Also, in other words, keys that can activate the Computer without the KMS Host will only be either MAK, OEM or Retail? KMS Client key can never get the computer activated online? Please, correct me if I am wrong?Ģ.

But if some Computer is using Publically available KMS Client keys then it would be of no use until the ComputerĬomes into contact with the KMS Host which would activate it? Please, correct me if I am wrong?ġ B. So, KMS Host can exhaust, but not KMS Client Keys as you mentioned that they are publically available so they never can. This helps the community, keeps the forums tidy, and recognises useful contributions.

Yes, KMSclient product keys are listed publically, links are in this wiki: KMSclient product keys can only be activated by a KMShost, cannot be activated by MSFT internet webservice.Ĥ. Yes, you can use a KMShost product key on only 6 hosts, and each host can only be activated 10 times: referģ. KMShost product can be exhausted, but KMSclient product key cannot be exhausted.Ģ. Is there really a thing called KMS Client key?ġ. For KMS Client, I am only guessing since if KMS Host does not activate it, it will be activated by the Internet and Microsoft Servers would have the count for a particular KMS Client key and would block it after exhaustion.Ĥ. Would be limited by numbers and would be able to plan better.ģ. For KMS Host, are there only number of tries allowed? If so, how many? I ask this because then one can plan in the case of Company having geographical locations wanting to have KMS Hosts at different locations because of network constraints Just elaborate a little on the Exhaustion.Ģ. So, basically KMS Host as well as KMS Client key for a Product both can Exhaust.
