But it still is upto Microsoft to enable it. All software activation that need server contact to install and use means that you don’t own the software. You see it in the gaming industry that almost all the games in the early millenium years are non installable anymore and worthless - at least at this time they still had nice boxes you can now put on your shelf.
Unfortunately i’ve never seen this activation question answered on the website.
And back to the topic. I really think that software vendors need to offer a “next major release OR next 3 years” updates included. Because i see updates more like a warranty and everything below 2 years is a disgrace and greedy rip-off because 2 years is already mandatory by law on every physical product in the EU.
