HP Recommended
Product: T620
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

We have multiple thin clients model t620 OS: Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB ,  Image Version: 14WWFTDJ601#SABA#DAus.

When we re-image client, windows license status shows windows is in notification mode instead of licensed, our environment dont have public network access.

I know we can do it via Windows activation offline and it works but my question is when we again re-image the client then again need to activate windows ? What i did is, open Microsoft activation link, enter installation id from client,. then Enter the confirmation ID number given by  activation web link, enter confirmation ID into client and click Activate Windows then will be windows activated.

If we create after 6 months some new image for client, should again need to activate windows one by one  ?

 

Its OEM type OS and product key is embedded in the system and we can install image multiple times.

Is there any smart way to activate windows in thin-client environment ?

 

Thanks in advance.
