Windows 8.1 activation error 0xC004F074

i just bought a new Lenovo ideapad with windows 8.1 pre installed and i m unable to activate windows.
I don`t have the product key so i installed the magical jelly bean keyfinder, got the 25 product key installed and tried the three methods on the most of the blogs (slmgr.vbs
–ipk xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx, and Slui 3, and sfc
/scannow) with no success. Any Clue.
thanks in advance

    Hi,
    As the pre installed system activation belongs to OEM manufacture, in my opinion, it would be better to contact Lenovo to check why their system doesn't activated. If this is your laptop itself problem, you could ask lenovo to help you rebuild your system
    and activate it.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • Windows 8 Pro (re)Activation Error: 0xC004F074 and 5 things that do not fix it

    I pre-apologize if the answer is buried somewhere on this forum already; if it does exist, please point me towards that thread
    OK, I bought a used laptop with dual boot Win7x64 / Win8Prox64 in Feb. 2013. Windows 8 booted up and ran just fine for the first six months. I don't know if it had anything to do with it, but I installed Office 2013 in the Windows 8 partition not long ago,
    and it seems that after that Windows 8 kept issuing pleas to "activate windows" (but no complaints from Office 2013, which is a HUP installation from my work). On the bottom right side of the screen it now says Windows Pro 8 Build 9200, and on top
    of that is the light gray plea to (re) activate Windows. There have been no hardware changes to the laptop. 
    I finally got annoyed enough this weekend to try to resolve it, without success. Here are the five methods I tried, and the results:
    Attempt 1:
    go to Control Panel > search Windows Activation > choose Windows Activation
    Response:
    Windows isn’t activated
    Windows can’t be activated right now. Try activating Windows later. If this issue persists, contact your system administrator or technical support department for assistance.

    CMD (run as admistrator) sfc /scannow
    Response:
    No errors reported.
    All I want to do is (re)activate Windows 8, but it seems to be fighting me all the way.  When you try to find the United States toll free number for Windows 8 activation (a la SLUI 4) on the Microsoft Customer Service site, it simply says the software
    will provide the phone number. 
    So here are my questions for the Forum members:
    1) Why did Windows 8 unactivate itself?
    2) What the heck is Key Management Service as it relates to Windows 8 Pro? My limited interpretation is that like Office 2013, Windows is trying to go to a remote server to verify the license (?).
    3) Is the version on this laptop not a standalone version? Is it a bogus or hacked installation, and how can you tell for sure? Could a virus have done this?
    4) What is the path of least resistance to fix the activation issue? I don't mind calling MS customer service as a last resort, if needed, but wanted to see if there was anything else I could fix on my end before doing that.
    Thanks in advance for your input, ask for any other info that I have not covered.

    Please run Slmgr.vbs /dlv and look if you see a KMS server configured.
    Check this guide for KMS issues:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee939272.aspx
    Yes you can buy a Win8 Pro license at the MS store and enter the key. This doesn't impact your tools.

    Hi,
    It sounds like your computer is trying to access a KMS server for some reason. Are you sure you installed a MAK-key on your computer?
    For further troubleshooting regarding eventual KMS-issues, please give us (masked of course) the output from the command 'SLMGR.vbs /dlv'

  • Windows 8.1 Activation Error 0xC004C003

    Hello. I have a HP ENVY 17t-j000 Quad Edition CTO Notebook PC and recently I have been having many problems with it and things were constantly messing up so I decided to back up all of my files and restore my computer to factory settings. After I had done all of that I logged in for the first time and since I bought it with Windows 8 pre-installed that was the OS that it was running. I looked at the bottom right side of my desktop and it said Windows 8 Build 9600. I also went to my PC settings to personalize my computer (change the lockscreen picture and whatnot) and it said I had to activate windows first. I went to the tab that said activate windows and it said something was wrong with my product key (I cannot remember). Then after that I decided to just update to Windows 8.1 via the Windows store application in my start menu. After I updated to Windows 8.1 it still had the watermark on the desktop but it now said Windows 8.1 and Build 9600. I went to the tab that said activate windows and it said "This product key doesn't work. You might need to get in touch with the store or company you bought Windows from, or you can buy a new key from Microsoft."  Farther down on the page it had a place where I could click on error details and when I clicked on it, it said "Error code: 0xC004C003 Error description: The activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked." I looked up how to fix this error code and on the windows support page it said to contact the company you purchased your system from and request help or a new product key or have them look it up for you. If I could get help on getting this fixed it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Luke Chelcun

    Hi LChelcun
    I'll try helping you,
    This issue occurs because the incorrect permissions are set on the Tokens.dat file or this file is corrupted.
    Try this:
    Click Start, and then type cmd in the Search box.
    Right-click cmd, and then click Run as Administrator.
    At the command prompt, type the following command depending on the operating system and then press ENTER:
    icacls "%windir%\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WSLicense" /grant "
    (between icacls & "%windir% there is a SPACE)
    {Now, The correct permissions for tokens.dat should look like this output from icacls:
    tokens.dat NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEMI)(F)
    BUILTIN\AdministratorsI)(F)
    NT SERVICE\WSServiceOI)(CI)(R,W,D) }
    Close the Command Prompt window.
    You must type this command from an elevated command prompt.
    OR
    To fix this problem automatically, click the Fix it link given below. Then click Run in the File Download dialog box, and follow the steps in the Fix it wizard.
    http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9779124
    Notes:
    This wizard may be in English only. However, the automatic fix also works for other language versions of Windows.
    If you are not on the computer that has the problem, save the Fix it solution to a flash drive or a CD and then run it on the computer that has the problem.
    Do not run the automatic fix on the machine that does not have the problem.
    The automatic fix will not rename the Tokens.dat file for you if tokens.bar already exists.
    RESTART SYSTEM.
    Hope this resolves your issue,

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 - Trial Version Activation Error

    I downloaded a trial of Windows Server 2008 R2 a few months ago.  I may have loaded the ISO onto another PC for testing, but the testing is no longer active.  However,  I am testing a new environment where I need to load Server 2008 R2 onto
    2 different servers for testing, before I activate.  I will be purchasing keys once my lab is fully functioning if needed.  One Virtual Machine will be moved to a server which will be running Server 2012 R2 Datacenter in the future.
    Back to the problem at hand.  When I try to Activate my Server 2008 R2 copy to get 180 days trial started, it errors out with 0xC004F074.  We don't use a KMS Server, and anything I can find seems to refer to this as an error.  I just need
    to activate a trial version.

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting here.
    Regarding the current issue, please understand this error code appears only during the time of activation when the Software Licensing Service reports that it cannot activate the product key
    since the Key Management Service cannot be contacted. Please follow the steps below to activate the machine again to see if it works.
    1) Open cmd(command prompt) with administrator rights
    2) Type slmgr.vbs –ipk xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx (x should be replaced by your 25 digit product key)
    3) Hit enter
    4) Type slmgr.vbs –ato (This will change the product key)
    5) Hit enter
    For details, please refer to the following article.

    I've personally used this solution (slui 3) to reenter a key when activation wasn't working, but we use MAK, not KMS, so YMMV. I think it may depend on exactly where in the chain things are going wrong.  
    This is an interesting bit from the link britishdhez posted (these are possible causes of this error message): 
    DNS record not published at _VLMCS._tcp.client.domain. This must be an SRV record, which the KMS server will automatically register. If you have disabled this, you will need to use a GPO on the clients to point them to the correct KMS server to use
    No network connectivity from the KMS client to the MS server on the KMS port (tcp/1688 by default). Install telnet on the client and run telnet KMS.Server.Name 1688 and make sure the screen goes blank
    Not more than 4 hours time difference between KMS server and client. Check that your time zones are correct. If using server core, run timedate.cpl
    No major hardware changes to the KMS server. If the KMS server is a VM and you have added a number of new devices, CPUs, memory etc, or P2Ved you will need to reactivate your KMS license
    The KMS service must have the keys to issue for the KMS client requesting a license. For example, if the KMS server is Windows Server 2008 and you are trying to activate Windows 7, you will need an update installed on the KMS server AND the correct KMS
    key for Windows 7."
    Also, I know you said no KB articles, but for completeness sake (for folks reading this at a later date who may be troubleshooting): 
    When trying to activate you get 0xC004F074 with description "The Key Management Server (KMS) is unavailable" - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/974998/en-us

    You need to post your question in the Windows Genuine forums.  Read the directions below and follow along:
    MGA
    Diagnostic Report:
    To properly analyze and solve problems with Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the diagnostic report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to desktop -http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )
    Once downloaded, run the tool.
    Click on the Continue button, after a short time, the Continue button will change to a Copy button.
    Click on the Copy button in the tool (ignore any error messages at this point), and then paste (using either r-click/Paste, or Ctrl+V ) into your post.
    One
    Issue Per Thread:
    Most Activation and Validation issues look the same, on the surface, but can have many different causes and fixes. This is why we ask for a diagnostic report and this is also why we ask that you create your own thread for your issue (in other words, don't post
    your issue in another person's thread). 
    It just becomes too complicated to try to troubleshoot multiple different issues in the same thread.

  • Windows Activation Error

    Hello there:
    I've received my new laptop tablet X61, windows vista home premium. When I try to activate by the Product key at the bottom of my laptop then I got the error code "0x80072EFD". Please help me to show this problem. Thanks a lot

    You don't need to activate the Windows installation if it's a new laptop. Windows is pre-activated in the factory with a volume license.
    The key is provided in case you want to install Windows Vista via an installation disk. This would require you to type the Product Key located on the COA. Then you would have to connect to the internet to allow activation of the Windows installation.

  • Windows 8.1 Pro Activation Error Code: 0xC004C003

    I bought a HP Desktop - 110-a04 last month and registered with HP but last week I realized that my Windows 8.1 Pro is not activated yet. When I tried to activate the Windows it gives me an error which is  "The activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked, Error Code : 0xC004C003. 
    Secondly, I want to downgrade my OS to Windows 7. Where can I find the step by step procedure?

    Hello @SIKhan,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. 
    I understand that you are looking to downgrade your operating system to Windows 7, and that your system indicates that your installed OS is not activated. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    Since your computer only has supported software for Windows 8.1, I do not recommend downgrading to an older version of Windows. Alternatively, you can ensure your installed version of operating system is activated by following the steps in this documnent on Windows 8 Product Activation.

I have the ebooks associated to one of them but every time I download Adobe Digital Editions, independently from what user I download it, it always create the Adobe Digital Editions associated to the worng user. If I try to delete the Authoritation it says that it is nor posible and recommneds me to try later, but I never get it.

    This is a user-to-user forum, and although Adobe staff make occasional appearances here, there is no guarantee that you will get any "officila" Adobe feedback.
    If you have difficulties to install the online installer from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, then download the offline installer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe; save it to disk, then run it after closing all browser windows.

    Hello,
    what concerns your wish about an uinstaller, so you should use
    https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html >>> AND note this "Read before you download a CS3 product". And esp, "You need your CS3 serial number to complete the installation" but this shouldn't be a problem for you, because you had an official version and so you can use all these informations like https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html

  • Windows 7 KMS client activation error

    hi,
    Windows 7 KMS client activation error
    Any known issue?
    Thanks

    This problem occurs if the KMS server does not find a valid Windows marker in the ACPI_SLIC table in the computer's BIOS program. This problem occurs for one of the following reasons.
    Cause 1
    You purchased a computer that has a qualifying Windows operating system installed. However, the Windows marker in the ACPI_SLIC table is corrupted.
    Cause 2
    You purchased a computer that does not have a qualifying Windows operating system installed. In this case, the Windows marker is not present in the ACPI_SLIC table.
