Expired Windows Server 2008 trial remote activation
- by Garry Harthill
I have a remote server which has an expired license. I can't currently add the new license because of a licensing server error so I need to reboot the machine.
My question is will I be able to remote desktop onto the machine and apply the new license or do I have to be physically at the server. I know an activation wizard usually appears and doesn't let you go any further but does this same wizard appear over remote desktop?
I don't really want to reboot the machine only for it to not come up again.
