How to use the above Windows keys
First step: Open the Run dialogue box by pressing Windows key + R on your keyboard.
Second step: Type in “slui.exe” in the dialogue box. A User Account Control prompt should pop up for permission, here click on “Yes“.
Third step: Paste in any of the Windows 10 Serial keys provided above in the “Enter a product key” prompt box.
Method 2: Use of CMD ( command prompt )
First step: Head over to the “About your PC” section to check your Windows 10 version.
Second step: Open Command Prompt as an Administrator. To do this search for command prompt on your pc, right click and select “Run As Administrator”.
Third step: Paste in the following lines of commands.
"slmgr /ipk yourproductkey" (here yourproductkey references to Windows 10 Serial key) “slmgr /skms kms8.msguides.com” “slmgr /ato”
Method 3: Use of KMSpico
KMSPico is an activator that is used to activate Microsoft Products, such as Windows and Office. It is a pretty malware tool that every windows user should have. This is also a handy tool if you want to activate an older version of windows ( Windows 8 and 7 ) .
Step one: Disable any antivirus software on your computer (if applicable), such as Windows Defender / Firewall. This doesn’t mean the app is a malware though, it’s completely safe to use it.
Step two: Download the app from here and install it. You need Winrar to unzip the executable file of the program, then right click on KMSPico.exe and select “Run as administrator“.
Step three: When the installation is complete, simply click on the Start menu at the bottom left of the your screen screen, find the installed KMSpico application, and click it to launch it. You should see a small window with a red button and the Windows 10 logo.
Click the red button and for a couple of seconds until you see a notification saying “Program Complete” and a green background behind the Windows 10 logo.
Step four: Enjoy your fully activated Windows experience 🙂
