How to remove KMS key (Windows/Office)

Hi you

If you used the KMS key to activate Windows or Office, it can prevent the product key you buy to activate your Windows/Office. KMS key sends the product key to the KMS servers, not the Microsoft servers.

So when you paste the key you buy from me, it can’t activate your Windows/Office. You will see the notification “Ensure you are connected to your corporate network to enable automatic activation”

(KMS key is key used for organization)
