• I installed Windows 7 not genuine, I need to activate it, but I could not find the product key

  * Original title: product key

  I installed Windows 7 not genuine, I need to activate it, but I could not find the product key. Could someone guide me please.

  If you can't find the product key, you will need to buy a new one:

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

• Can not verify the product key

  Just bought DSP 64-bit version of Windows 8 for installation on the new PC self-built.

  I go to the step where I enter the activation key when printed on the sticker on the back cardboard provided in DVD.
  I get "we couldn't verify the product key. Please check your installation media. »
  The key was entered CORRECTLY - checked several times.
  VERY frustrating.
  I would like to add that I am a MAC client, set up a PC for some applications in a university here as a research tool and I am very disappointed with this so far. It is absolutely absurd that we find errors like this with such new technology.

• Reinstalling Windows Vista, but do not have the product key. How can I find?

  Install Vista on two machines
  OK, so one of my friends has Ubunto Linux installed on their system and they want Windows Vista back. I said I would do and use my disks of Vista OS (16 in total).

  Now, the fun is that it doesn't have the product key to its original copy of Vista so how I get it back?

  It had Vista installed on it before Linux, however based on a virus that Vista should be completely removed and Linux has been installed as an operating system that is temporary until we find Vista once again, since I'm the one with the OS disk, then we re-install it.

  So I'll be able to have my copy of Vista on two different computers?

  ALSO: Vista came with the computer when he brought it but no recovery disk (as they did with XP) has been provided.

  Hello

  1 No. you cannot use your product key on his computer and your computer: Installation is permitted with a license.

  And if yours is preinstalled (OEM license), you could not even give it Vista and consider your computer off.

  2. you can't find the product key for the operating systems pre-installed when the product key on the sticker is missing or lost; read this Information:

  The way around this is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send recovery discs to reinstall the operating system properly. They should send records for a small fee.

  While they are in contact with the Manufaxcturer of the computer also ask them if there is a way to reinstall the operating system on a recovery partition on the hard drive of your laptop, allowing them to save money.

  Either of these methods of recovery normally does not imply that you have to insert a product key as factory Setup key is automatically used to activate this process.

  See you soon.

• Uploaded image of Windows 7 Professional will not accept the product key that came with my computer.

  I have a Dell laptop, Studio, approximately 1 year, delivered with Windows 7 Professional installed - the label with the genuine product key is located at the bottom of the laptop. Shortly after I got it I deleted the recovery partition to make room for Linux installed next to Windows. I had problems with Windows system (mainly caused by me bad installation software and drivers without proper backups) so I decided to reinstall Windows. I had already deleted the recovery partition and wouldn't use it anyway because I prefer a clean system without unwanted from the manufacturer in this regard. I did not receive a Windows operating system installation DVD with my computer, so I downloaded a (64-bit Windows 7 Professional, the same as the original operating system) which already had SP1 on it (the version of Win7Pro installed Dell's not SP1). I installed Windows on this drive and attempted to activate using the product key that came with my computer, but it would not accept the key. I don't have time to try to solve this problem, but now the period of one month is up and my computer does not work correctly.
  I suspect that the problem may be due to me using the SP1 disc. If this is the case, should I reinstall Windows again? I have * NOT * GOING to buy another product key when I have already paid for a genuine version of Windows. I just want to be able to use my computer without the ridiculous slowdowns caused by pre-installed software and the way I chose.

  Thanks for any help with this problem, I really need fo fix my computer.

  original title: Activation error, Windows 7 Professional
  Windows product key: *-* - M3DJT - 4J3WC-733WD
  Windows license Type: OEM SLP

  The key to your report is your OEM SLP key which can not be activated. This isn't the key to COA.

  but the key I tried to use is what I copied on the COA the day I got the computer of the book where I put all the information on my computers.
  
  
  Is the product key in your book is the partial key in your report?
  You must change the product key to the one on your COA.
  Check your compartment of the COA.
  The other solution is to reinstall your Dell OEM recovery disks or recovery partition. This self will activate your computer.
  Additional information:

  Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:

  (A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

  (B) COA SLP: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side (or at the bottom, [or in the battery compartment]) of your computer. It is a valid product key, but must be used only in certain situations (for example, if the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone. (Note: all manufacturers that use the SLP OEM system are bound by contract to include a certificate of Authenticity sticker (COA), which has a COA SLP key, on the computer)

• Parse error SFC "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation".

  Original title: my computer is messed up, and I'm unable to fix
   
  (1) double click on files will open in a new window
  (2) not possible to delete several records
  I tried to find and implement several solutions found on these forums for the 1st problem listed above. I tried to go into folder options and disable double click open files option and I tried to replace with original system files according to the http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-files/folders-open-in-new-window-despite-folder-option/5fba3897-7655-4068-8992-2d8b20063b3f and nothing has worked. I tried to run the command prompt in administrator mode to scan files using the command "sfc/scannow" and even that did not work, as when checking for 59%, it says "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation"
  I tried to create new administrator user accounts and the problem persists.
  I am also unable to delete some files. Internet Explorer would be my best and later example. I ran microsoft update, it installed IE10, and I was unable to start IE. I have not found in the list of uninstaller, so I tried to delete the files manually but Icould do not, that I needed approval from "TrustedInstaller". I played a bit with permissions and gave myself all permissions, with the exception of special permissions (which was grey), and then he said I needed the permission of 'Administrators' when I tried to delete the folder. Well, I'm on my administrator account, what the devil?
  I ran some virus scans of Malwarebytes Anti-malware, Virus of Sophos, Microsoft Security Essentials, and 2013 Bitdefender removal tool and removed something taken before implementing ALL the solutions mentioned above attempts. Try a system restore after that these scans completed, I discovered that I had no restore point before the installation of the Microsoft fix - it (i.e. when I was first trying to tackle these questions)
  Is there something I can do?

• SFC/scannow stuck at 70 percent and I get the message "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation".

  Original title: whenever I run SFC/scannow I get to 70 percent and I get the message "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation". How can I fix this problem and complete the scan?

  Please answer with repair options and details on where to go to get there.

  If safe mode can't complete, it can be continuous malware (run malwarebytes) so clean, you will probably have to run a repair installation.

  Please download the free version of Malwarebytes.

  If the edition installed does not match the edition, you have a product key because it will not activate.

  If you have a product key for the specific edition installed, try the phone activation:

  You perform the steps from the administrator account?
  
  To determine which files can be repaired by the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
  Step 1:
   
  NOTE: When SFC is running, it records its actions in the C:\WINDOWS\LOGS\CBS\CBS. NEWSPAPER. You can find specific entries of SFC searching [SR] tags in the newspaper.
  
  For how, see the SFC analysis details in the CBS. JOURNAL:
   
  * Open an elevated command prompt.
  
  * In the elevated command prompt, type findstr/c: "[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > %userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt and press ENTER.
   
  * Close the elevated command prompt.
  
  * Click the sfcdetails.txt file just set your desktop to see the SFC scan details (those with the tags [SR]) to the CBS. NEWSPAPER.
   
  * You can safely delete the sfcdetails.txt file later if you wish.
  Reply back with the details in the log file.
  
  If it does not help to complete the scan, you can complete the steps below and check out them.
  
  You're able to boot in safe mode ?
   
  Step 2:
   
  For more information on how to log in to safe mode, see the following Microsoft article:
   
  Startup options (including safe mode)

  In addition, you can connect to the command prompt and check the drive for errors, and check if that makes things more simple.
   
  At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
   
  Chkdsk /r

• Windows 10 we could not update the system reserved partition

  I have windows 7 Home Edition premium, no idea why it says windows 10 we could not update the partition system reserved when I try and update?

  • Make sure you have enough disk space.
  • Although the recommended minimum requirements are 16 GB (32-bit), 20 GB (64-bit), if you upgrade from a previous version of Windows or a previous version, you will need to have at least 40-50 GB of free space to accommodate the installation files.
  • First run Disk Clean up.
  • Archive files rarely used to an external hard drive.
  • Consider data synchronization to OneDrive or similar online service and do a custom installation.
  • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
  • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
  • Do a clean boot, and then try again.
  • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both and try the installation again.
  • If you update via Windows Update, when download reaches 100%, disconnect the Internet LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, and proceed with the installation.
  • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
  • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account
  • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (e.g., USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripheral non-essential).
