"We couldn't get your developer license for Windows 8", error 0xC03F1014

Solution

If your copy of Windows 8 is cracked or activated illegitimately then you'll get this error.

If for whatever reason you don't want to / can't get a legitimate copy, then deactivating the crack to go back to the trial period, acquiring the license then re-activating it should fix this issue.

Problem

Whenever I try to get my developer's license in Windows 8 Professional with WMC for Visual Studio Ultimate with Blend, I get this error: We couldn't get your developer license for Windows 8. (Error 0xC03F1014) How do I fix this error to get my developer's license?
