The keys are working all the time now, however if u get to the key page, and refresh you get a different key sometimes, there seems to be like 6 keys,

ALSO, I've checked and the keys are all the same doesnt matter what live account you use.

There seems to be 10 different keys in total.

Check with other people the first 5 digits i bet they match ?

CONFIRMED- ALL FIXED EVERY REFRESH GETS A KEY!

Keys seem to repeat but some are different occasionally.

I thought you were full of crap, but it's true. I get new keys every 3-4 refreshes.

I am not refreshing anymore, because I want the 2.5 million keys to go to others who will use them as well.

Sorrowuk: None of my first 5 digits match on any of the keys I've obtained.

You will have the same keys as other people.

I bet someones 32 bit key starts - 6JKV2

and a 64 bit key starting 482XP

Ok, i see that the "Beta download page" is still not working.... but it seems that its now possible to get keys pretty easy... and they work, confirmed by me, just activated. Microsoft screwed up here... all those who use this forum now know how to get them... soon M$ will run out of keys to give... So it would be good if those that got their keys to stop getting more or others wont have any left ;)

If you refresh enough times u will get a 32 bit key starting - 6JKV2

and a 64 bit key starting - 482XP

Therefore everyone gets the same keys, and there is only 10 of them round about

Odd I got one key for x64 that started with 482XP, and x64 6JKV2

Maybe there is only 10 key for everyone :p

I think you may be onto something w/ the ten keys per person.

Let me just take the time that this proves the pirates point as USUAL. If we go the legitimate way, we can't get any keys or beta. For all we know the keys will be nearly gone by time they FINALLY get around to doing what they said they were gonna do 24 hours ago.

Instead going the *alternative* way, we get lots of keys and we get them now.

What a joke.

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
