I try to install from a CD of lightroom 6 on my win7 64 bit pc, but gets an error saying that windows vista is not supported?
Thanks a lot to point me in the right direction. I live in the Denmark and the Danish version of Win7 64, I was able to install from a CD LR6 after choosing not win 7 (was not available), but (if I remember) "no specific compatibility. After installation I clicked on LR6 and changed the favorite to Win7 program compatibility.

Installed the new drive hard and now I get a pop up that says that my windows is not genuine.
I upgraded my hard drive on my Dell Inspiron 1750. Now, I get a pop up that says that my windows is not genuine. But under the control of configuration\systeme and Security\System, it says my windows is activated. It is an OEM with Windows7 system House. Did that clone a new (bigger, 1 TB) hard disk and then install. In addition, windows update does not work now either. Said the service is not running.
You have installed RemoveWAT at some point in the past.
Now we must try to clear up the mess :(
Best way to fix it now (since we do not know what version of RemoveWAT served) is to run WATFix...
Download WATFix - make sure you click the link in the page, not the big shiny buttons! - and use it.
Then post back with another MGADiag report, and we will see what we can do.

I have a HP Pavilion laptop, which came with XP on it and XP key on the back sticker. However, when I bought it, it came with a free Vista Upgrade, that I used. Now several years later it says that my copy of Vista is not authentic, but I can't get the CD key to verify that the CD key is for XP, not Vista.
Any ideas of how to fix cela, or should I just try it backward on a XP machine with old code?
Thank you!

I recently bought the CC year subscription (pre-paid, student version if that helps). has worked on my laptop but now that I tried to install them on my desktop computer programs (PS, After Effects, animate and first so far) only appear as versions test, and when I try their license with my email ID Adobe said I have no subscriptions (while my full subscription details appear when I connect to my Adobe ID on the website).
I thought that a possible reason for this could be that I accidentally left my laptop on when installing the CC app on the desktop (like you are supposed to only use one device at a time), but nothing has changed even when I switched the laptop turned off and repeatedly connected to my Adobe ID on the desktop.
Would be great if someone could help me, thanks in advance!
