How to activate the official version of the Win10 first anniversary update?
This question is answered in two time periods. If you install before July 29, 2016, the activation method can be said to be varied, but if you activate after this time, I am afraid that the method is relatively simple. Let's discuss these two situations:
1. Activate before July 29, 2016
This time is the birthday of Windows10, and the deadline for Win10/Win8.1 to upgrade Win10 for free. Before this time, users who install Win10 for the first time can activate Win10 in the following three ways:
1. Enter Windows7/Windows 8.1 product key after installation or installation to activate
This method is suitable for new installation. The way, of course, if you upgrade the installation, you can enter the key once in the installer. It is not impossible. …… The key problem is that you want to install the activation for free. Corresponding to the detailed version, please refer to "My Win7/Which version of Win10 can Win8.1 upgrade to free?". To put it simply, if you have a Win7/Win8.1 Home XX version of the key, you can only install Win10 Home Edition for free; if you have Win7 Professional/Fairship, or Win8.1 Professional Edition, You can install Win10 Pro for free.
You can enter the product key in the following window during the installation process, but since the paste function is basically not available at this time, it is more convenient to fill in after installation.

▲ Caption: After installation, you can set → update and security & rarr ; activation, click “ change product key & rdquo; input
If using the built-in graphical interface activation is not very useful, you can consider using the following command (open the command prompt in administrator mode):
slmgr /ipk WIN7 or WIN8 key (press the Enter key)
slmgr /ato (press the Enter key)
2, upgrade and install Win10, automatically activate
This applies to Win7/which has been activated. Win8.1 upgrade to install Win10, this activation method is relatively simple. The first upgrade user only needs to complete the installation steps. After entering the desktop, the system will automatically activate the existing system without manual operation by the user. However, the premise is still to correspond to the good version. According to the corresponding rules given in the first case, if the user upgrades across the version, the system cannot be activated automatically, and the corresponding version needs to be purchased.
If you find that the system cannot be activated automatically and the version corresponds to no problem, you can try to activate it by manually executing the following command:
slmgr /ipk W269N-WFGWX-YVC9B-4J6C9-T83GX
slmgr /skms Kms.xspace.in
slmgr /ato
3, use Win10 key to activate
This needless to say, if you have Win10 product key, whether it is during the installation process or after installation Yes, using this activation directly should make Microsoft happy. Need to be reminded that after activation, it is best to connect your Microsoft account, so that after you change the accessories, or after reinstalling the system, the activation is not normal, you can use your account to log in to help solve the activation problem, this is the first anniversary update The new policy of the edition.
Second, activate after the deadline
If you have not activated Win10 on this computer before, you can use Win10 key activation, this is the most traditional method. If you have activated Win10 on this computer before, as long as you also install the version that was activated at that time (the method is not limited), you can always activate it automatically. If there is a problem with the activation, you can use the Microsoft account you are connected to at that time to help solve. You can also use the command in the second way in the first case.
Note that the activated Microsoft account is not available for activation of new devices. The Microsoft server will verify that the machine information you are logged in is consistent with the machine information you are binding.
