    Activation diagnostic tool


    I'm resurrecting WDT for Win 10, it's been quite useful at Eightforums - but Win 10, especially with digital entitlement, has different needs.

    I uploaded a beta at github for those that would like to test and give feedback in terms of what is required etc. The thing at EF was I was one of few interpreting the diagnostic report, so making the report itself more user friendly is one of the main things we need to sort out.
    The current report is almost verbatim what Windows' licensingdiag.exe utility produces.

    NB Office is phase 2 so that will not be a priority right now.

    Releases · Superfly-Inc/Windows-Diagnostic-Tool · GitHub

    PS It also needs a new name.

    NB: It may hang on first use - if so close and restart... it's a known bug.

    Looks good, activation details are correct, but the links lead to a message saying
    Attachment 85257

    Before the tool loads I see this message
    Attachment 85258

    Is this suppose to happen?

    Yes the first is by design - it's an MS pop-up to alert of an activation "error"...
    Windows "proper" does not understand digital entitlement and will report an error if it is not legacy compliant - however the Windows error handling has been updated to report digital entitlement via a certain error code.
    Clicking "See details" (which is what we are after)...if it says store licence, it's digital entitlement.

    The second is my fault - generic exception stuff..just habit to prevent apps crashing... not good for beta developing though - I'll remove that - thanx for testing

    Seems to work perfectly, even showing the digital entitlement.

    EDIT: Ah OK, now I understood: clicking the Digital Entitlement link gives the error message. Not a big issue there.

    Of course you know what I test first, right Craig?

    Looks good Cliff, but this is more MS' intellectual logic than mine, thus perhaps leave Superfly out of the name?

    Thanx for the suggestion though.

    (PS: Happy it sits well with your themes as well )

    Windows look OK. Office 14 gives a couple of pop-ups and then just the PID not the Key:
