Win 7 Enterprise p2v (physical to virtual)
Posted: 22. Apr 2014, 17:52
Using Disk2vhd I made an image .vhd of my actual OS win7 64bit Enterprise on the network.
Then I convert it to a .vdi image with : VBoxManage clonehd source.vhd target.vdi --format vdi
It was long but successful.
I created a new virtual machine, I started it, changed it's name, restarted it.
It's all great EXCEPT the activation is lost, Is there a way to get my actual OS activation to keep it to the VM ?
Tools like "Advanced Tokens Manager" or "7tokens manager" don't work...
I guess it's because it must be a volume licence, I am not administator of the firm, just of my computer...
Is there any way between the regedit and/or some key file that I could activate my VM (I don't have access to Internet with my computer, I must go through others) ?
As anybody ever tried something like that (Enterprise licence) ?
