Hello,

I've been searching in the issues already closed, and i have a bit of a struggle, maybe you'll be able to help me understand.

I have setup a Windows server 19, and used the KMS38 activation provided by the MAS_1.4 release.
Today i want to give this server a Real key and remove the KMS38 process.

I have found this here: https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/issues/8#issuecomment-742148274

`To remove the KMS38 activation, run the below commands in the command prompt with admin rights,

net stop ClipSVC
rundll32 clipc.dll,ClipCleanUpState
Reboot the system,
Done.

To remove the Windows KMS activation,
Open command prompt as admin and enter your activation key / generic retail/oem key (non KMS key) with the below >command,

slmgr /ipk ----*****

That's all, normally there is no need to do further cleaning.`

And also this inside https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/blob/master/MAS_1.4/Separate-Files-Version/Activators/HWID-KMS38_Activation/ReadMe_KMS38.txt

`Why is the script setting the specific KMS host to 127.0.0.2 (localhost)?

  • By doing this, global KMS IP can not replace KMS38 activation but can be used with Office and
    other Windows Editions.
  • In case you don't like it, you can remove it with following codes, open CMD as admin and enter,

set "SPPk=SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform"
reg delete "HKLM%SPPk%\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f" /f
reg delete "HKU\S-1-5-20%SPPk%\55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f" /f`

By doing all of this, will i have an "official way" to activate my licence or am i missing something ?

Thanks in advance
