    Exclamation Windows Media Center "Pack" Add-on Free Until January

    Add features - Microsoft Windows

    At the above link, Microsoft is offering the Windows Media Center add-on pack to Windows 8 Professonal for free until January 2013. You can get a product key and activation instructions there. This feature appears as an optional upgrade to Windows 8 Pro under Control Panel -> All Control Panel Items -> System -> "Get more features with a new edition of Windows" for $9.99 USD.

    Evidently keys are not being sent yet. I have requested a key twice on different email address. Nothing yet.

    This is true. It is possible the system has been overwhelmed or not put into effect yet. However, reserving a key(s) now would probably be a good idea.

    Best,

    On another forum I moderate some have received their keys some have not. The ones who have gotten them sent a request yesterday.

    Edit: About 2 minutes after I wrote this my key arrived. In process of installing.

    Hang in there. It took mine about 6 hours to get to me. But I did get it and used it and now have media center.

    Confirmed. After about 6-12 hours, check your spam/junk mail folder as well. The subject will be: "Your product key for Windows Media Center Pack"

    I got mine in reasonably good time. The install needed a couple of automatic reboots and took a while but all now 100%

    It took close to 24 hours to get mine, the website also said I should expect a wait time up to 24 hours.

    I have 2 PCs both running Windows 8 Pro, both licenses were bought under the same address. I wonder how I get this for both? I guess I'll try submitting for a second key when I get the first one?

    I believe you have to request the second key using a second email address.
