Activating your windows8 for free
Microsoft’s giveaway of a free Windows Media Center upgrade may have a curious side effect: allowing pirates to pick up a free copy of Windows 8 Pro direct from Microsoft itself.
The Media Center upgrade, which Microsoft is offering through January 31, 2013, includes Microsoft’s tools for watching and recording live TV. However, applying the upgrade has an unintended side effect: It permanently activates the copy of Windows 8 that you’ve applied it to.
That provides a neat workaround for pirates who exploit a weakness in Microsoft’s Key Management Service (KMS) to get temporary access to copies of Windows 8. Normally, KMS provides a way for corporate IT people to activate copies of Windows on a local network without having to make each PC contact Microsoft directly for authentication during the install process, but it has also given rise to pirate KMS servers, which hand out activation keys over the Internet. With KMS, you need to re-activate Windows every 180 days, making this sort of piracy rather limited in effectiveness.
However, the Media Center upgrade reportedly works even on KMS-authorized installations of Windows, turning KMS-hacked PCs into permanently-authenticated copies of Windows.

4. Once it's done, a folder named “Windows Activation Backup” will appear in the same folder that you launched the tool from, it contains the backup (DO NOT MODIFY ANYTHING INSIDE!
5. * OPTIONAL: Now that you have your own backup, it's recommended to place* it in safe storage media to prevent any accidental deletion/damage
(*move the folder containing both tool and backup somewhere safe)
HOW TO RESTORE WINDOWS ACTIVATION IN CASE U FORMAT OR RE-INSTALL UR WINDOWS
1. Run Advanced token manager
2. Click on "Activation Restore" button
3. Confirm to start restoration
it'll take 1~5 minutes, network connection will be disabled while restoring

Now refresh your desktop, i bet the watermark has vanished ! BUT it's always better to check activation status in System Properties, or by running slmgr.vbs -xpr in Command Prompt.
-> [UPDATE] BACKUP/RESTORE ACTIVATION FOR WINDOWS 8 PRO WITH MEDIA CENTER:
BACKUP: In case you upgraded using the WMC key from MS offer, making backup of the activation is the same as described above.
RESTORE: After a fresh install of Windows 8 Pro*, get activated first then add WMC with the same key from the offer, system will reboot, after that launch Advanced Tokens Manager and restore the activation: first try may fail, try again and it will restore successfully.
