I have questions :

  1. It's show MAX Activations Used/Available with value = 1/50 is it means i have activated 1 time with the product key and i have 49 more ?

  2. Whats is different between product keys and Licenses ? in Product Key tab its show me more than 1 OS but in licenses tab only show windows 8, like this : second image

*sorry for my bad english..

1: yes, it means 1 of 50 activations was done.

2: License: Legal construct. Key: Physical code to activate. A key can be tied to a licence that allows 100 activations or more.

Generally: Do not go where you are now - check your paperwork. It is irrelevant how many activations you have - you must know the license under the keys. It may well be the licenses are limited. Check your paperwork.

  • Ok thanks for ur help, 1 more question, in this statment "... its irrelevant how many activations u have ..." do u mean : maybe i have activate a key more than 1 times ? and maybe i only have 1 of 1 activation not 1 of 50 ? – Mr.EchoAnd Aug 22 '16 at 09:08
  • No. It means MS may give you 200 activations though your paperwork only allows 150 because activations may get lost and this is easier to handle for them. – TomTom Aug 22 '16 at 09:29
