Up-to-date method to remove “activate windows” watermark

[COWZYOV]

I already tried the regedit method...
Any others you guys know about?

I just don’t want that watermark on fullscreen games and interfering with my ammo counter and stuff...

[Bing Chilling]

i doubt thats something your allowed to talk about on the forums

[Magma Dragoon]

Pay for a retail license

[emoticorpse]

activate it

[Blueberry {JESUS IS LORD}]

wallpaper engine can remove it i think by giving you an animated wallpaper

If it bothers you pay for the licence, there is no method of removing it. Some shady site might offer you some methods but more then likely it`s just bs trying to infect your PC.

Just find cheap digital license on line,or live w the watermark

[XxzodazZ]

Oh yeah and if that pc had a windows seven key for it I believe you can activate with it

[_I_]

reboot, it will go away for a few hours

or you can get cheap keys for around $10

Run this cmd within powershell with admin powershell “(Get-WmiObject -query ‘select * from SoftwareLicensingService’).OA3xOriginalProductKey”
Or wmic path softwarelicensingservice get OA3xOriginalProductKey if using cmd prompt.
Or: Check this program to reveal if there’s a key embedded in the BIOS:
https://neosmart.net/OemKey/
Or: Download and run this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/showkeyplus/9pkvzcprx9nv to find all keys used on the PC.
If it doesn’t show any key then don’t worry as this is normal if the PC came with Windows 10.
If it shows a key then please let me know - do not post the key.

Also run this to see what is currently installed & post the screenshot:
Right click on start & choose powershell with admin & enter: slmgr.vbs /dlv
This will show a popup showing whether your license is OEM, Retail, or Volume amongst other information.
If this states you have a volume licence then there is away to return to a legal key if there's one in the BIOS.
If it does please post back.

If there’s no embedded key & you’re running a volume license then you can purchase a genuine Win 10 key here for much less:
