Adding Windows 10 to KMS

[hipsterdoofus]

Hello all,

I'm attempting to add Windows 10 to my KMS server, so I did what all of the guides say and ran slmgr /ipk [key] where [key] was listed as Windows Srv 2012R2 DataCtr/Std KMS for Windows 10. It successfully registered, but when I run slmgr.dlv it doesn't show that KMS is enabled and shows License Status: Notification and that grace time has expired.

 

My server itself is not showing activated, but running slmgr /ato isn't working either. Anyone run into this? Everyone else I'm seeing seems to just be activating with no issues, so I'm having a hard time finding a solution.

Yes I have, luckily I figured out the problem. Apparently some recent proxy changes were causing issues because IE on that computer was set to detect settings automatically. So while it was "registering" the number, it was not, apparently, activating against Microsoft. Once we unchecked the auto config in IE, it worked!

No 2008 R2 support if you want to do Windows 10. Office 2016 will probably have same requirement when it comes out, so mine as well rebuild on 2012 R2 now. I had mine rebuilt and backup activating in under 25 min with a VM deployment.

Microsoft released a patch in September for 2008 R2 servers.

I've just installed this but doesn't work for me. VAMT 3.1 just doesn't recognise any of the keys I have for Win 10.
