• Cannot activate Windows, the product key already in use

  Original title: product key already in use.

  Recently, my computer crashed (power).  Try to avoid problems with my hard drive, I bought the same computer exactly on the line.  I installed my old hard drive on the newest computer and all is well... Except, when trying to activate my Windows Vista Ultimate OS I get the error message "The key of product already in use" Microsoft site confirms that the product key is authentic, but still will not let me activate.  All solutions?

  Your old computer had a "Retail" or "OEM" of Windows installed version?

  OEM versions are related to the 1st motherboard they are installed and can not be activated on another motherboard. The only exception is the 'mother' is exactly the same make / model / part number as the original motherboard.

  Commercial versions can be moved from one computer to another without problem except that the the phone activation may be required.

• Cannot activate Windows 8 error "the Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not to own pieces."

  Original title: invalid product key :(

  Today, I tried to load my computer and was faced with the blue screen error short story that my hard drive some how became corrupt and had no partition. Fortunately, I had a friend who told me step by step how to solve this problem using my hard drive in my brothers pc. When it came to reinstalling windows I booted the computer directly from my windows disc 8 and when I tried to activate the key once I was ready to I received an error Code: 0xC004F061Description: The Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not for own pieces. Means that I can not use the key I bought and must buy a new one? It seems really unfair because I've already spent money on the upgrade.

  You upgraded to Windows 8, but did not have an earlier version of Windows Installer (error 0xC004F061)

  If you see error 0xC004F061 when you try to activate Windows 8, this means that you are using a product key for an upgrade of Windows 8 version and a previous version of Windows wasn't on your PC when Windows 8 was installed. To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

  If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.

  Yes, that's why. Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, Norton, and
  McAfee all turn them off Defender. It's good, not bad. Not only is at - it
  potential conflict, but there is no reason to have both. they are all
  basically have something very similar to the built-in Defender.
  and both running at once will be your performance level and create the
  risk of problems that are contrary to each other.

  also try to stop a web sight to come whenever I start the computer. Cannot delete because the Defender is not on.

  It is not correct that you can't remove it without defender. Use
  MSCONFIG, which is part of Windows.

• Cannot activate Windows defender error 0x800106ba

  original title: Windows defender

  When I click on windows defender in control panel it States it is turned off and when I Flash similar to turn on windows Defender, the following error message: Windows defender encounters the following error: 0x800106ba.  Please help me in this regard.

  First of all, what AV program do you use?  Several intentionally disable Defender during installation to prevent conflicts - what could be normal and not a problem.

  If this isn't the case, then check the following thread where at least 3 different solutions are available for exactly the same error message with the Defender:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/itprovistaapps/thread/f5536f2d-aceb-41a5-beb6-92e5d3b2f73f.  Maybe we'll solve your problem.

  I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, post back with the results of what you have tried and your current AV program and we'll see what we can try.

  Hi Jarska,

  ·        You did changes to the computer recently before the issue started?

  ·        If your computer came pre-installed with Windows Vista, or you don't have it installed separately?

  You receive this error 0xC004E003 when the Software Licensing Service reported that license evaluation failed on your computer. You can access the link below and follow the steps in method C and check if that helps you solve the problem of activation. If the C method does not work, you can follow the steps in method G and try activation using the automated phone system.

• Is impossible to activate Windows 7 error "server cannot validate it.

  Original title: cannot activate Windows 7.

  I got this copy of Windows for a while and just recently built a new computer. I got this copy on other computers until either dead or I no longer use. (a laptop computer is still usable, but I doubt that I ever will be again once, just bought a new laptop with win8 installed...)

  Reading these threads, I noticed that many threads mentions a copy of Windows by computer - but I have 2 computers with the same copy of windows 7 on it. My understanding is that a copy of windows is associated with a single person, not every computer that person has, as long as its for personal and non-commercial use.

  I don't remember exactly where I got this idea, it may have been the person who built the first time, my office about 4 years ago, but nevertheless I've always had a desktop and a laptop with the same copy of windows inside. I also experienced a few computers since I no longer use, but I still installed the same copy on the computer replacement without any problem.

  What should I do? I have to buy a new copy of Windows? Or should I report somehow old computers that had the copy in it but is now trash?

  Hello

  Operating system Windows licenses: license = one Installation.

  ________________________________

  And this rule also applies:

  If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), or OEM System Builders license, this product key provided with your computer/laptop to the OEM license preinstalled and is not transferable.

  The OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc. machines and OEM System Builders license) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

  Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

  And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

  _______________________________

  If it is a retail license and transfer it to you and it is installed on a machine, you may need to follow these steps.

  If it does require phone activation, do not follow Demand of Auto, but brace yourself for a real person explain as to what has been done for purposes of re-setup
