• activation code/product key

  Toshiba has replaced my hard drive under warranty, and now my activation code/product key is "invalid" Toshiba said to contact Microsoft - Microsoft said to contact Toshiba. I don't think I should pay something for this problem. All I want is basic programs is the computer when I bought and lost because of a defective hard drive. It came with Windows vista Home premium. Any suggestions? The FRY was no help either.

  Try this and wait for a real person:

• Product key invalid for Activation, failure Code: 0xC004F050

  I have a Dell with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 BIT computer. I have been using this computer for over a year without any major problems. I have not recently installed any software, etc. I shut down my computer last night and when I tried to start this morning, I received the following error message:

  "The product key of Windows Vista Home Edition Premium you typed is invalid for activation". I gives me three options to fix this problem:
  1. access your computer with reduced functionality. (This also will allow you to buy a product online key).
  2. enter a different product key.
  3 contact Dell to help solve this problem.

  I tried to re - type the product key that is listed on the bottom of my computer and I received the 0xC004F050 error code. I tried typing the key again (to make sure that I had typed correctly the first time) and I got the same failure code.

  I looked in the old posts in your forum of answers and I could not find any information to help out me.

  To clarify, I don't have access to my Start menu. When I connect, I just asked to select one of the three options listed above.

  Help, please!

  Hello Cgharagozian,

  Safe Mode boot

  -%SystemRoot%\System32

  -Ask the client to rename (WPA. DBL and WPA. (BAK)

  -Rename to WPA. DBL. OLD and WPA. BAK. OLD

  -Who is finished, I'll have the customer insert the Windows Vista DVD

  -Direct the customer to %systemroot%\inf

  -Locate oobe.inf and ask the customer to install and the path towards the D:\

  -Find the I386 folder

  -In this folder there is a folder named "ActShell" click Open and click OK

  While in Safe Mode, access the registry

  HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current WPAEvents (OOBETimer)

  Within WPAEvents, there is a value (OOBE Timer).  "Change" the value data.  One of the characters was "69."  Change it to '72.  One time changed, right click WPAEvents and click on "Permissions."  Change the permissions of 'System' to DENY.  Then access the "advance settings".  "Uncheck the inherit permissions from Parent."  then the system user account on "Edit" and change permission settings.  Click on apply and OK all settings and then start in Normal Mode.

  Try to activate by phone but first change the product key for the same.  Once completed, I got the customer continue with the wizard.  The activation was successful.

• Product key invalid

  I have a count that I am reformatting. When I put in the product key provided with your computer Windows tells me that it is an invalid key. The computer is like 12 years old but why is no product key valid?

  The Windows OS version: 5.1.2600.2.00010300.3.0.hom

  The installed OS is Windows XP Home - where you get the idea that it is XP Pro?

  What KeyFinder did you use? -It maybe isn't able to cope with SP3, which has a new slice of available keys, including the default key is a.

  I didn't realize how old your machine was - it was built and probably sold prior to the release of SP2, and I suspect it's the bat injured - some old keys cannot be used in an installation of SP3, SP3 can be installed on active systems. (or at least, so I said)

  If you have access to an XP Home OEM SP2 disk, you should be able to use it for installation - RTM or SP1 would work also.

  If you have a retail XP Home RTM/SP1/SP2 disc with a key, then you can install - but DO NOT ENABLE - and then use the PKUT to change the key and activate and then update to SP3.

• HP pc re - install Windows XP Product key invalid

  I bought the HP Compaq DC 7900 Convertible Minitowers PC 3 years with downgrade to Windows XP (preinstalled at shipment).

  Recently, I have problem with my PC and re-formated the pc.  When I tried to re - install Windows XP using the disk provided by the HP (delivered with the purchased PC), it shows that the product key is not valid.  According to my tech sticker pasted on my pc product key was the product key for Windows Vista sticker.

• Questions by activating the product key from a windows machine pre-installed 8

  Hi all

  I bought this machine pre-installed windows 8 for the laptop dell inspiron model 3521, with a friend who stays in Doha, the Qatar. I stay in Pune, Maharashtra, India. When I got my hands on the machine, windows was still not enabled surprisingly. I called the customer service dell Sunday, who confirmed that it was purchased in the Gulf and it is pre-installed windows machine 8. The Executive of the customer asked me to call Monday for anywhere between 09:00 and 18:00 to get the product key.  When I asked my friend about activation, it was completely dropped on activation or reinstallation of windows 8 on top of pre-installed windows 8 OS. I guess he bought the machine pre installed and active windows 8, but somehow, through someone, windows has been reinstalled and the resettlement process could not brought the product key from the BIOS.

  Now, as I had fun at hand, because it is Sunday, I searched a few tools retrieve the product key from the BIOS, and I was finally able to get their hands on the product key of my machine, but has not managed to activate my windows using command prompt (using slmgr slui.exe) and user interface. Here is the message I get.

  d? What happens if I am presented with the same message even after reinstalling windows 8 again on my machine?

  Please kindly help

  Thanks for posting your query to the Microsoft forum.

  I appreciate your efforts to try to solve the problem and I will definitely help you with this.

  This could be due to the change in the country / region or the product key that you might be for a different version of Windows like Pro Pack etc.

  I suggest you to change the country and enter the product key and check.

  a. in the area of research of charms, type slui 4 , then select slui 4 search results.

  b. click on the arrow down under Select/change your country or region , and then click Next.

  c. call the telephone number indicated on the call and provide your installation ID screen.

  d. do not say what whether, or press any key. Wait for a Customer Service representative to answer the phone.

  e. explain in detail. (Please check if the key is for Windows 8)

• Windows 8 product key invalid

  I am trying to download 10 Windows using the ISO method. Everything worked so far, but now I'm up to the point where you are prompted to enter your product key.
  I entered my correct product key, and it came up saying that it was an invalid key. I retried several times and I made sure I'm using the right key, but I get the message error "this product key has not worked. Please check it and try again, or try a different key. »

  I finished downloading a program that can find my key on my PC for me, just to double check. I get the same result, I enter the key, he says, and it is not valid.
  The program that I downloaded was Produkey.

  Can't answer your question but I also have the same problem.  Maybe I downloaded the correct version to install?  I did one installs many clean with my 8.1 key product and it worked (I got my key written in various places and also double-checked with produkey before installing windows 10.

  Good luck...  It looks like I can go back to windows 8.
