So, feel free to get back to this page anytime you're done installing Windows 10 on your computer.

Without much story, let's get started on how to activate Windows 10 for FREE without additional software 😋

Requirements:

  • PC/Computer with unactivated Windows 10
  • Active internet connection while parsing the CMD command {Automatic Method}
  • License keys for Windows Version {Manual Method}
  • Patience

We are going to discuss the manual and automatic ways of activating your Windows 10, however, it's advisable to use the manual method since the automatic method is not recommended due to the new update of Microsoft.

But, try the latter if the manual method doesn't work for you

Method 1: Manual Method

How to Permanently Activate Windows 10 Using KMS commands on command prompt

  1. Click on the Start button, search for "CMD" and run as an administrator
  2. Next, use the "slmgr /ipk yourlicensekey" command to install a license key
(yourlicensekey in the above code  is the activation key that corresponds to your Windows edition).


 Below is a list of Windows 10 license keys;


Home: TX9XD-98N7V-6WMQ6-BX7FG-H8Q99
Home N: 3KHY7-WNT83-DGQKR-F7HPR-844BM
Home Single Language: 7HNRX-D7KGG-3K4RQ-4WPJ4-YTDFH
Home Country Specific: PVMJN-6DFY6-9CCP6-7BKTT-D3WVR
Professional: W269N-WFGWX-YVC9B-4J6C9-T83GX
Professional N: MH37W-N47XK-V7XM9-C7227-GCQG9
Education: NW6C2-QMPVW-D7KKK-3GKT6-VCFB2
Education N: 2WH4N-8QGBV-H22JP-CT43Q-MDWWJ
Enterprise: NPPR9-FWDCX-D2C8J-H872K-2YT43
Enterprise N: DPH2V-TTNVB-4X9Q3-TJR4H-KHJW4


> Now, Click on "Enter" to run the command

> The next thing to do is to set the KMS machine address;

  1. Use "slmgr /skms s98.uk.to" or "slmgr /skms s8.now.im" to connect to my KMS server
  2. Finally, activate your windows by running the "slmgr /ato" in CMD

If you see the error 0x80070005, it means the server is busy. Please try the command “ato” again until you succeed.

Now check your activation status again 😎

Method 2: Automatic Method

How to Permanently Activate Windows 10 Using CMD

  4. Click on "Run as Administrator"

That's all on activating your Windows 10 without activation code or software.

METHOD 3: OFFLINE METHOD/OFFLINE ACTIVATOR

HOW TO ACTIVATE WINDOWS 10 WITHOUT INTERNET VIA KMSPico

I'm happy to announce that I've found a way you can activate your Windows 10 without using the command prompt or a Kms client key.

This approach is the best if you ask me because you don't have to start trying multiple activation keys or hoping for the cmd prompt to work. It permanently activates your Windows once you run the software on your PC.

Here's the best part: it also activates any Microsoft Office packages installed on your PC, plus it is an offline activation process. However, for copyright reasons, I won't advise you to use this tool for commercial and long-term purposes.

The name of the tool/software is the KMSPico 10 activator tool. Without wasting much time, let's get started.

  1. Download the KSMPico Windows 10 activator tool
  2. Now, turn off real-time protection by opening Settings > Virus and Threat Protection > Manage Settings > Turn off real-time protection. You must do this, or else the antivirus will see the program as a threat and delete it.
  3. Next, go to your downloads, unzip the downloaded file, and run the program as an administrator.
  4. Once you're inside the app, Click on the "Activate" button and wait for some seconds.
  5. This should activate your Windows alongside other Microsoft packages. However, you can confirm this by typing the below prompt into your CMD.
  6. Open your CMD from the search icon  > run as administrator > and type this "slmgr /xpr" then ENTER.




That's all about activating your Windows 10 without an activation code or software.

If the above tool doesn't work then you should reach out to us on WhatsApp since we've got an alternative app that should do the job.
