Bypassing KMS license activation performed by View Composer on Windows 7 and Windows Vista operating systems.
Details
QuickPrep does not use other volume activation methods such as Multiple Activation Key (MAK) licensing.
CAUTION: View Composer does not support MAK license activation. Use MAK license activation at your own risk. For example, each recompose operation can increase the MAK license count, which can result in the unexpected depletion of MAK licenses.
Solution
To enable QuickPrep to activate licenses for MAK clients:
1. In the guest operating system on the parent virtual machine, start the Windows Registry Editor and navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\vmware-viewcomposer-ga
2. Navigate to the AllowActivateMAKLicense registry value. The default value is 0.
3. Set the value to 1.
To bypass license activation altogether:
1. In the guest operating system on the parent virtual machine, start the Windows Registry Editor and navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\vmware-viewcomposer-ga
2. Navigate to the SkipLicenseActivation registry value. The default value is 0.
3. Set the value to 1.
