I purchased a budget laptop for a family member to stay connected during the pandemic. I was just testing it to make sure everything was functioning properly and ran a Windows Defender scan, which detected a hack tool called AutoKMS. This indicated that the Windows copy wasn’t legitimate. I asked the seller about the program used and couldn’t find any mention of KMSpico. When I inquired, he explained that he uses KMS commands in CMD to activate Windows. I’m wondering whether using those commands in the command prompt will still trigger an AutoKMS detection on the system.

I've never come across activating Windows via CMD. It seems he probably uses CMD to run commands for the hacktool. The correct method is through Settings.

Autokms is a tool for updating Windows and Microsoft Office. I’ve tried it for testing purposes only. If you need it removed, you can download the Autokms executable and delete the patch file—though I don’t suggest doing that. A better option is to reinstall Windows with a genuine version.

These instructions use a built-in Windows utility. Avoid using the hacktool, so proceed to remove it. The guide also explains how to activate Windows with codes you haven’t bought. This site doesn’t support piracy, so it’s best to buy a license instead.

I understand this site doesn't support piracy, right? I purchased the laptop this way and was only interested in learning about the buyer's offerings.
