How to Activate Windows by Phone (SLUI 4 Method)
📝 Introduction
If you’ve entered your product key and Windows still won’t activate online, don’t worry — this is very common. The solution? You can use phone activation, a method officially supported by Microsoft, and it works even without an internet connection.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to activate Windows using the SLUI 4 command, step by step.
✅ Step 1: Open SLUI 4
This command opens the Windows phone activation wizard.
-
Press Windows + R
-
Type: slui 4
-
Press Enter
✅ A new window will open asking you to select your country or region.
✅ Step 2: Choose Your Country
-
Select your current country or region from the list (example: United States)
-
Click Next
You’ll see a toll-free Microsoft phone number and a long numeric code called the Installation ID.
✅ Step 3: Call Microsoft
-
Call the number displayed on the screen.
-
Use the automated voice system (you don’t need to speak to an agent).
-
The system will ask you to enter your Installation ID.
✅ Step 4: Enter the Confirmation ID
After you’ve given the Installation ID, Microsoft will give you a Confirmation ID in return.
-
Enter the Confirmation ID in the boxes on your screen
