    Hi,

    We are currently using Intune Licenses for Windows 7 however we a are switching to a different AV provider.  We will need to change the product key on 120+ domain workstations to a new VL key.  Is there a way we can automate this process an deploy to all workstations?

    If you can find a manual non-GUI way of changing the licences (e.g. with a registry hack) then it could probably be automated. Just post the details in your reply.

    May be you need a script or a bat file to change product key:

    slmgr.vbs -ipk YOUR PRODUCT KEY

    Or KMS may helpful to you:

    Hi Leo,

    Thanks for your reply as it's pointed me in the right direction.  I ran slmgr.vbs -ipk xxxxxxxxxx  /ato and although it successully installs the key it doesn't activate the product. 

    I've just stumbled across this http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=11936 and it seems like it's doing the job.   Have you used this in the past?
