This video was planned prior to the sponsorship, and I felt it was a good integration. The sponsor had no oversight into the editorial direction of the video and purely approved the pre-roll.

It's back... (also now unsponsored since that was a point of contention) RU-vid really does not allow piracy, or piracy discussion and getting this reinstated was a nightmare. As a result, comments on this video will be moderated more heavily than usual. In reference to one tool that is apparently legitimate that I didn't mention, I actually didn't know it existed (it's been a while since I cared about windows piracy), and the main issue here is not the legitimacy of the tool, but the fact trying to download it is very likely to get malware.

Alright, let me break this down: Minecraft support relies on an unnamed free and open-source tool to fix their licensing mess, which is conveniently hosted on Microsoft's own developer platform. And you're seriously telling me that downloading this tool, with its fully open and auditable source code, is somehow going to infect your system? Come on, man, get a grip on reality. Let's not pretend we don't see what's going on here. You made this video to rake in affiliate cash by pushing shady Windows keys from sketchy stores. Microsoft has a history of going after people for dealing in these dodgy OEM keys, and you're out here endorsing a worse fix than straight-up piracy.

I use that regularly and find it quite safe. If you want to activate off-line though, you could use KMS underscore VL underscore All. It is also reasonably safe. It could trigger antivirus, but in my personal experience, all you have to do is make an exclusion folder. You may also have to exclude the file if you have renewing tasks.

@paulstelian97 7 дней назад

Massgrave is also open source and was actually found to be pretty good and legit. It even has a new HWID method now that the old one (pretend to upgrade from activated Windows 7 or 8.1 with no KMS) doesn't work anymore. The only risqué part of this is the tiny modification to gatherosstate.exe (and that's the only thing I haven't verified myself to not be malicious, but it's small enough that it can be confirmed to not be malicious). It's the only activator I will ever recommend, at least until it gets killed off for some reason.

The most based way to activate windows is with using the Microsoft Activation Scripts project. You don't support sketchy 3rd party sellers selling keys from unknown sources which could be revoked in the future for various reasons, causing you immediate issues. Additional benefit is that you don't monetarily support Microsoft. Quality data is the new gold and they will farm it regardless you pay $139/$199 or not. Remember that different countries have different legislation surrounding this, so it's not even necessarily problematic for users.

@Tigrou7777 5 дней назад

Microsoft and Anti-malware companies are somewhat responsible for this by automatically flagging any activator as malware (based only on (y" signature), regardless if it is harmless or not. As a result some users will execute those with A/V disabled and this give full freedom for malicious people to put crap into it. In the end it does not really matter, you should stay away from those activators and instead buy a proper key OR (if you can't afford it) use a script that you can read yourself and trust.

Another good way to get keys is the curb! I found a bunch of windows 7 keys from old dumpster PCs and whenever i find them I just take a picture of the key and leave the PC It worked on my win10 install and win11 on my steam deck.

During Windows XP and 7 days I used the same two activators for YEARS and didn't get hacked. Either that or I did but they didn't find anything worthwhile to steal so they left. I switched to Linux since, but I still have the KMSPico XP one in my torrent client with 200+ share ratio and counting xD

The question is what's the point of doing so when the only malus of not activating is an easily removable watermark

Legit the only time I've gotten a virus was from a fake activator I installed on Windows 7 that started filling my computer with random programs. At least it was a fresh install...

You can use Windows unactivated... unless it's pre-Windows 8

@AquaCobalt 6 дней назад

You can also use windows 7 unactivated perfectly fine. Pre-Windows 7 is where you can barely use your computer if you hadn't activated windows.

@@TylerFurrison maybe you were using a really old version of windows 7? I know Windows Vista logs you out, but not 7, because I've used 7 unactivated and all it does is change your wallpaper back to black.

@@TylerFurrison I did some research and I couldnt find anything related to windows 7 logging out if unactivated. The worst it would do was pester you with activation reminders and stop giving you updates. The only reason windows 7 would log you out would be power plans...

@@AquaCobalt Huh, maybe I'm misremembering then? I could be conflating Vista and 7's activation stuff, because Vista DID log you out.
