What if Win8.1 can't activate?

Many computer users will look for the Win8.1 system's product key to activate the system, but what if you encounter a product key that cannot be activated and the activation fails? Many computer users will think that the product key has been invalidated, can only find a new product key, but it is not, Perhaps the Win8.1 server may not be able to be accessed by some users, and users who cannot activate can be activated by modifying DNS to 8.8.4.4 (or 8.8.8.8).

Win8.1 cannot be activated

First of all, the Win8.1 preview version of the activation code is completely free, and the global universal.

Win8.1 official Activation code has and only one: nttx3-rv7vb-t7x7f-wqyyy-9y92f

If you copy and paste the Win8.1 activation code more than 10 times and cannot complete activation, that can be activated by modifying DNS to 8.8.4.4来.

The method for modifying DNS is as follows:

Right-click on the desktop in the lower right corner of the "network"-"open Network and Sharing Center"-"Ethernet"-Attribute--internet protocol version (TCP/IPV4)--dns.

Internet Protocol version Internet Protocol version

Right-click on the bottom right corner of the desktop "network"-"open Network and Sharing Center"-"Ethernet"

Attribute--internet Protocol version (TCP/IPV4)

Modify DNS

Finally try again Win8.1 activation, this time should be successful.

Win8.1 activation

Why is it possible to modify DNS to succeed?

Some netizens said that can not activate Win8.1 is because the network operators hijacked Microsoft Win8.1 Server (not all regions are hijacked), and 8.8.4.4 is Google's DNS services, users once assigned a DNS address, the network operators can not hijack, will be able to activate smoothly.

Small series has also tried to activate the Win8.1, but basically try several times to activate.

Note: If DNS is modified to 8.8.4.4, some domestic web sites may be slow to access, so you can automatically obtain DNS addresses instead (but you may see AD information for network operators).
