Your Windows license is about to expire. What to do (see)?
Do not pay attention. However, you are still using a pirated version of the operating system. Therefore, this message is simply the result of the system being hacked that way. This will not interfere with your computer work.
The best thing, of course, is to purchase a licensed Windu and not worry about this issue anymore.
As far as I know, you can ignore such a message (for example, at my former work, computers worked like this for several years, and nothing happened to them).
You don't have to do anything. It is expensive to buy a license. There are programs for example that work fine without updating. just a window will pop up. And if you get tired of it, you can reinstall it, but only this version will be without a license, but much cheaper.
Most in this case choose the path - download the activator and use it further for free. Since not everyone will allow themselves to purchase a license for the operating system.
You can also renew it several times windows work through the button Start. In the search, enter - cmd. Find and run as administrator. Enter - slmgr.vbs / rearm in the window and press Enter;. And you need to restart your computer.
Buy a license or use a free system.
For instance:

If you have a non-licensed Windows 8 operating system installed on your computer, then as you said earlier, you can buy a license or you can also download an activator. In both the first and second cases, the annoying message will disappear. What to do is up to you. Download the activator here. For example KMSpico.
In order for the OS activation message to disappear from the screen of your monitor, you will need to buy a license or reinstall the OS after downloading it and saving all your valuable data on your hard drive. Or look for a free OS activator Windows on the Internet and activate the OS with it.
If the term of your operating system license is Windows expires - you can simply ignore this message that appears and work calmly - nothing in the system itself will change. Alternatively, you can renew the license by purchasing it on the official website.
Windows 8 or is it 8.1? On the system tab, take a closer look at the product version.
Keys with shaft to any version. You can use an activator .. But this is not good. On the rsload.net forum, you can find and select any key ..
Look in search engines, there are many full keys, you just need to turn off auto-update.
If you are not annoyed by the pop-up inscription, then you do not need to do anything, since it will be expensive to buy a license.
At our work, they do not like to rattle, therefore such a message is very frequent, but we do not pay attention to it.
I have a licensed system and soon I will demolish and reinstall it again for money. But my antivirus is free and I have been using it for several years. Try to understand the message that came to you. Perhaps there is an offer to buy a licensed program or continue using it for free. Choose what works best for you. With antivirus, I opt for the free option.
When the inscription “Your Windows 10 license is about to expire” appears at the bottom of the screen, it creates a little discomfort in work, because it is impossible to get rid of this message in a simple way... The user cannot just pick up and change the screensaver while operating system Windows will not be activated. What to do when this message appears - we will discuss later in this article.
Windows license expiration message
Previously, Microsoft offered everyone to update their operating windows system to the new Windows 10 just released from the assembly line. This update was offered to everyone who was using the supported versions at that time. This promotion lasted until June 29, 2016. Unfortunately, it ended, and those who managed to switch to new version use to this day a free annual license. But the action is still going on for people with disabilities. How to troubleshoot "Your Windows 10 license is about to expire" later in the article.
So, if you have on your computer licensed Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and have no conscience, you can easily use the upgrade to version 10 for people with disabilities, because no supporting documents are required to be provided to the corporation. The only confirmation is clicking on the "Update now" button. After that, the image is downloaded to your computer. The image weighs over 3 GB. You can postpone the installation of a new operating system, and you can also create boot disk, all the details on the official Microsoft website. This promotion was extended until December 31, 2017. It is possible that the company will still extend free upgrade your product.
Upgrade to Windows 10
How to get rid of the message "Your license is about to expire"
To get rid of the message about the term of your license, we will simply disable the services that are responsible for reminding the user about this. For this:
We close the windows and restart the computer. The message "Your license is about to expire" will be forced to leave your computer on Windows 10.
KMS Auto - will eliminate the message about the expired license
KMS Auto is a special activator program that will help rid your computer not only of the message about an expired Windows 10 license, but also help you activate other Microsoft products absolutely free. Some conditions are necessary for the activator to work:
- Operating system - Windows 7, 8, 10.
- On the computer, you must have administrator rights to install the activator and allow it to change the computer resources.
- .NET Framework version 4 or higher.
- The program will take about 5 MB of space on your hard drive.
The activator has several modes of operation:
All these modes and methods of activation are based on the principle of deceiving the system in such a way that it "understands" that the server of the activator program is not on your computer, but somewhere very far away, in remote nodes of the Internet.
How to renew a license using KMS Auto
In order to use the KMS Auto activator, you do not need to have special knowledge. The program is very easy to use. You can easily find the activator on the Internet. When installing, it is better to disable the antivirus for a while. software and other firewalls on your computer. Then start the activator.
The most convenient and easiest way to remove the "Your Windows 10 license is about to expire" program is to use it in automatic mode... After installing the program, it is enabled by default, if you want to use the program in a professional version, with all the settings available in it, enable this mode on the "About" tab.
To start windows activation 10 press the button in the middle of the "Activation" program and the selection of modes will start. After successful activation, you will be informed about the completion of the program right there in the window. After that, you can set to reactivate your operating system every 25 days. The same steps are required to activate Office products.
There are hard times when in the usual way Windows cannot be activated. In this case, switch to the professional mode of the program and in the "Utilities" section you will need to try to install the GVLK file for your OS, and then try to activate it again. But this happens quite rarely, most often traditional way works.
For those who have Windows 8.1 installed, the activator needs the installed TAP driver, as well as the use of the IP address 10.3.0.2-254, or use a special adapter. All these necessary tools are built into the activator program. If you will use local way activation (without the Internet), then the TAP interface can not be used, but use the address of the computer on the network. In any situations with the program settings, if you went into the jungle, configured unknown parameters, after which the program does not work correctly - this can be corrected by selecting the "Reset settings" item in the menu. After that, the program will work stably, as it did during installation.
You just have to choose the most suitable way to get rid of the message "license expires" on Windows 10 among those described above.

How to Activate Windows 8.1 for Free Forever
Hello dear readers, in this article I will try to describe the free activation process for windows 8.1 as clearly as possible.
Today, according to statistics, about 70% of users use windows 8.1, and 50% of people face the problem of activating it. And it's not a secret for anyone that an unactivated system is a series of restrictions that create inconvenience during work.
Windows 8.1 activation methods
You can activate window 8.1 in two free ways:
1. Use license key, which can be found on the Internet without much effort, today there are a lot of such keys. But describe this way I will not, because it has a huge flaw, the keys are quickly blocked and they constantly need to be changed.
2. And I want to tell you about using a special activator program that activates your Windows once and for all. KMSAuto Net 2015 - yes, this is the name of this activator, which I will describe in this article. Why did I take this particular activator you ask? Indeed, there is really a huge number of activators on the Internet that will cope with the task at hand. And I will answer you, I liked this activator first of all because it does not need to be installed on a computer, this is good because it is not affected system files and thus activation does not affect system performance. Also in KMSAuto Net 2015 Russian interface and intuitive menu, and ease of use for me is in the first place.
How to activate Windows 8.1 using KMSAuto Net 2015
And so let's take a closer look at how to use it:
First of all, you need to download latest version KMSAuto Net 2015 on this. And yes, I also want to note one important factor that this activator is maximally compatible with antiviruses, so you do not need to turn off the antivirus during robots with it.
Now unpack the archive and click on KMSAuto Net.
In the window that appears, click on the "Activate" button
and then "Activate Windows"
We are waiting for the program to activate, as a rule it takes no more than 10 seconds.
Next, the program will prompt you to create a task for permanent reactivation, this is exactly the one key moment, which will constantly keep your system in an activated state and the activation of Windows will never fail.
To do this, you need to select the "System" tab, in the window that opens, select "Windows and Office every 10 days", and click on the "Create task" button.
Your entire system is activated forever.
Also add the site to your browser bookmarks Ctrl + D and fresh keys with activators will always be at your fingertips.
Windows 8.1 operating system, unlike previous versions, does not require entering a serial number during installation, but nevertheless requires activation. From the moment of installation, you have exactly three days to activate your copy of the operating system.
If you do not do this, you will be overtaken by some unpleasant consequences, namely:
- Limited possibility of personalization (it is impossible to change the desktop wallpaper, set the avatar to the system account etc.)
- It is impossible to remove from the desktop the inscription about the need to activate a copy of the operating system
- Periodically pops up a reminder to activate
- Force system reboot every few hours
- Microsoft does not officially confirm, but many users report problems with the printing and imaging subsystem (printers and scanners do not work) on an unactivated operating system.
If we are talking about legal activation, then private users can activate using the usual input of the serial number, activation directly via the Internet, or (if both methods are not available) activation by phone. Large corporate users can also activate using their own dedicated server (so-called KMS activation).
It follows from the above that if a user wants to "buy Windows with a 100% discount" he has two choices - to find a working serial number or emulate a running KMS activation server. If you are not planning to update Windows, then the serial number will work, but in order to make your Windows fully functional, only the second method will work. We will consider it.
So, to carry out the activation, do the following:

The Windows operating system is perhaps the most popular of all operating systems. According to statistics, 89% of all Windows platforms are installed personal computers... It is also possible to install it on smartphones. If you bought a computer, laptop or netbook "clean", that is, without an installed operating system, it is suitable only for watching movies or playing games through a USB flash drive or floppy drive, if there is one in the device. An operating system is required to access the Internet. But all this pleasure costs money. So, the licensed "operating system" will cost. within 150 - 200 $, depending on the classification. Add installation to that (but that's a trifle, around $ 5). In computers (laptops) with preinstalled Windows, these costs are already included in the price of the device itself. But here, too, there may be pitfalls. some manufacturers install, as it were, a licensed system, but in reality it turns out that this is just a program with a test period of 30 days. After which, you need to activate the system by entering the license key. And it's good if you were given it. And if not? You need to buy. This can be done by purchasing installation disk Windows at points of sale for the same $ 150 - $ 200 or purchase a key from Microsoft via the Internet for the same money. But, there is also a cheaper way to enjoy the benefits world wide web from using Windows, this is the installation of a pirated system with subsequent activation through special programs - activators. But here, too, you may be disappointed. Almost all antivirus software recognize activators as a threat (virus) and do not give an opportunity to activate, either by blocking the process, or simply by removing the program. Indeed, many activators are embedded with various viruses, so it takes time, patience and skill to choose safe program... But after activation, you will receive, in fact, a full-fledged operating system, which you can "customize" and use all the functions of the licensed system.

Thank you so much.
The ocean of sites shoveled.
I even downloaded several viral versions of activators.
Only your activator helped.
Fast, simple and effective !!! 111))) - 8 Horun Added 22:39 September 30th, 2018:
everything is simple !!! thanks.
- 9 Sasha Added at 14:11 December 3rd, 2018:
Thank you very much! Only your activator helped!
- a fairly simple and straightforward procedure (well, at least more or less) than what we are going to consider later in this article. What if you want to do something more advanced and complex with the license, for example, such things as removing / changing the product key, performing online activation or extending the activation time. It's not as easy as simple activationwhich is executed standard means OS with convenient graphical interfacebut not that difficult either. In this article I will give you information on how and with what help you can do this.
There is a command line tool called Slmgr.vbs that is included with Windows and provides features that are not available in the standard activation interface found in the Update and Security window, which you can reach by opening the Start menu and choosing Settings.
First: open a command prompt with administrator rights
This is required to use Slmgr.vbs. In Windows 10 or 8, click right click mouse on the Start button (or the keyboard shortcut Win + X) and select "Command line (administrator)". In Windows 7, find command line in the Start menu, in the All Programs\u003e System Tools list. Right click on it and select "Run as administrator".
Viewing Activation / License Information
To display basic license and activation information, run the command below which will tell you which one you have. windows version, part of the product key for you to identify and will show you if the system is activated.
To get more detailed information For license details, including activation ID, installation ID, and other details, enter the following command:
Viewing the license expiration date
To find out the period of the current system activation, use the command below. Since retail licenses for, say, home computers are activated on a perpetual basis and will never expire, the command will be useful for commercial KMS organizations and servers. However, you can check the expiration date of your license and make sure it is permanent.
How to remove a product key
You can also remove the product key of the current Windows system using Slmgr.vbs. After running the command below, restart your computer and your operating system will not have a product key, which means Windows will become inactive - without a license.
This allows you to transfer the license to another computer, if necessary. For example, if you want to donate old computer friend, but want to keep the license for yourself. However, as you know, Windows activation will be "tied" to the hardware of the computer on which it is installed, so you won't be able to transfer it just like that, but it's still possible, but that's not about that now (this will be in the next articles).
To remove the license key, enter the following command at the command prompt:
However, the command does not completely remove the activation. Windows also stores the product key in the registry because it is sometimes necessary during computer settings and to prevent key theft malwarethat can access the registry. In addition, the future owner of the computer (if he is more or less versed in computers) can easily remove the key from the registry, so you must also delete it from the registry with the following command:
How to install or change a product key
With slmgr.vbs you can enter new key product. If the Windows system is already activated, using the command below you can replace the old key with a new valid one (instead of ##### - ##### - ##### - ##### - ##### enter a new one key). After that it is recommended to restart your computer.
You can also do this in the activation settings screen in the computer settings, but the following command allows you to do this from the command line:
slmgr.vbs / ipk ##### - ##### - ##### - ##### - #####
Windows activation
Windows activation online
With the next command, you can try to activate Windows via the Internet.
Windows offline activation
To get the installation ID (ID) for offline activation, run the following command:
Now you need to receive a confirmation code for activating the system by phone. Go to the official Microsoft Windows Activation Help page. According to the instructions given, call the Microsoft Product Activation Center (there is nothing wrong with that, you will follow the instructions of the robot) and provide the installation ID obtained above and you will receive an activation code (in case everything is successfully confirmed). It can help you activate Windows system without internet connection.
Replace ACTIVATIONID with your Activation ID. which you got:
slmgr.vbs / atp ACTIVATIONID
After that, to make sure your OS is activated, you can use the following commands:
slmgr.vbs / dli or slmgr.vbs / dlv
How to renew activation
Take to example Windows 7, which has a 30-day trial period before it starts asking you for a product key. You can extend the trial period, i.e. reset this trial period back to 30 days by running the command below.
slmgr.vbs / Rearm
However, you will not be able to extend the trial period over and over and over indefinitely - the command can only be used a few times. If you want to know how many times, enter the slmgr.vbs / dlv command. I don’t remember exactly, but for each version, it seems, its “number of times”. In Windows 7, if I'm not mistaken 3 times, and 5 times on Windows Server 2008 R2. With the exception of Windows 10, the option works in all earlier versions.
Using Slmgr.vbs for Remote Computers
Usually Slmgr runs on the current computer, however you have the ability to remotely administer computers on the network if you have access to them. For example, the first command below applies to the current computer and the second one applies to remote computer... You just need to know the Computer name, username and password.
slmgr.vbs / option
slmgr.vbs computername username password / option
Other commands related to system activation can be used with the Slmgr.vbs command. See Slmgr.vbs Options for more details.
