Server 2022 KMS host key bug; Can't activate Win10 Enterprise LTSB/LTSC
Hello Ryan, I do not believe there is a functional relation between KMS and the Forest or Domain Functional level. Do you have found anything in docs.microsoft.com stating this relation?
Do I understand correctly that ADBA is not working for you either?
ajc196 is your issue as posted in the OP fixed by today, if yes do you know how? Sorry this topic is quite long.

Deleted Who knows.
the upcoming Windows ADK for Windows Server, version 23H2 (build 25398) is around the corner, we shall see

thank you abbodi1406 for confirming this once again.
So there is no hope this will be fixed in VAMT (as part of ADK) in the future?
- ajc196Aug 16, 2023Iron ContributorSorry, I'm unaware about that particular item.

Deleted That's ADK restriction / design
OS updates don't fix or changed it

Cheers ajc196 for the update on this update #punintended.
do you know if this said KB also fixed the issue that ADK may not import WS 2022 and / or WS 2019 GVLK into VAMT? Depending the version of ADK you could only import WS 2019 or 2022 keys, which led me to create a DB as template for customers.

Wondering if there was ever a solution to getting 2022 to activate?

Deleted I installed the latest version of VAMT, just to test. Same exact error on 2019 LTSC. We're rolling out 2022 soon-ish, so I suppose I can just wait until then. Just frustrating, as we've all experienced.

ajc196 cheers!
SaintFrag afaik it is only important to use the latest VAMT which is currently part Windows 11 22H2 ADK.
The used KMS key in VAMT needs to match the latest OS you are going to activate.
Means KMS Key provided via ADBA for WS 2022 will activate WS2022 and earlier (down to WS2012).
