Windows Server follows a similar activation mechanism to Windows Vista. However, with Windows Server activation, a Key Management Service is not provided. All activations are done via Multiple Activation Key (MAK).

Either the Simple Activator or the Core Activator can be used to activate Windows Server.

Please visit the Windows Server Activator page for more information.
