Windows 8 system activation method and various basic knowledge editor

The official version of Windows 8 will be officially launched in a week. With the upcoming listing of Windows 8, major media and Microsoft have increased their efforts to promote Windows 8. At present, the Internet is also crazy to download Windows8 system from MSDN and other channels, but all need to be activated, and not the official version, many friends want to take the lead, today's tutorial to come to a more complete Windows8 system problem. Let me talk about the activation and version of Windows8.

Explain the Windows 8 RTM version first. RTM: Fully called Release To Manufacture, is a version that is heavily compressed for OEM factories.

The OEM factories here generally refer to Sony SONY, Lenovo Lenovo, Dell Dell and other PC retailers. After the RTM software copy, this part of the manufacturer will add some drivers and software according to their hardware needs, such as Lenovo will add its features one-click recovery software, face recognition software, fingerprint recognition.

This kind of packaging will improve the experience of ordinary customers, and you can use the machine, but in terms of small editors, this will reduce the performance of the computer, so the computer after the purchase will be re-used. Install the original system, then add drivers, etc., or remove some of the OEM software that is worthy of scrap. (This directly breeds third-party software such as QQ butler, 360 security guards.)

All The copy will be based on the RTM version, including updates such as SP1 SP2 released later. The general copy will provide a 30-day trial period, and the enterprise version will provide a 90-day trial period, which does not require activation during the lifetime. It is an authorized trial, so it can also be called genuine. After the trial period ends, if it is not activated or passed. Third-party tools that are activated to continue using the system are called pirated.

There is also an original version and a modified version (generally called a pure version) corresponding to the concept of genuine and pirated. The original version is a copy of RTM, which is also on MSDN, BizSpark, Microsoft retail discs and other channel media. system. The revised version, as the name implies, is a modification on the basis of the original version. The more famous one is the modified version of Rainforest Woodwind. The OEM version is also a modified version because of the addition of third-party software and drivers. Generally, the original version downloaded through the network channel is recommended to use the MD5 software for verification, so that the comparison of the file fingerprint can determine whether the software has been modified, thereby avoiding the third party modifying the original version, embedding the Trojan, and the like.

Activation, all copies can be activated by Microsoft's key, it should be noted that the activation is not necessarily permanent, and the activation key can only activate one computer,

Microsoft has a service installed on your computer. This service will periodically connect to the server. If you confirm that your computer's license key activation record has changed through the host, you will be prompted that your system is pirated. At the same time, a certain number of changes will cause the key to fail.

To put it simply, it is:

1. Your key can only be used on one computer (enterprise volume authorization may be 100 or other numbers),

2. The key allows you to replace the hardware up to three times (some of the more authorizations). (Activate via network and telephone system)

3. If the current activation is overwritten by the next one, it will become pirated.

Recently, the God Key has been circulated on the Internet. Everyone has activated it, and it is still hard to toss the Microsoft phone system in the UK. This wave is the same as when Windows 7 first came out. Everyone is struggling to make a call, and the activation that is tossed in the way of RMB is immediately overwritten by the next activated person, and so on until the key expires.
