What causes the error when activating Windows 10 with a script?
Asked by

I tried to activate Windows 10 using the command "irm https://get.activated.win | iex" but ran into an error. The error message states: 'The remote name could not be resolved: 'get.activated.win''. I'm looking for help to understand why this error occurred and how I can fix it.

Just a heads up, discussing ways to activate Windows can draw some attention in the wrong way. It's usually better to stick to official methods to avoid issues!

It seems like there might be a client-side or networking issue causing the error. Check your internet connection or any firewall settings that might be blocking access to that URL.
TechyNinja93: Thanks for the tip! I'll look into my network settings.
