All that is needed is to turn on the computer and follow on-screen setup instructions. In business environments, the pre-installed Windows 10 is usually replaced with a different version of Windows 10.

Minimum requirements are often not enough to meet a user’s needs. It is better to have slightly more resources than what are the expected needs.

DVD boot installations are not recommended for high volume of installs because of the amount of physical interaction required with the system during the install. DVD boot installs are more suited for personal use or small organizations. DVD boot installs limit customization because the drivers and components included are limited. To customize during an install, use removable media, such as USB storage. Installations using USB flash drives are faster than DVD drives because the interface is faster.

For example, Windows 8.1 Home to Windows 10 Home or Pro. Use upgrade option during install process. During an upgrade, user data and compatible applications are retained. Any that are not are identified during the upgrade process. Wright and Plesniarski, Microsoft Specialist Guide to Microsoft Exam MD-100: Windows 10, 1st Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved.

Always verify licensing details with Microsoft before purchasing. Licensing options: Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) license – This license is tied to the physical device and cannot be transferred. Full package product (FPP) license – This license is purchased from a retail store and generally includes install media and a product key. This license type is transferrable. Volume licensing – This license agreement is used by organizations to obtain software directly from Microsoft to upgrade from an OEM license. This license type allows for customizable installs using images. Cloud licensing – This license is an upgrade from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise. This license type is enabled through Microsoft Azure AD. Wright and Plesniarski, Microsoft Specialist Guide to Microsoft Exam MD-100: Windows 10, 1st Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved.

If Windows 10 is not activated, some features are disabled. Wright and Plesniarski, Microsoft Specialist Guide to Microsoft Exam MD-100: Windows 10, 1st Edition. © 2022 Cengage. All Rights Reserved.

Significant hardware changes may require Windows 10 to be reactivated. FPP license allows 2 active automatic product activations, useful when transferring the license to a new computer.

A MAK has an allowance for a specific number of computers, rather than just one. Key Management Service (KMS) – Requires you to install KMS on a computer. Product keys are installed on the KMS server. Computers communicate with the KMS server on an internal network, then the KMS server activates the product key online. Active Directory-based activation – Requires communication between a computer and an Active Directory domain at least every 180 days.

May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.  Troubleshooting MAK Activation 1. Ensure there is an Internet connection. 2. If there is no Internet connection, you can use phone-based activation. 3. If there is no Internet connection, and phone-based activation is not convenient, you can use the Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) as a proxy activation. 4. If the VAMT cannot communicate with the Internet, export information from the isolated VAMT to a connected VAMT server for activation. After activation, export from the connected VAMT to the isolated VAMT. 5. If retiring computers while trying to activate new computers, and you’ve exceeded your maximum number of activations for a key, call the activation center and explain the situation.

Make sure the KMS server is updated to support Windows 10 clients. 2. Client computers must be configured with a generic volume license key (GVLK). 3. Windows 10 KMS server requires a minimum activation threshold of 25 activation attempts. 4. Verify that the service (SRV) record is present, and that the client computer can connect to the KMS server. In multidomain environments, configure the DNSDomainPublishList registry key on the KMS server to ensure the SRV record is created in all domains. 5. Verify the client computer has reconnected to the KMS server at least every 180 days. If that isn’t possible, then use MAK activation instead. 6. Use the command slmgr /dlv to view detailed licensing information. Wright and Plesniarski, Microsoft Specialist Guide to Microsoft Exam MD-100: Windows 10, 1st Edition. © 2022 Cengage.

Verify Windows has GVLK installed. 2. Verify Windows 10 is joined to Active Directory where Active Directory-based activation is configured. 3. Verify Windows 10 can properly authenticate to Active Directory. 4. Verify Windows 10 has authenticated to Active Directory within the last 180 days. 5. Verify the KMS key for Windows 10 was installed for Active Directory-based activation.

Windows 10 is available in several editions, which are easily installed or upgraded. Licensing and activating Windows 10 requires careful consideration to best fit each situation. This chapter introduced new and enhanced features of Windows 10 and how they help you organize and access information across different devices running Windows 10. Windows 10 offers a streamlined user interface that combines a Start menu similar to that from Windows 7 and live tiles similar to those of the Windows 8 Start screen. Minimum hardware requirements have not changed since Windows 7. Networks enable data sharing between computers. Windows 10 also enables the user to share computers and resources. Windows 10 can participate in the workgroup or domain networking models. Wright and Plesniarski, Microsoft Specialist Guide to Microsoft Exam MD-100: Windows 10, 1st Edition. © 2022 Cengage.
