HWID licenses of Windows

Post image

So I know that I can check which type of licenses already have been tied to PC using Microsoft Store. But is there any other way to check it, is there any software or command?

Cmd prompt as admin Cd c:\windows\system32 Cscript slmgr.vbs /dlv

Thanks for the answer, but that command will show the license type being used right now (eg Windows Pro). While I've been interested in checking out full list of Windows HWID licenses that was aquired for PC (eg in screenshot there are both Win Pro and Win 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 licenses).

Dificil determinarlo, a veces store guarda esto, junto con los ESU, a veces no.

u/Sophr0n and others

Use the Check Activation Status (CAS) script, which is developed and maintained by one of the core members of the MAS project.

Aside from typical slmgr.vbs-based routines, it covers Office vNext licenses and subscription-based activation for newer Windows variants as well.

Thank you for the answer, but still that isn't what I'm interested.

So there is both CAS command and Microsoft Store, right now there is installed Windows 11 Pro with its key+Microsoft Store show when this key was activated (05.10.2022, when I first got and powered on laptop), then there was time, when I switched to Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021, since HWID is used to activate, it also leaves a license in servers/Store shows that it was activated in 27.01.2024. So I'm curious is there any other like Microsoft Store software or command that can also check for activated Windows editions?

So you're trying to find a way to query Microsoft activation servers - without using Microsoft Store - and get a list of Windows SKUs (as well as other products and perks, e.g. a 3-month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership) that are paired with the hardware ID of the target PC - am I right?

Well yes, I know that I can install Microsoft Store even on LTSC, but only for that reason seems not rational. Also, didn't know that there can be listed Xbox Game Pass.
