Vol vs. VLK
I have been troubled by Vol and VLK, I don't understand it, I really know, but many of the friends of Hack Software seem to be unclear, do some FTP software naming seventeen, so I can't figure it out. Unclear or indeed. Therefore, special reprint this article, sweeping blindness, not I wrote, but there is very practical value, absolutely recommended! Just a simple say, Vol is a commonly known major customer free version, VLK is the installation key for VOL, simple, understand? Don't say anything in the future, what VLK version is, shame! VLK is just a key ... Moreover, it should be a VOL version ~~~

You May License Products Through An ORIGINAL Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). These Products, Such As Windows Operating Systems, Come Installed When You Purchase A New Computer.
OEM software is a version of the computer production plant, no need to say more.
Full Packaged Product (FPP) -Retailphysical, Shrink-Wrapped Boxes of licensed Product That Can Be Purchased in a local software retailap is the retail version (boxed software), the volume of this product's CD With "fpp", such as the FPP version of English WXP Pro is wxpfpp_en, where WX is Windows XP, P is Professional (H is Home), and FPP indicates that the retail version, EN is an English.

Volume Licensing for OrganizationsYou may enjoy potentially significant savings by acquiring multiple product licenses. Depending on the size and type of your organization. Group Volume License (bulk purchase of the license agreement), which is formulated as a group purchase concessions. The volume of this product has a "Vol" word. Take "Volume" before 3 letters to indicate the volume, such as the VOL version of English WXP Pro's VOL version is wxpvol_en, where WX is Windows XP , P is Professional (Vol without HOME version), VOL indicates that the group batch license version, EN is an English. The access route is mainly the group purchase, and some MSDN users can also get. This version is divided into five versions of "Open License", "Select License", "Enterprise Agreement", "Academic Education Permit" according to the number of purchases, etc.

It can be seen that what we usually say is what SELECT / CORP is a license authorization method. His appearance is to sell the same software with a number of different levels of preferential policies, and the XXX CD of the SELECT / CORP license authorization method. This is a Vol, not there are many kinds, just the same VOL CD with different license methods; volume licensing (product) keys, VLK, it is just a key (key) Just just a legalization of the product, as well as the Key used, because the VOL product does not need to be activated according to the VOL plan! Or, VLK does not refer to a version, but refers to the key required for this version in the deployment (deploy), and the version of the key that needs VLK should be called Vol! Just in practice, there is no need to emphasize this called method, styled accuracy, plus a lot of people's VOL version CD is the reason why the company's selection license, corporate agreement, etc., there will be a lot People call him "Select Edition" and so on. The official website has a form, there is a sentence: "Different Products Require Different Volume Licensing Keys (VLKS). Refer to the Table Below to make your microsoft product.", I think this is fine. Note that the VLK refers to KEY instead of the product.
Obviously, FPP needs to be activated, and Vol does not need to be activated. Said a lot of nonsense, just want everyone to understand his products, the disc above the MODOS, mostly FPP or VOL CD. I hope everyone can label the product that is FPP or Vol, which will become more relaxed, and everyone will not be busy in the concept of these redundancy.
