Looks interesting, but I'm leery of using a "crack" program which
Microsoft may work around at some point. (I explained to my friend who
is elderly and doesn't really understand any of this that he needs
permission from Microsoft to use his computer.)

I just spent a fruitless hour or so with Microsoft "Support" which
was about as useful and painless as dropping the computer on my toe.
This is an old computer so I'll probably just put it back to its original
Windows 7, there's still about a year of support left in that puppy and
by that time the PC may be replaced.

Unfortunately the owner uses some Windows-based programs and I don't want
him (or me supporting him) having to deal with Wine or virtual machines,
so Linux is not an option in his case. I guess that's the only reason
people put up with this kind of crap. You wouldn't put up with such an
inconvenience for a damned $20 toaster, but people have to deal with it
on their much more expensive PCs.
