Unregister key?

I upgraded my computer windows vista to 7, and now I want to install my old vista on a new computer. The product key will be always associated with my old computer and if so is it possible to do it?

Thank you

You need a version active AND current Vista to upgrade to Windows 7.

If this is not enabled, you can not use it as part of an upgrade.

Re-read my answer 1 re transfer of licenses and the license TYPE: OEM or retail...

You don't say what Vista license you have.

Read the info on your driver's license.

See you soon.

  • Unregistered product key Windows XP Reinstall

    I've had my Alienware computer for almost 5 years now. Through many battles, I had to wipe my HD and reinstall using my CD of Alienware. He has never asked for the activation of Windows XP before. The CD says Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 Recovery DVD - ROM system. Here is what happened:

    After only a few charts issued (black white screens) I did some touch ups to the computer.

    This morning I put all the original components and it started normally.

    I restarted later in the day and suddenly it won't let me log into windows and indicates to activate. My internet is not detected so I tried the phone option 3 times. Whenever he me relaying the entire code and then told me to go to my manufacturer.

    I get out the Alienware CD and and continue to delete my partition and install a fresh Windows XP. It's using the same disc I used for years, on the same computer, with original parts provided.

    After installation I started to recharge my programs and I noticed something in the right hand taks bar indicating I have 30 days to activate my Windows... great...

    After that some programs are installed, I reboot. Everything works and connects on the property. I have install even more and I update the date and time (he said Jan, 2006) and restart again. And well, it is where I am now.

    Again once my computer is not letting me log on without having to activate my version of windows xp. This time, however, it is recognizing my internet and now it shows me my product key and said the KEY of the PRODUCT NOT AUTHORIZED. I searched high and low on my CD and the computer documentation (always carefully in the original binding) and on the computer itself (inside, outside, up and down) and it has nothing to do with a sticker or product on that same key.

    Why is it now, after almost 5 years, asking for activation? Why my old key does not work? Why does the phone option work? Can Microsoft tell me a valid key?

    I appreciate the help.

  • Combine events "Key Down" and "ValueChange?

    Hello

    I have a string control box where a bar code is entered. I want to discover two events that should trigger the same action:

    Event 1: Loss of Focus (= change value)

    For example, someone focuses on the channel control unit and changes a number, and then puts the focus (without pressing). At the time where the focus is more, this event is raised.

    Case 2: Enter"" key.

    In any time you press the key "enter" in the area of control of chain. I can filter Vcle to check whether or not it is the "enter" key. For example, a user could bring out the code bar and press ENTER to specify the barcode must remain unchanged.

    My problem is, I need to trigger the two events, but only once.

    If I have two events separate case, 2 event will raise also 1 event, so my action will be spooled twice. Not good.

    I'm not yet sure how to combine two cases of event in a unique event, which triggers only once on 'enter keypress' or "lost focus, change the alias value". Any suggestions?

    See below. Thank you!

    Switch to dynamically registered events:

    Note that you must pass the dynamic events in the event sources list:

    Then, after each event, unregister and then register again for events.  If there was an event in the queue's duplicate, this will destroy it.

  • How to unregister / disable a windows installation

    Hi all

    I am facing some problem in the activation of Windows XP on my laptop. Well, here's my problem; I bought a Dell laptop about 3 years ago and I had received an original copy of Windows XP is installed on this computer. Now, a few weeks ago, this laptop have met with an accident and practically collapsed. Yesterday, I bought a new laptop and don't buy any new OS as I have the original CD of XP from Dell, but when I installed and tried to activate it. It gives me an error because this product key is not valid. Can anyone guide me regarding is it possible to unregister or disable my original installation of the Microsoft database, while when I enter the product key for this new facility, the system will accept it? Ask your assistance in this matter.

    Kind regards

    Amitsinh Thakur

    You cannot use a Dell Windows XP CD for resettlement and the license for installation on one computer other than Dell.  You will need to purchase a new license of Windows XP.  Examples:

    Microsoft Windows XP Professional - OEM

    Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition - OEM

  • get an error not registered but what key to type in my Ontario Regulation does not work.

    the computer came with windows ultimate, but I started getting a message "unregistered error" lately.  When I type in the key of the Ontario Regulation has failed and that's when I realized that I have received the software for vista Home premium instead.  I perfectly agree with the version Home premium but ultimate don't change...

    I'm sorry, but you need to reinstall the right edition of Vista.

    You cannot change the versions of Vista by changing only a product key in the version installed.

  • Upgrade Windows 7 to 10 with unrecognized product key

    Hello all,.

    I have a laptop Sony VIAO that works on Win7. My daughter has downloaded a virus that crashed the machine. As it is now a common practice, there was no disk Windows backup software to restore my computer. I received a copy of Win7 to a friend - Yes, he is not saved, because it does not accept my previous product key. I decided to upgrade to Win10, but it's always the same question - does not accept my product Code. Is there any hope, or am I condemned to stay with my laptop "unregistered" under Win7?

    Thank you!

    Sorry for my delay in answering all of the help I received. I could finally work on my computer a few days ago & still had trouble, until I reread the instructions & engraved Win10 on a disk image. Then he allowed me to use my product key of my original Win 7 software Code to load the new operating system. Thank you once again, JW & Andre!

  • Product key is not valid after the re - install Windows 7.

    Original title: assistance required with Activation.

    Separated from this thread.

    I have the same question by looking at the subject of this thread.  I'll explain my problem.  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L670, which has Windows 7 above.  In order to run a specific program, it called for Windows 7 Professional, got the unlocked key this portion ran the program without problems so far.

    Recently ran a upgrade to Windows 8 problem, someone else has started to use the major problems of the computer.  Has decided to restore the computer to Windows 7.  Entered product key codes, but the computer is showing the products are not authentic.  I have the key for Windows 7 and Windows 7 Pro unlock codes, but it contains the code of the key is not genuine.  Suggestions?

    Here are my options in terms of original software for this software:

    1. He is currently a Windows 7, which came with the computer - tell me how to remove the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro
    2. I have an upgrade to Windows 7 Pro key - work not
    3. I have an unregistered Windows 8 upgrade that, I uninstalled it due to the update of loop that drove me crazy

    Thanks in advance

    Use your Tosh recovery disks, starting from them and reinstall win7 as pre-installed by Tosh.

    PS It would be quite unusual for a program to require a specific version of win7, what is this program?

  • checking CD key for upgrade of windows 7 32-bit windows XP

    I've upgraded from windows XP to windows 7 32 bit and during the installation I put in the CD key but its still saying its unregistered. How can I fix this problem its saying that I need to buy windows 7 again. is there a place where I can just enter the CD key and solve all these problems?

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • After the abandonment of closing down in Win8, things like media keys becomes disabled.

    Is there anyway you can update the shutdown process to make sure that things like the trackpad on a computer laptop and key functions of the media continue to run until the stop has been verified? I noticed that for example an unregistered document may stop the process stop, great if I want to continue to work and function reminded me something that was open, but not too great to have a much gone important processes.

    Thanks for your time

    There is no way to do what you ask for.  Capabilities for things like your multimedia keys come from a software that runs on your computer.  It is a program of live, running, just like your email, browser, calculator, or photoshop.

    This software runs as a service (this is why you can't see most of the time), but certain services also (but don't) provide icons down by the clock.

    When you shut down your computer, all programs running gets asked out.  Windows waits a few seconds for them to finish out, then stop the operating system.

    When you stop, it's as if you were to right-click and get out your keys from the media programme of the taskbar icon (if she has a). Is no longer running the program, and may not listen to push you your buttons on media more. He went.  Just as you can't keep photo editing after the closure of photoshop.

    Of course, you can open the program again.  And you are free to do so (if you know where your multimedia keyboard company stores the program file).  Or you could re - initialize the manner in which it was designed: to restarting your computer.

  • Renowned guest VM in unregistered VC, the directory/files on LUNS not eponymous.  Impossible to find.

    Hi all

    I'm trying to find a guest I was trying to move to our new VC and 3.5 environment.  I have unregistered the old VC and went to re-register is another from the LUN, but it seems that the files were named something completely different.  Is there anyway to search for an IP address or something like that to find which machine it is?

    Thank you.

    You can actually search all files .vmx under a certain VMFS volume or all to search for your VM specific and as noted, if you have something specific like VM name, MAC, etc., you will be able to search for the string with the .vmx file.

    Here are two examples:

    (1) you know the MAC

    [root@everest ~]# for VM in $(find /vmfs/volumes/everest-local-storage/ -iname *.vmx); do grep -i "00:50:56:99:52:7b" "${VM}"; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "${VM}";fi; done
    
    ethernet2.generatedAddress = "00:50:56:99:52:7b"
    /vmfs/volumes/everest-local-storage/thegeneral/thegeneral.vmx
    

    (2) you know the VM name

    [root@everest ~]# for VM in $(find /vmfs/volumes/ -iname *.vmx); do grep -i "thegeneral" "${VM}"; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "${VM}";fi; done
    
    nvram = "thegeneral.nvram"
    displayName = "thegeneral"
    extendedConfigFile = "thegeneral.vmxf"
    scsi0:0.fileName = "thegeneral.vmdk"
    /vmfs/volumes/49a096cf-9f0ae95f-f80a-001f29c7b048/thegeneral/thegeneral.vmx
    

    Do not forget to provide the VMFS volume in the param to find or update the name of your virtual machine or whatever it is that is stored in the .vmx that you can key off of specifically.

  • Speeches and a .key file cannot be opened

    I'm unable to open or work on Keynote documents. I get an error popup image that says: cannot open 'FILE.key' because it is not a valid document to Keynote. I'm assuming that the same problem will occur in numbers and pages so I have not used either of these programs in a very long time so I do not have a file to test on.

    I know that the file is indeed a valid Keynote document. I recently had to reinstall my package iWork 09 since the original software discs - I have them have not purchased through the App store or my iCloud account. I have a software key. I can't move my OS to Sierra right now because I have other software that I use for work and tech support as we said we cannot go immediately. My current OS is El Capitan 10.11.6, and I have a MacBook Pro 15 "retina.

    Any advice on obtaining Keynote works again until I can make the upgrade to Sierra?

    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds like you are trying use Keynote 09 to open a file created by Keynote 6.

    Keynote 09 cannot open files of version 6 because they are a different file format.

    If this is the case, buy and install Keynote 6 from the Mac App Store.

  • How to find the key

    Is there a quick way to find the key of a song or instrumental that has been imported to the logic?

    No, you need a little music for this. I guess you could find it difficult to play with a keyboard and hear/guess the agreements/key?

    Here would be my suggestion for a workaround - if it is an entire song, as you indicate in your question:

    -To get agreements on a Web site

    -See if you can find the original version of keys (that would be easy, right?)

    - Then play these chords along your song imported. If they sound not right, transpose your up and down by steps MIDI track until it sounds right. -> Get your agreements and the key.

    If your song doesn't have agreements to seek, find parts of the song where you lift clear of bass notes (not too much battery), EQ everything, taking Tuner in pop in the track and see if you can pick up the dominant notes. That should lead you to your key of song.
