### **FAQ**
|
|
|
|
#### **What does it do?**
|
|
|
|
* This program is a tool for researching and experimenting with retro Microsoft product licensing, for products released before 2012.
|
|
|
|
#### **How does it work?**
|
|
|
|
* [Enderman's XPKeygen Readme explains everything in detail.](https://github.com/Endermanch/XPKeygen)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### **Usage**
|
|
#### 1. Download the latest version of UMSKT
|
|
|
|
* *(GitHub account required)*
|
|
* Download the latest experimental version using the Actions tab ([Windows](../../actions/workflows/windows.yml?query=branch%3Amaster+is%3Asuccess), [Linux](../../actions/workflows/linux.yml?query=branch%3Amaster+is%3Asuccess), [macOS](../../actions/workflows/macos.yml?query=branch%3Amaster+is%3Asuccess), [FreeBSD](../../actions/workflows/freebsd.yml?query=branch%3Amaster+is%3Asuccess), [DOS DJGPP](../../actions/workflows/dos-djgpp.yml?query=branch%3Amaster+is%3Asuccess))
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ~~*(GitHub account \*not\* required)*~~
|
|
* ~~Download the latest release for your operating system and architecture from [the releases page](../../releases)~~
|
|
* No official releases right now, use the other method to get the latest version.
|
|
|
|
* **Note:** Before continuing, please ensure you have the `umskt` executable extracted and on UNIX-like systems, have execution permissions (`chmod +x umskt`).
|
|
|
|
#### 2. Run `umskt` to generate a key, or add `--help` or `-h` to see more options.
|
|
|
|
#### 3. *(Activation step for `Retail` and `OEM` only)*
|
|
* After installation, you will be prompted to activate Windows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Select the **telephone activation** method, then, run `umskt -i <Installation ID>` using the `Installation ID` the activation Wizard provides for you
|
|
|
|
#### 4. Profit!
