Changing the activation code for Windows operating systems is very convenient in cases where there is simply not enough time to reinstall it on several computers at once.
Necessary
- - Internet connection;
- - Windows Product Key Update Tool.
Instructions
Step 1
Open the official Microsoft website. On the main page, select the Windows Products menu item. Here you will need to select exactly the menu of operating systems, so as not to make a mistake in the choice of programs in the future.
Step 2
Go to the help page. You will be presented with a large list of contained products for solving theses or other problems that arise when working with the operating system, as well as a menu of step-by-step instructions. Find the one responsible for changing Windows activation among them, then find the Windows Product Key Update Tool.
Step 3
In the new page that opens in your browser, select the operating system for working in the Windows Product Key Update Tool. Its versions are intended only for the last three Windows - XP, Vista and Seven. For each of them, only one version of the program is suitable, so if you need to change the activation of not only XP, but also, for example, Seven, download two different programs.
Step 4
Create a restore point on the computer where you want to change the activation code. Install the downloaded program, open it and run the operating system key updater.
Step 5
Follow all instructions on the installation menu. When finished, register your copy of Windows by calling technical support or using an Internet connection. At the same time, be especially careful when entering the license key, which is then best saved both in electronic form and in ordinary form.
Step 6
If you encounter any problems related to the operation of Microsoft developer programs, as well as when you change the activation key of Windows operating systems, be sure to contact technical support, especially if it concerns such serious changes.
