#WINDOWS 10 RESET REARM COUNT HOW TO#
So, let's start… How to SYSPREP (ReArm)Windows more than three (3) times (Windows 10, 8, 7 or VIsta). The normal ways (according to Microsoft) to bypass Sysprep's 3 times limit, is to create the Windows image from scratch or to capture an image from the machine before running sysprep (for first time) and when you reach the three (3) times rearm limit, you will deploy the captured image.įortunately there is another easy method to bypass Sysprep's three (3) times limit and to run Sysprep as many times you want on the same machine. If you able to run Sysprep with no limits, you should run Windows forever without any activation. The three (3) times rearm (sysprep) limitation is applied because when you run sysprep, you reset the period (limit) of 30 days to activate your Windows copy. dwRet = –1073425657Įrror SYSPRP WinMain:Hit failure while processing sysprep generalize internal providers hr = 0xc004d307" "Error SYSPRP LaunchDll: Failure occurred while executing 'C:\Windows\System32\slc.dll, SLReArmWindows', returned error code -1073425657Įrror SYSPRP RunExternalDlls: An error occurred while running registry sysprep DLLs, halting sysprep execution.
