Hi,
Is there a way to activate windows 7 remotely. And by remotely I do not mean taking remote desktop and activating it.
I did try connecting to remote system via psexec (PS Tools) and then executing command: slmgr /ipk <product key> but it did not work. i guess it only places the product key in remote system but you still have to go physically to the remote system, go to computer properties and click on 'activate windows'. (i tried this long time back so not entirely sure).
any better ideas?
