This tweak will allow you to extend the activation deadline of Vista for at least a year in just 7 easy steps. For those who are unfamiliar with the slmgr -rearm techinque, this basically allows you to run a command in command prompt that allows you extend the 30-days grace period indefinetely.
In short, this is how you can use Vista legally for at least a year without activating:
1) First, we will use the well known slmgr -rearm method. When you have 1 day remaining to activiate, Click on the Start Pearl and access command prompt by typing cmd in the Search bar. Make sure to press Ctrl + Alt + Enter to access it in Administratve mode.
