[QUOTE="Superfly, post: 464254, member: 25643"] Yes you are licenced but illegally: Windows 8.1 Core M9Q9P-XXXXX-6PXPY-XXXXX-6XWKK (Note: Key masked as it is not published by [URL="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj612867.aspx"]Microsoft publicly[/URL] - as Core is not a VL edition.) Volume licences are for large organisations whereby a common installation key is provided my MS per edition and that organisation has paid for a KMS server key with which to activate those installation via their network at certain intervals. - the activation you have uses an exploit to mimic that server activation - furthermore Windows Core edition is not distributed as a volume licence edition and can not be legally activated in this way. Thus you need to uninstall any KMS-related software as well as the key and enter a genuine key for activation.
