This is the technology behind most popular "cracks," such as KMSpico. In a corporate setting, a company's computers regularly connect to a KMS server to prove they have a valid license. Activators exploit this by emulating a fake KMS server right on your own computer or by connecting to a public, unlicensed one. The downside is that this "activation" typically only lasts for 180 days, requiring the activator to continually re-activate your software in the background, eating up system resources and creating more points of vulnerability.

The most immediate risk is malware infection. Security researchers warn that many activation tools are not malicious on their own but are frequently bundled with dangerous malware. The cybersecurity firm Huntress explains that while AutoKMS tools themselves are hack tools used to bypass activation, they are "a huge security risk because it is often bundled with dangerous malware like trojans and spyware". When you download Winoffact from an unofficial source, you have no guarantee of what is actually included. You might be installing a Remote Access Trojan (RAT), a keylogger that captures your passwords, or a hidden cryptocurrency miner that drains your CPU.
