Received message that my copy of WIndows is not activated. How can I activate pre-installed software?

I have XP Pro Version 2002; Service Pack 3.  This software came pre-loaded on my Dell and I used the same computer and software for several years.  I don't have a product key code.  Why is this activation is requested for the moment?  What can I do about it?

Hi Wyatt33,

It would be if you changed or added hardware and this pushed Windows XP become out of tolerance.

You will need to reactivate the copy of Windows XP.

  • My Windows 7 is now saying that my copy of Windows is not genuine.

    I bought Windows 7 at Newegg in May.  I woke up this morning and found that my computer was restarted.  Not much, I assumed that he had executed the updates.  During his connection, I get a message that this copy of windows is not genuine.

    I followed the guests, download the WindowsActivationUpdate.exe and he said validation failed and directs me to purchase a Windows license

    Were there an update which pushed the Windows validation?  Is there a solution? I'm not spending $100 + to re-enable some thing that I've already spent $100 + on 3 months ago

    original title: this copy of Windows is not genuine

    Based on the report you posted, you have a genuine copy of Windows 7 Home Premium.

  • I have a message in the lower corner of my screen saying that my copy of windows is not genuine.

    * Original title: product key issue

    I have received a more laptop from a friend and wanted to return to factory settings, because he didn't have the necessary disks, I contacted officials of the laptop with the brand and the model that took place in the origin of vista.  They sent me back discs for windows 7 with a product key, but when I installed it I learned the product key is temporary and would not work. Because the laptop is older, the product key on the back of the laptop is now unreadable.  I now have a message in the lower corner of my screen saying that my copy of windows is not genuine.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

    S.Erskine

    If it's a temporary product key, your only option is to buy a genuine full license.

    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. »)

  • My old PC of eight year THAT XP came with the message that says that my copy of Windows must be activated.

    My system is 8 years old XP. I installed all the updates that are offered by Microsoft. No new material has been added since more than a year. I now get a message telling me that my copy of Windows must be activated. This happens in normal Mode and safe mode with networking. Is this a ransom trojan or MS did wobbly in the updates as Genuine MS debacle (DIS) advantages of the other? The Messages I have 3 days where activation!

    Your tips for solving this would be appreciated.

    Dear Noel

    Thanks a lot for your information and advice.

    Ironically, I did not clean ups for fear of screwing it up.  However, I just bought a helmet camera and plugged into the USB to test its audio and video capabilities.  Perhaps that may be the problem.  Next time I'll just use the SD card reader.

    I right click on the Hydroforme icon which has been remember to activate.  Who took me through various routines that finally pointed out that the version of Windows I have is no longer for sale.  He then offered to sell me a current equivalent of Windows 7.  Unwilling to part with the money right away, I did a reboot and followed by the option activate who came.  It's very simple and work very well without fees.

    So, I'm now a "happy bunny".  Thanks a lot for your quick help.  Very much appreciated.

    Concerning

  • Microsoft keeps tellingmy that my copy of Windows is not genuine!

    Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit

    This is the same operation SystemI have had on this computer for the past 6 years, since I bought it all first!  Nothing has changed!  I had no repairs!  There was a Windows Update yesterday and I thought that this could be the problem I did a system restore point before.  That did not help.

    I remember at one point, it says that an update today could not get through and that my copy of windows is not genuine.

    I'm getting pretty annoyed with Microsoft.  They tried to push Windows 10 discount on me for months now and I refuse continuously.  They tried some devious stuff as if we were trying to tell me again and again that my hard drive is about to fail.  I had the drive hard Sentinel and it shows me that my hard drive is 100% excellent health and performance right now, where a week ago, it is 0% and is about to fail.  He did it again and again for a year now, ready to fail a week, then the other it is still 100% perfect once, this has happened since MS came out with Win 10 and wanted everyone to download it for FREE!

    My system information file says I have Win 7 Home premium and it came from Microsoft, so I don't know what to tell them, but they tell ME that I can't get more updates until I install a new Windows OS.

    This is total BS!

    How do I stop this and recognize it as the same operating system that it has always been for the last 6 years?

    Complain do not solve your problem. This type of problem arises for various reasons including:

    1. Malware infestation.

    2. Changing or adding a device installed.

    3. Corruption of the system.

    The easiest way to go is to re - enter the product key, following the instructions of my p [message back.
