Windows 7 not recognized as true after reinstalling on one machine virtual Parallels Desktop
Hi all -
I'm a Mac user running Windows 7 on my virtual machine (Parallels Desktop). I did for years, even the upgrade to Windows 7 after using XP for a long time.Recently, I had a problem with the upgrade of Parallels Desktop, which could only be repaired by removing and then reinstalling the Virtual Machine Parallels. This, of course, obliged me to reinstall all programs (including Windows 7). Since I bought my Windows 7 and Office 2010 at Staples (Yes... not online or eBay copy here), I know that my copies are authentic and I used Winows 7 for the years leading up to this relocation. I still have the original case, the disks and the sticker with the product key. I used this key when I did the re-install and everything worked perfectly... until today when I turned on the virtual machine and he asked for me to enter the product key, say something (I'm sorry I didn't write that down) on the exhale. I got my key, Windows 7 came out, but it is said that "this copy of Windows is not genuine" I get message "you can be a victim of software counterfeiting". Once again... I bought full fare at Staples, so I do not know is not the case.Any suggestions?Thanks in advance for your help.Have you tried to restart by phone?

Error in product activation key Windows 8 0xC0000022 / 0xC004F012 & more...
Hello everyone.
I've been running Windows 8 for almost a year now. Authentic, active, copy no problem whatsoever. So after some personal problems with security, last week, I did a factory re install my Windows 8 X 64 system with high hopes.
All I get is the Windows Activation arise regularly, but when I try to activate Windows, error 0XC0000022 code appears. (PARAGRAPH 1).
Tried to activate by phone, but I do not have Installation ID slui 4 being listening off too.Ran 'SLUI 3', product code entered, only to get "could not verify that key, then try another. (SS 2)
Even tried as mentioned, SLUI 4, enter "Denmark" and new 0XC0000022 (SS-3), then a window with no installation ID
So, after a lot of research and searching the Internet for a solution possible, I got to try some solutions without success.
I tried to launch a recommended cmd
sfc/scannow
and this is what I have... online or not
So I tried the next best thing I knew 'The MGADiag tool' only to be again disappointed by this screen
and that's where he suddenly became chaotic, cause now, I got a new error then look up.
Apparently, this problem occurs when some files in the update of Windows are missing, even if the update is downloaded and extracted successfully.
"" So I quickly discovered a fix recommending'Troubleshooting Windows Update tool "fix Microsoft ' and tried, with a real outcome, for the first time since a started with that, a week ago. It looks like this
Here I am through, Yes! Finally and I keept going on with the recommended steps, which mentioned a 'Refresh your PC without your files' so I did, only to be disappointed again 2 hours later... by (SS1) error 0xC0000022
Without all the other tracks, so I started poking around in my control panel, just to be surprised by that too... What, my Windows is active, but not active? huh
When it clearly States in 'view details of activation' ' NOT AVAILABLE ' a click later
and yet once, click later on this page, I was tempted to look at the details "activation" that lead me to this screenshot for you guys
Error code:
0xC004F012
The software Licensing Service reported that the call failed because the value of the entry key was not found.
Now, this is where I get really confused, because now we have 3 error codes listed... and am honestly lose trust in all these solutions, but cela a seams to be the problem... It turns out that this error pops up when something is wrong with your 'Software Protection service' in Services.msc. So I checked out and Yes really enough...
Software protection service does not work! explains that I come back with all the other services are in effect, including the activation of Windows associated with those. So start it leaves are we going?
Access is denied? Hmm what a surprise. Pretty much identical to the previous error 0xC0000022. Which means normally is wrong with my permissions as access should not be denied... So I went to the next logical place... Properties to verify permissions and Yes, really everything is grey like this
AHA I got through and I found myself quickly sppsvc.exe file in my Windows dic. and changed all the permissions for FULL CONTROL. Only to return to the exact same small screens.
Now, here, I'm a week later, with a lot of knowledge, but no real results... really confused and embarrassed... So, I really hope that someone out there is smart enough to offer an adequate solution for this.
PLEASE DON ' T BOTHER IF YOUR JUST SOME MOD WITH A USELESS FANCY COPY PASTE TO THE SHOW... I NEED HELP, NOT A FANCY FILLERS.
OK, I don't usually answer and try to help, but as I spent so much time researching this issue after experiencing the same issue here, it will:
This solution worked for me on Windows 7, it has not been tested on Windows 8, but it worked for me after I have tried all the same steps that the poster original, nothing helps.
The problem is the Software Protection service, and is unable to start as you found it from the beginning.
Step 1. Open an administrative command prompt.
Step 2. Copy and paste the following command into your command prompt, and press to enter. This properly resets the permissions on the service:
ICACLS % windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform/Grant, "BUILTIN\Administrators: (OI) (CI) (F)" "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM: (OI) (CI) (F)" ' NT Service\sppsvc: (OI) (CI)(R,W,D) "," NETWORK SERVICE: (OI) (CI) (F)»»»
Step 3. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to %windir%\System32
Step 4. Make sure you can see hidden and system files and folders.
Step 5. Delete all the files/folders with the following name (you can move them to a folder to archive instead of delete them if you want to be sure):
7B296FB0-376B-497e-B012-9C450E1B7327-5P-0.C7483456-A289-439d-8115-601632D005A0
Step 6. In your Windows Explorer window, navigate to:
%windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\
Step 7. Tokens.dat and rename it tokens.bak
Step 8. Try to start the Software Protection service. It should start successfully today. If he does then restart the computer and try to activate Windows again.
Thanks to Craig Garland and Santosh Bennett for their positions on the Technet site on the Software Protection service which lead me to this response.

I installed windows 7 on a mac with boot camp and then used parallels to create a virtual machine to run windows inside Mac os10.6. Now he says I need to activate windows again, but he said I need a new activation key. Any ideas would be appreciated
Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key. 1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key. Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

-Problem of activation Microsoft Office on new machine virtual Windows Vista
I use a MacBook Pro on which I have just updated the Parallels Desktop virtual machine software. This software has removed the earlier version (doesn't give me a notice, unfortunately, so my Office software deleted it from the virtual machine image). Now, when I try to run office software in the virtual machine running Vista, I get a notice I need to activate the software. When I try to activate online, I get a message that I've already activated all copies that I am allowed. When I try to activate by phone, I'm going to "activate by phone" in the activation wizard, press the 'next' button, but then the activation wizard stops without giving me the phone number. Help!

I bought Windows Vista Home Basic in April 2008. Order number: 1000831652. I have the electronic invoice and original original DVD. I had also activated my product then. Later, I installed SP1 and SP2, and regular updates.
Three months ago I formatted my HDD and reinstalled Windows, SP1 and SP2. However, could not activate my windows. Error message says "PRODUCT KEY ALREADY IN USE. So I re-formated and reinstalled Windows - but received the same error message while activating. I repeated the format routine - install three times during the last three months, but the same result while activating - "PRODUCT KEY ALREADY in USE.
I also tried activating by phone but no results there either. Kindly help me to activate and register my product.
Kind regards
