How to activate Windows: OSLicense PowerShell module replaces slmgr.vbs

Microsoft is retiring VBScript, which also marks the end of slmgr.vbs, the script you have likely used for years to activate Windows, check license status, or configure a KMS server from the command line. The replacement is a new PowerShell module called OSLicense, which returns structured objects instead of text you have to parse. This article explains why slmgr.vbs is going away, when the new module becomes available, and how the commands you already know map to the new cmdlets. It also covers a few limitations you should know about before rewriting scripts.
