Delay Windows Vista Product Activation
Submitted by oyahadmin on Fri, 02/01/2008 - 00:03.
SkipRearm specifies whether to run the Windows Software Licensing Rearm program.
Rearming a computer restores the Windows system to the original licensing state. All licensing and registry data related to activation is either removed or reset. Any grace period timers are reset as well.
Values
0 Specifies that the computer will be rearmed, restoring the computer to the original, out-of-box state. All activation-related licensing and registry data is removed or reset, and any grace period timers are also reset. This is the default value.
1 Specifies that the computer will not be rearmed and the computer will not be restored to its original, out-of-box state. All activation-related licensing and registry data will remain and will not be reset. Similarly, any grace period timers will not be reset

Is SkipRearm a Command?
Is SkipRearm a command run on the command line, with administrator privileges?
Would this be run as the following:
>SkipRearm 0
?

Is SkipRearm a Command?
One only has to change the SkipReam registry subkey to 1. You can find this key here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurentVersion\SL
Then, you run slmgr –rearm on a command prompt with administrator privileges before the grace period is over. This will give you another grace period of one month. This can be done for an indefinite number of times if SKipRearm is set to 1.
