Extend Windows 7 & Windows 2008 Grace Period.
2010 January 4
On Installation Windows 7 requires licence activation. By default the grace period to do this is 30 days.
If for legitimate reasons this needs to be extended, it is possible to reset this a maximum of 3 times. Resulting in a total 120 days grace period.
This option is activated by running a command prompt session in administrator mode and entering the following;
slmgr.vbs -rearm
A message box will be displayed and the machine will need to be restarted.
This is a Microsoft supported option, and does not violate the EULA
This also applies to windows vista.
