Hello everyone,
I have windows server 2012 host with a 2016 Evaluation guest that has been over
By trying to enter a license key with:
slmgr /ipk xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx
i'm getting an error:
Error: 0xC004F069 On a computer running Microsoft Windows non-core edition, run 'slui.exe 0x2a 0xC004F069' to display the error text
If i do:
dism /online /Get-TargetEditions
Editions that can be upgraded to:
Target Edition : ServerStandard
Target Edition : ServerDatacenter
then i do:
dism /online /Set-Edition:ServerStandard /ProductKey:xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx /AcceptEULA
the process stuck for while on:
Removing package Microsoft-Windows-ServerStandardEvalEdition~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.14393.0
[===== 10.0%
]
until the virtual machine is going shutdown in an hour because of evaluation period been over
By trying to extend an evaluation period:
Error: 0xC004FE00 On a computer running Microsoft Windows non-core edition, run 'slui.exe 0x2a 0xC004FE00' to display the error text
Kindly suggest the right way to activate a guest system
Thank you
