Product Activation
  • Product Activation is the process of getting the
    product key for your specific combination of
    hardware and software
  • Activation exists on OEM and FPP
  • OEM licences are typically pre-activated for the
    customer by the OEM/system builder
  • See http//www.microsoft.com/piracy/basics/activat
    ion/

3
Which Products are affected?
  • Microsoft Office 2003 products (Word 2003,
    Excel 2003, etc.)
  • Microsoft Windows Server 2003
  • Microsoft Windows XP Professional and Home
    Edition

Volume Licensing Activation
  • Use Volume Licence Key (VLK)
  • https//eopen.microsoft.com/
  • https//licensing.microsoft.com/eLicense/

Product Activation Misconceptions
  • You must activate your software immediately
  • Operating systems require activation after 30
    days
  • Office products require activation after 50
    launches and will then behave like a file viewer
  • You can only activate your software once
  • A second activation is necessary to enable
    portable use rights
  • Reactivation is allowed for reinstallation
  • Reactivation may be required after a hardware
    configuration change

Product Use Rights contd
  • The product user rights are part of the Microsoft
    licence agreements, i.e. the right to use the
    software, additional rights and limitations
  • Different product user rights for
  • applications
  • operating systems
  • server products
  • developer tools

Transferring Licences
  • A company may transfer a licence to another PC or
    User Within their Organisation (providing it was
    acquired through FPP or Volume licensing)
  • A company may make a one time permanent transfer
    a licence to a third party (providing it was
    acquired through FPP or OEM)
  • The following must also be transferred with the
    software
  • Original licence and any upgrade licence
    confirmations
  • End User Licence Agreement (EULA)
  • Certificate of Authenticity (COA)
  • Microsoft Licences may not be rented, loaned,
    leased, or used for commercial hosting except
    through the Service Provider Licence Agreement
    (SPLA)
