In November last year, we reported on the removal of an unofficial KMS-related Windows activation, something which the company was planning to do for a while. The method worked by helping to activate Windows without an internet connection.

    Ok then why bring it up? Are you doing stuff in the workshop that requires you to activate multiple windows machines? Activate the single cnc machine and be done.

      1. Because I shouldn’t have to. It’s purely Microsoft forcing it.
      2. I only have 1 PC in my workshop, but there are companies in the same situation which have dozens.

        Not saying you should, I was just pointing out that you can get Internet/connection to your garage/workshop for like $100 these days. I’d assume most shops with that large of a footprint have some sort of IT service, in house IT, or buying it from a vendor that has that setup already.
