  • 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.

  • Cannot activate Windows 8 error key is already used by another pc.

    OT: Product key Windows 8.

    Hi, so I bought windows 8 pro a year ago and installed on my laptop but I recently bought a new desktop computer and gave my laptop to my sister. She didn't so I put windows 7 on the laptop for her and went to put windows 8 on my windows desktop 8. It installed fine but when I go to activate windows it says that the key is already used by another pc. Why he says this when the computer that I had windows 8 is no longer a windows 8?

    You use telephone activation. The database of activation of Microsoft still has your old laptop, saved using the key of Windows 8.

    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 Code: 0x800705b4.

    OT: Unable to turn on Windows Defender

    In Control Panel, click on "Windows Defender", it shows that it is off. Select the link "click here to start", but no response after I clicked on it. After a while, a pop-up message: timeout expired. (Error code: 0x800705b4)

    In Control Panel, click on "Windows Defender", it shows that it is off. Select the link "click here to start", but no response after I clicked on it.

    If you have another program that contains its own version of Defender is the case, for example Microsoft Security Essentials antimalware installed, it will disable Windows Defender.  It's normal.

    What software antivirus, security, etc. you have installed?

    If you run one of those, she didn't have Defender. It's
    good, not bad. Not only is there potential conflict, but there is no
    reason to have both; essentially, they have something very similar

    cannot activate windows vista ultimate 64-bit it says error code: 0xc004E003

    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.

    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

    Upgrade paths:
    When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

    If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

    Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
    Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
    Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
    Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.
