Ohook:
- Reverted the Ohook version back to 0.3. We noticed some Antivirus detections (false positive), possibly due to the registry adding change introduced in 0.4. The downside of 0.3 is that the Ohook script would need to be run again upon new user account creation in Windows if O365 is installed.

HWID/KMS38:
- HWID activation is added for IotEnterpriseS 2024. At the moment, the 2024 version of IotEnterpriseS and IotEnterpriseSK have HWID activation, EnterpriseS/SN don't
- More checks are added to find better error details for:
Internet issue
WMI issue
SvcRestartTask issue
Services issue - Some codes are optimized
Online KMS:
- Script will create schduled task files in
C:\Program Files\Activation-Renewal
instead ofC:\ProgramData\Activation-Renewal
due to security reasons - The script is updated as per @abbodi1406 KVA v50. Changes:
- Fixed conversion for Office 2016 C2R Retail
previously, the first run mistakenly said conversion had failed, even though it was successful (due to confusion with Office 2019 licenses/location detection) - Added support for activating Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 (LCU 19044.2788 or later)
- Fixed conversion for Office 2016 C2R Retail
Change Windows Edition:
- Script will use @ave9858 (Alex) DISM API method instead of changepk.exe method to change from Windows 10/11 Core to Non-core (e.g. Home to Pro)
Advantages: Internet doesn't need to be disabled, all OEM/GVLK key restrictions are removed, and better error output - Script will only use best methods to change edition instead of showing multiple choices
Troubleshoot:
- Script will compress large log files to cab instead of deleting and creating them fresh in DISM restore and SFC scan options
- WMI fix is improved
All:
- Insert HWID key script is removed because it's not important and causes confusion
- Scripts will now disable quick edit mode temporarily because users often click inside the script window and it pauses the script
- Check is added for Null service at the start of the script because corrupt service crashes the script
- Codes are optimized and fixed a few bugs
- Gitlab repo was taken down, we have created a repo on Bitbucket as a replacement. Also revived the Subreddit.
