Windows XP Professional Beta 2 Administrative Features Preview

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 04/16/2001 10:49 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

ActiveWin has posted a preview on the Administrative Features of Windows XP Professional Beta 2.




Let’s talk about a little thing called “Product Activation.” A LOT of people have been complaining about it. This is a feature that Microsoft has put in Windows XP that forces a user to log in to Microsoft and Register their copy of Windows XP. Most administrators have complained about this because they say that they do not want to have to “run around to every computer that gets installed and register it.” Well, don’t worry. You have 14 Days to activate your version of Windows. (30 in the final release) Are you still upset? Don’t worry about it. Microsoft has provided two entries that can be added to an unattended text file, or SIF file in RIS, that will enable you to not have to deal with this at all.
