Hello,

What is the difference between RTM and KMS?

RTM = Released To Manufacturing. It is the retail (or OEM) product key that home users use to activate personal copies of Windows with. In Windows 10/11, a RTM product key will result in a digital license which permanently activates Windows 10/11 on that computer. Note: in order to activate Windows 10/11 with the generic product key, there must be a digital license for Windows 10/11 created for that edition of Windows 10/11 saved on Microsoft activation servers for that specific computer.

KMS = Key Management Service. These are product keys that corporations use to activate their volume licensed software using their own activation servers. Activation via KMS is not permanent. The computer must contact the company's KMS server periodically to refresh activation, otherwise the activation will expire.

Thank you so much for this! It was really helpful. I upgraded from my pre-installed Home edition to Pro. As a developer, the Home edition just doesn't meet my needs. Thanks again!

Anyone can install Windows without a key. I do it as a VM. You just won't be able to personalize it. It will also be inactivated. How does a generic key differ from this?

Yeah, but this is for those that want legitimacy and peace of mind. That's how they "differ"
In addition, a generic key can allow you to upgrade to another edition. For example: Home to Pro.

Just to point out, a generic key will never activate.

I have a laptop that originally came with Windows 11 Home pre-installed and activated. Recently, I’ve been considering upgrading to Windows 11 Pro using the RTM generic key to explore some of the Pro features. However, I’m concerned about the process of reverting back to Windows 11 Home in case I decide that the Pro version isn't necessary for my needs or if any issues arise after the upgrade.

how can I revert back to Windows 11 Home afterwards?

Yes, you can do that. You must disconnect from the internet, so Windows cannot check the key and block the change. Then enter the generic key for Windows 10/11 Home YTMG3-N6DKC-DKB77-7M9GH-8HVX7. I am not sure if this works from Settings -> System -> Activation then Change your Windows key. If it doesn't you can open Command Prompt or Powershell (Windows Terminal) as Administrator and run this command to change the Windows key:

slmgr.vbs /ipk YTMG3-N6DKC-DKB77-7M9GH-8HVX7

Once you have successfully changed the Windows key, connect to the internet to automatically activate again.

No need to reinstall just to downgrade from Pro to Home. Disconnect from the internet, change the Windows key with the generic Windows 10/11 Home key, connect again to activate. I once had upgraded from Windows 11 Pro to Windows 11 Pro for Workstations (without activating) just to see if there is any difference in performance. I then changed the Windows key with the generic Windows 10/11 Pro key to go back to Windows 11 Pro. Windows activated again automatically once back online. Piece of cake.

Day one I got a working key from Krbkeys. Lets see for how many days it will work.

Followed your steps and upgraded my pc from Windows 11 Home to Pro. I applied my purchased Windows 11 Pro Retail Key, and everything's working perfectly. Thanks!

does not seem to work; using a VM to install w11 pro and the official MS USB tool to create the installer. Are the keys working only with the CD version of the installer?

I was a little skeptical at first, but buying a Windows 11 key from https://softwarecaster.com turned out to be a great choice. The key was delivered super fast, activation was smooth, and everything worked on the first try. Plus, the 40% discount was a huge bonus. I’ve already shared the site with friends!
