not leave any files in the system.
- Online KMS Activation: Supports Windows 7 to Windows 11 systems. It uses Microsoft's official Key Management Service to activate the key online, requiring reactivation every 180 days. This method can also activate older versions of Office products.
Of the three methods mentioned above, using the HWID method to activate the key is generally sufficient.
