Activation of Windows after the end of support
The question is what will happen with the activation of windows once microsoft stops supporting windows vista or other windows like windows 7?
For example, that I will continue to use vista for older games and software, but sometimes there is no need to reinstall if something is wrong (I had problems with the updates and reinstaled vista, after that it works well). And my scanner is not scanning software for windows 7, so I need old Windows.

Get the popup to the activation of Windows 7 after new installation
I used my actual activation key after a new installation (not an upgrade) of W7 on full CD/DVD with sticker. It seemed to work but I keep getting harassed to activate because the key is supposed to be invalid. Experiment with the options I tried to "Buy a new key online." which took me to a site Web of MS page that CITES "because it is installed on your Windows PC is authentic", etc. Something is wrong, but what?

Activation of Windows 8 not to reinstall after - HELP!
Hello
A few months ago, I bought a product key of Windows 8. I have installed Windows 8 and entered the product key - the two succeeded.
I recently had to reinstall Windows because of some connectivity issues, I've had.
I am now told by Windows that my activation code is blocked - error code = c004c003. I think it's because the code has already been activated before, by me.
I tried the phone twice activation system for nothing doesn't.
Can you please unlock this code was declared valid by your system a few months ago. I guess from what I read that there was a hardening of security protocols before Windows 10 released.
Help, please.
Kind regards
Andy

Activation problem of license after you have reinstalled Windows of Geek Squad
I had a massive virus and went to Geek Squad to the wipe/rebuild the computer. The new Vista now asks me to activate windows, but I don't have the product keys. Can you help me with either a general product key or let me know what I need to fix this problem. Whenever the computer is on he asks me to activate windows.
Hi ChannelPro11,
You are asked to provide a product key? If the windows are simply say you must activate windows then just click the icon to activate, select this option to activate via the internet and the system must activate. If, on the other hand, a message comes up saying 'key product already in use', this means that you have already activated using this key and activate this time, you need to call the Windows activation line - see this link from my Web site:http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm
If, however, you are prompted to enter a product key, then the key must be to the rear of the PC or the bottom if it's a laptop. If you still can not find, or the number based on the PC does not return to the Geek Squad and tell them to sort out the problem for you. They fixed it so it should be in full working condition when you get back. And I mean 'complete order' with a full copy enabled operating system. You took it to repair a copy fully activated in Windows, so you expect him back with a fully enabled (and of course functional) copy of the operating system.
This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

Activation of Windows 7 after reinstallation problem
So, a few weeks ago, my laptop has been infected with something, and my bf suggested resinstalling the operating system to wipe the computer clean, so we did. We used his copy of the full edition of Windows 7 that he had bought in a bookshop on campus. Jump in now, I realize that I have to activate windows and try to do it with the product of his cd key. When it starts to turn on, it says "the following error occurred while trying to use the product key: Code: 0xC004F061 Description: the Software Licensing Service determined that this specified product usable only key for the upgrade, not for new installations." Because this does not work, I used the key on the back of my laptop. Then he said: "the product key you entered will not work with this edition of Windows 7." You must run the installation of Windows 7 or enter a product key Windows 7 Ultimate. »
If I'm screwed? I'll have to go and buy ANOTHER copy of Windows 7 Ultimate so I can have a 'legitimate' Windows copy, even if it already is legit? Help, please. Thank you.How to activate Windows 7 or Vista manually (activate by phone)

Activation for windows xp problem
I have purchase a windows xp home edition and it has been activated before sucssfully. After that some time the card mother of the machine were damaged. For this reason, I have to change the Cpu, but after that windows cannot activate in my new machine. Please tell me the solution.
First say you that the motherbard does not - as you did only changed the CPU - you also change the mothrboard?
What OS XP Home license type purchased? -Sale retail or OEM (OEM disc will have "to a facility in a new PC" integrated into the hologram)?
If OEM and you changed the motherboard, then you will defend your cause with the operator of Activation - that you need to communicate with in any case.
You must use telephone Activation - and when the ansafone asks what service you need do NOT respond. This should force the operator to pick up, which may solve your problem.
