Hi brink
thanks!
I did that, but it still shows 13 days left for activation! The activation
period is not updated after restart!

Hermanth,

You might try again to see if you might have overlooked something. If you already did this 3 times before, it will not work anymore.

If you are just having problems getting Vista activated, then you will probably need to do a Phone Activation to do it. This will show you how.

Activate Vista by Phone

Re: extend the activation period - 30days

Hi

this is for the first time, that I am running 'slmgr -rearm'; and I even get
a prompt to restart the system for the changes to take effect! I ran it only
once.

But on restart, the activation period is not updated!

Hemanth,

I am not sure why it would not work now. Perhaps Microsoft may have cut off this option by them with some update. I have not seen any problem reports about this at all the other sites yet either. I'll keep a eye out on this and will update the tutorial if I find anything. It appears that the only option for now is to activate your Vista.
