How to Activate Windows with SLUI.exe

0
0

There are times when the Windows activation may not work correctly, or times when you may want to change your product key.  When this happens, there may not be an obvious way to get your copy of Windows to activate correctly.  Fortunately Microsoft has provided an easy way to achieve this using the SLUI.exe command, which stands for SOFTWARE LICENSING USER INTERFACE.  By clicking on Start, then Run, you will then be able to type in one of the following commands:

  • SLUI 1 - (Brings up the activation status window)
  • SLUI 2 - (Brings up the activation window)
  • SLUI 3 - (Brings up the Change Product Key window)
  • SLUI 4 - (Brings up the Call Microsoft & Manually Activate window)

This feature was initially added in Windows Vista and had continually been available in each subsequent operating system since.  This option may not always fix your specific issue and a valid Windows COA is required to activate Windows.
