To verify your Active Directory-based activation configuration, complete the following steps:
1. After you configure Active Directory-based activation, start a computer that is running an edition of Windows that is configured by volume licensing.
1. If the computer has been previously configured with a MAK key, replace the MAK key with the GVLK by running the **slmgr.vbs /ipk** command and specifying the GLVK as the new product key.
1. If the computer is not joined to your domain, join it to the domain.
1. Sign in to the computer.
1. Open Windows Explorer, right-click **Computer**, and then click **Properties**.
1. Scroll down to the **Windows activation** section, and verify that this client has been activated.
> [!NOTE]
> If you are using both KMS and Active Directory-based activation, it may be difficult to see whether a client has been activated by KMS or by Active Directory-based activation. Consider disabling KMS during the test, or make sure that you are using a client computer that has not already been activated by KMS. The **slmgr.vbs /dlv** command also indicates whether KMS has been used.

> To manage individual activations or apply multiple (mass) activations, please consider using the [VAMT](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/deployment/volume-activation/volume-activation-management-tool).
