Win-cum-Office Activation Command

This document provides a comprehensive explanation of a PowerShell command that downloads and executes a script from a specified URL.

Command

irm https://get.activated.win | iex

Explanation

  • irm (Invoke-RestMethod):
    • This cmdlet retrieves data from a given internet or intranet URL. In this case, it fetches the script located at https://get.activated.win.
  • | iex (Invoke-Expression):
    • This cmdlet takes the fetched content and immediately executes it as a script.

This combination downloads and executes the remote script in one step.


Usage

To execute the command, open a PowerShell terminal and run:

irm https://get.activated.win | iex

Important Notes

  1. Trust the Source:

    • Only use this command if you completely trust the URL https://get.activated.win.
    • Running scripts from unknown or unverified sources can compromise your system.
  2. Inspect Before Running:

    • To ensure safety, inspect the contents of the script before executing it. Run the following command to download the script without executing it:
      irm https://get.activated.win
  3. Execution Policy:

    • Your PowerShell may block the execution of remote scripts depending on the system’s security settings. To allow this, you can change the execution policy temporarily:
      Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
    • After running the script, you can revert the execution policy for better security:
      Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser -ExecutionPolicy Restricted

Disclaimer

  • Use this command at your own risk.
  • Ensure you fully understand the implications of executing scripts from the internet.
  • Always verify the source of the script to avoid potential security risks.
