KMS on Windows Server 2016
Hi,
I have a issue while configuring KMS on Windows Server 2016 on GUI, it crashes. After going through some of the blogs now able to activate KMS host via CMD and KMS clients are able to activate automatically but I am unable to open volume activation services console to see the reports.
I have attached an error details.

VAMT is a tool which connects to KMS by discovering it, you should be able to use it straight away and use if for reporting
