Some of you might be running into activation messages, like “You must activate Windows today” or your virtual machine will be rebooting every 2 hours.
You can use Windows 7 without activation by the following trick. Most of you might be aware of the fact that it is possible to use Windows 7 and Vista for 120 days without activation. This is actually possible using the slmgr -rearm command which will extend the grace period from 30 days to 120 days. However in this post I will show you a small trick using which it is possible to use Windows 7 without activation for approximately an year! Here is a way to do that.
Step 2 : Right click on “Command Prompt” and select “Run as Administrator“.
Step 3 : Enter your administrator password.
Step 4 : Now type the following command and hit enter.
slmgr -rearm (Note the space after slmgr and the hyphen)
Step 5 : Now restart the computer.
Step 6 : Once restarted the trial period will be once again reset to 30 days.
Check this in system properties.
Step 6 : Once restarted the trial period will be once again reset to 30 days.
Check this in system properties.
You can use slmgr -rearm command for up to 3 times by which you can extend the trial period to 120 days without activation. Now comes the actual trick by which you can extend the trial period for another 240 days.

Step 7 : Open RegistryEditor (Start>Run>Type regedit >Ok) & navigate to following.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
Step 8 : In right-side pane, change value of SkipRearm to 1. Now you will be able to use the slmgr -rearm command for another 8 times. And you will get 120 + 240 = 360 days of free Windows 7 usage.
120 days using “slmgr -rearm” command (before registry edit)
+ 240 days using “slmgr -rearm” command (after registry edit) = 360 Days.
+ 240 days using “slmgr -rearm” command (after registry edit) = 360 Days.
