Activate Windows 7 Pro with MAK Key via SCCM 2012 task sequence

Objective: Whenever a Windows 7 Pro computer is deployed via SCCM 2012 task sequence, I would want Windows to be auto activated.

Solution: 1. In SCCM 2012 console => Task Sequences=> edit task sequence => apply windows settings => product key: type in Windows 7 Pro MAK key here  (if you don't have MAK key get one),

2. add run command line => command line: cscript.exe c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato

3. start in:  c:\windows\system32

Note: Make sure when you add the Run Command Line, place it at the bottom of the list or at least right after "Setup Windows and Configuration"  .....This solution worked for me and I hope it will for you too!



then windows is auto activated once deployed.
