Software must be validated

LAST UPDATE OF VISTA WAS KB980248 28/04/10.  System tells me I need to validate the software.  Software is preloaded when I bought the computer a year ago.  Laptop product key is missing.  Where can I get my product key?

Use http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html to get the product key for your system.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

  • to force the Bill AP must be validated after the execution of the interface

    Hello
    I use the OPEN INTERFACE INVOICE for the INVOICE of the AP to load. Once I loaded, I noticed that the status of the invoice is not VALIDATED. How to make the INTERFACE program to validate when loading?

    or any API / bills program I can use to validate the existing?

    I had thousands of invoices to load.

    You can create a set of request which includes 2 sequential steps
    (1) importation of invoices
    (2) validation of the invoice

    And then run the entire application. In this way, the validation of the Bill runs automatically after importation of invoices.

    Hello DeeSmuv & regjng,

    Thank you for your response back!

    How long have you not been able to access Windows DVD maker?  I suggest you visit the link below and following the steps to see if this solves the problem.  Have you ever been able to use Windows DVD Maker without any problems in the past?  Have you tried to do a system restore if it already worked?

    The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit of Validation. Can't I just buy a no serial online?

    Last year I had a Dell XPS with Vista Home Premium 64-bit pre-installed. Since then, I've changed over the entire computer with the exception of the still installed with Vista boot drive. Now, the system tells me the software is invalid, and it must be validated.

    I realize as OEM OS' are is not supported, but why can't I just buy a new serial of MS no? Does this mean I have to buy Windows 7 since Vista isn't the case to buy more?

    Thank you

    -Mario

    Hello Mario,

    I suggest that you contact Dell. Software OEMS is pre-activated and assistance is the responsibility of the OEM - in your Dell case. Explain to them what happened and they should be able to help.

    By 'Validate', I assume you mean 'enable '. Have you actually tried activating the software to see if it will turn on? If you have tried to enable you get a message saying that the "product key is already in use"? If so, take a look at this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm

    You may also like to telephone line (free in most countries) activation by following the instructions in the article above. Explain to them your problem and they may general counsel.

    There is no product keys, they must be purchased with physical media, that is, the Vista DVD. Don't try to buy one on EBay or places like that because they are usually pirated copies and the product key would have been blocked by Microsoft, so you will be in the same boat as you are now.

    This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

  • Is there any web page of Microsoft, where I can check if the product key is valid or not before using it?

    Hello team,

    Are there any Microsoft webpage where I can type my product key for windows 8 and receive:
    -product information - if the key is valid, what version and so on.
    -instruction where and how download the correct software for this product key.
    I have just a key card - card with a product key for Windows 8, which must be valid and which I have not yet installed and I need a proof for it.
    I found this web page:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/genuine/validate/DownloadValidationSupport.aspx?displaylang=en
    But it is to check if the current operating system on my PC is valid. And I don't want to install first, before I checked.
    Thank you very much in advance!
    Best regards

    Original title: product key Windows 8

    If there was a website like this, it is very likely that someone he would use with randomly generated product keys until they have found one that has been reported as working.

    So I guess the answer is no, there is no site I know. The algorithm that determines if a product key is valid or not and to what version is a secret very jealously guarded for the reasons mentioned in paragraph 1.
    If you have a genuine product key card, it should show the version that it is intended to be used with.
