The Activation Wizard gives you the following two choices to continue:. Activate by using the Internet The Activation Wizard automatically contacts the Microsoft licensing servers through your Internet connection. When you activate the software through the Internet, the product key is sent to Microsoft through an encrypted transfer.
If you decide to activate the product through the Internet and you are not already connected, the wizard alerts you that there is no connection. Activate by using the telephone You can telephone an Activation Center and activate the product with the help of a customer service representative.
Telephone activation might take longer than activation through the Internet. You should be at your computer when you call. Additionally, you should have your software product key available. Telephone numbers for Activation Centers vary by product license and country or region. Use the telephone number that is provided on your Activation Wizard screen to contact the Microsoft Activation Center.

Running it in Windows XP compatibility mode and as administrator has so far been unsuccessful as it apparently was with FSX itself actually, I'm not quite sure how I managed to get activate.
I found some info on line about editing the registry that might get activate. I would very much like to know if there is a way to get activate. The only way to do this is indeed to "muck around with the registry". Here is a detailed explanation. Awaiting the new Microsoft Flight Sim and the purchase of a new system. Running a Chromebook for now! Yes, these were the same exact same instructions I found in the Microsoft Community forum by Dale Rodrigues. Sigh, I was hoping to avoid this!
How does one backup the registry just in case as the instructions advise doing? I haven't had a reason to edit the registry since WinXP came out or even earlier!
