The Ultimate KMS Reference Guide

Since Microsoft likes to put all of the KMS client keys and command line tools in 37 different places and change the links around AND call them two different things (KMS client keys and Generic Volume License Keys), I’ve decided to put all of that together into a single page – more for my reference, but I’ll share.

<update April 2019> Since there are so many more editions with different KMS keys, it may be better to refer to the actual Microsoft support documents (linked below)
