Windows 11 Pro for Workstations Full Version

After you install or reinstall Windows 11, it will ask you to activate Windows .

If your Windows 11 system has not been activated, it will appear a watermark

at the lower-right screen saying Activate Windows.

Go to Settings to activate Windows.

It would be annoying to have the watermark on screen.

Besides, if you don’t activate Windows 11, you can’t change the Windows

Personalization settings like lock screen, wallpaper, theme, etc.

In today’s post, I will show you how to activate Windows 11 Pro for Workstations for FREE using KMS client product keys. So you can renew it whenever you want. Actually, the license will be renewed automatically every 7 days by default. In this way, just do it one time and forget it completely.

As you can see in the below screenshot, we’re using a copy of Windows 11 Pro for Workstations and it is not activated. We need to activate it to made it function normally

and remove the licese watermark on the desktop.

Method 1: Manual activation

The first way, we can use the Windows Command Prompt (CMD) to activate the

Windows 11 Pro for Workstations license free forever without any software or activation tools.

1️⃣ Click on the search icon or press the Windows key on your keyboard, type cmd

in the Windows search box, right click on the best match Command Prompt then select

Run as administrator.

2️⃣ Copy, right click to paste all below commands into CMD window at once

then hit Enter.

Note: If you see the error 0xC004F074, it means that your internet connection is unstable or the

server is busy. Please make sure your device is online and try the command “ato” again until

you succeed.

3️⃣ Your Windows 11 Pro for Workstations is activated using a KMS key. It’ll reactivate

after every 7 days automatically. So, your Windows is permanently activated.

Product activated successfully.

Tip: Why we need cscript in the commands. By just executing a vbs script file, output gets sent to

dialog boxes, which need your interaction. Using cscript, the desired output gets printed to your

current stdout.

4️⃣ Finally, check activation status of your Windows Server again. Open Windows Settings

then check Windows Activation.

Method 2: Using PowerShell

The second way, we can use the Windows PowerShell to activate the Windows license.

The steps are similar with using cmd method, but the commands would be changed

a little bit.

1️⃣ Right-click on the Windows Start icon then select Windows PowerShell (Admin)

to open an new elevated PowerShell window.

2️⃣ Copy, right click to paste all below commands into CMD window at once then hit Enter.

cscript //nologo $env:systemroot\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk NRG8B-VKK3Q-CXVCJ-9G2XF-6Q84J
cscript //nologo $env:systemroot\system32\slmgr.vbs /skms kms.msgang.com
cscript //nologo $env:systemroot\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato

3️⃣ Your Windows 11 Pro for Workstations is activated using a KMS key. It’ll reactivate

after every 7 days automatically. So, your Windows is permanently activated.

Method 3: Using batch script

The benefits of this method are:

When activating with the batch script, you don’t have type the activation commands
manually on each client computers.
The script can activate all Windows client (7/8/8.1./10/11) and Windows server (2008/2008R2/2012/2012R2/2016/2019/2022) editions.
The script can be used on either Windows 64-bit or Windows 32-bit.
You don’t need to know which Windows edition you’re using. Script detects your
Windows edition automatically then activates it.

This one is not recommended anymore due to the new update of Microsoft. In case,

if you have to use the batch script for automation, you can continue with below steps:

1️⃣Our script The first step is download the batch script to your computer by

clicking on the below button. Our script is safe, but you should verify the security

and contents of any script from the internet you are not familiar with.

2️⃣ Right click on the downloaded kms.zip file, select Extract All… from the right-click

context menu to extract it to your computer.

3️⃣ Navigate to the extracted folder. Right-click on the extracted batch file then

select Run as administrator to run the batch file with admin rights.

Windows 11 may give you a pop-up window saying Windows protected your PC.

You would receive the popup if you attempt to run or install an application that Windows

doesn’t recognize. To run the script, click on the More info link then click Run anyway button.

The script will run automatically. If has no issue, you should see the below screenshot.

The Windows has been activated. You can now press any key to close the command

prompt window.

The last way, we can active Windows license using a PowerShell script. The script details

can be found at my GitHub. When using the PowerShell script, you can active all Windows

editions (Cliens and Server editions) included: Windows 7/8/10/11 and Windows Server 2008/2012/2016/2019/2022.

This method works similar with the batch script method but you don’t need to download

anything. And we had no pop-up window saying Windows protected your PC anymore.

All you need to do is right-click on the Windows Start icon 🪟, select Terminal (Admin) to

open a new PowerShell window in elevated mode.
