Windows 7 license expires?

Hello

I've heard that's allowed expires after one year after activation of windows 7, and then customers must buy a new product key to continue to use windows 7. Is it true or is it just a rumor?

Thanks in advance.

  • Terminal Server license EXPIRING under Advanced Server 2000 Services

    We will be upgrading to a new server (using windows Server2008) S/W & hardware with a new provider in the next 6 months. However, we need to use Terminal Server services for the next 6 months on our current Server 2000 advance server until we have transitional...

    We just started having this message when logging in remotely: "your Server Terminal services temporary client license will expire in 13 days. Please contact your system administrator to get a permanent license. »

    Although advanced server 2000 is not supported, we need to access the remote server for about 6 months until we do the transition...  We are a very small medical office and if we cannot access the server remotely, we are in big trouble! Our doctor S/W is old and is no longer sold or taken in charge by the seller.  We were told that it would not go on the latest server software that is available.

    Is it possible to temporarily reactivate (period 6 months) the license for Terminal Server services?  I thought we had a permanent license and have never seen this message before. My guess it is initially set to expire at that time.

    Is there something we can do?  Registry editing? Y at - it another software that we could use instead of the Terminal services Server to temporarily access the Advanced server 2000 remotely, once the Terminal Server services license expires? Can we buy a license 'enewal"for a period of 6 months/1 year until we have to transition?

    I hope someone can help us, any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Qty 9 Vista > Windows 7 licenses

    How can I get Qty 9 Windows 7 licenses for Vista OEM computers & detail 9?

    I have 9 computers running genuine Vista Home Premium (32-bit 5, 4 64 bit) licensed. I need to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. (A clean install is ok if a place in the upgrade is not an option). I did Digital River 32 - bit and 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium discs. So I think that I now only need Windows 7 Home Premium licenses?

    Most of the computers are OEM (HP, Dell) but 3 computers had installed retail Windows (non OEM) and 1 was an upgrade on the spot of XP to Vista. Will be the licenses that I find work any installation of Vista was already installed? I am not concerned by the assumption, only the licenses that I get to be recognized and authenticated during the installation.

    What would be the best (cheapest) way for me to get the licenses I need? I prefer not to buy physical media of retail packages that sell usually for $90 - $99 which is almost $1,000 and they are all old computers. I found a place online selling 'Download only' licenses for $55, which seems to be a reasonable investment to keep these computers going a few more years. I've never bought only before licenses. Is a reasonable price of $55, or is there a way easier, cheaper or better? How much would be volume licensing become an option?

    Finally, if I do a fresh install can I take the 32-bit Vista systems and make all 7 computer 64-bit Windows systems by installing simply with the 64-bit key? This way I could end up with 9 computers all running Windows 7 64 bit that would make things a little easier.

    Last question: a license of Windows 7 can be used to install Windows 7 on a computer that was originally XP? Currently, the computer in question has no OS installed but has a valid XP COA sticker and installation disk original XP (Dell OEM XP SP2 "Reinstall operating system drive").

    Thank you for answering my questions of license.

    You know what this site is selling? MSDN/TechNet licenses:

    On MSDN or TechNet product key

    They are genuine Microsoft product keys, they are in fact retail licenses, but it is expected for a product specific Microsoft Software Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet channel for professionals who pay a subscription. The main objective is for evaluation purposes. The big thing to their subject, unlike Microsoft, MSDN or TechNet keys evaluation software expires. Because the agreement by virtue of which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Although its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only for use and no one else. Unfortunately, no matter the conditions of license, people still abuse of the program, two key product gift or sell on auction sites. Microsoft it issues licences in good faith that customer will not do it, but I guess human nature win on.

    In your case, what can happen, you buy a MSDN license key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike packed full of retail licenses which carry 1 activation. The person who sells you probably eventually sold to 10 other people. Somewhere along the way, one of these people could have installed on a second system activated, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft has detected that he was abused and blocked the key for later use.

  • License expired Message Server

    After starting MAC OS Server 5.2 websites and create a new Web site (actually a mirror of an existing site of very simple server implementation) I open Safari and try the URL and I get the message:

    Please ask your server administrator to install the license.

    If you are the administrator, please connect to the administration.

    The Web site service is set to point to the static IP address of my Mac - Pro running MAC OS Server. All files are in place. If I use https://aaa-macpro.local/default , I see the default Web site.

    But if I try to arroyohome.com which is the URL of my Web site which is set to point to the static address of the Mac - Pro MAX OS Server operation you get this server license expired Message. I do not use certificates at this stage

    The problem is resolved. I uninstalled MAC OS Server and started from scratch. After making sure that I was the only person in my network and also by ensuring that the server created a DNS entry for my server, I made the tutorial on websites (Lesson 1) and tested that the default Web sites are created correctly and that everything started working.

    BTW, the server license expiration message was / is incorrect. Browsers were all complaining about certificates and refusing to accept the ones I created. Expired "500 Server license" error is a catch-all message. The site that I am hosting is not encrypted, but MAC OS Server encrypts the default Web site on port 80, which may () caused a lot of questions because I was deploy my site. On lesson 2

    Step 7. Check the redirection to the secure site

    I disabled this function for my deployed site...

  • Satellite U940 - 12 c: Windows 8 license code?

    Hello.

    I own a Toshiba Satellite U940 - 12 c. Due to a sequence of horrific circumstances, I'm done with a laptop without Windows 8 and without access to the recovery partition. If there is no idea of how to make to access these data recovery, please tell me.

    But the question is: How can I get my copy of Notepad of Windows 8 license code? Is it possible?

    Thank you and goodbye.

    If you can access the recovery partition on ordinary road, there is no other way to do and saved on your laptop recovery image is useless. It is a pity that you n t have created a recovery media that could be used for a clean install of Win8.

    Maybe you don't believe this, but the license key is also useless and cannot be used for a clean install of Windows. This code is part of the original pre-installed version you got with your laptop.

    Best option for you is to order the original recovery disk and use it for Win8 installed. You can order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • appellants informed me windows guarantee has expired, said my computer was about to crash and they controlled my computer outside, some icons began to disappear on the desktop. I turned off the computer.

    2 people called me on my home phone, told me that they were Microsoft Windows, that I got error report to Microsoft from my computer and they went into my computer remotely and was told that they could fix.   They said that my Windows guarantee had expired (on a less than 1 year old computer) and wanted to sell me a 1 year for $ 25 years more more money.   I told them that I need to check.    Less than 10 minutes passed and another call.  It's when they said my computer was crashing.   I told them it was covered by insurance, they hung up.   I haven't lost a few programs but nothing that I can't live.   They have external access to my computer.   First thing I had to do was press on keyboard and the letter r windows icon as it took me to a Web site called showmypc.com.   These people really represent Windows - Microsoft?   If this isn't the case, who should I report it to?  They also originally (before I have them checked) gave me a call back number in case I changed my mind.   1800 651-2595 but told me it would cost me 125.00.

  • Windows 98 license number

    can anyone answer me on this issue of license? My application needed to run on windows 98, but because Windows 98 is selling to the market, can we just install to use it without buying any license? or can buy us Windows 7 license, then install Windows 7 and Windows 98 together? Or how to fix this?

    Hello Ming21

    You cannot install Windows 98 without a product key and the key for Windows 7 will not work under Windows 98. However, you can use the compatibility mode to try to get apps for Windows 98 work under Windows 7. View the links below to understand how.

  • License expired

    I have a user who has installed LabWindows/CVI 8.1 as an eval edition and never put to the top of the License Manager to point to our license server. When the eval license expires, we tried to connect to the server, but we can't run.

    In the License Manager, we can see the license server and we can see that there are licenses available (2 of 6 are used). Here are the local eval license, which is marked as expired, with the red triangle. When it tries to start LabWindows, he gets the following error.

    License attempt 1:

    All the available licenses on 'DLSWIN1:27010' are currently extracted. (NILM13)

    If you have any questions, contact your license administrator.

    License attempt 2:

    The requested license is not available on this computer. (NILM16)

    Any ideas?

    The name of the computer that is configured on the server was slightly different from what it is on the PC. Sets the name and now everything works.

  • Windows XP license for home computers

    If an individual has Windows XP on a computer at home, and they get a second computer for use in their home, can I use the Windows XP license from their original computer to install XP on their second computer? Or should they buy a second copy of Windows XP for use at home?

    If you have a version of Windows XP OEM (the one that came with a new computer), you can only install it on this computer.

    If you have a retail version of Windows XP, you can remove a computer and install it on another computer.

    If you want Windows XP on both computers, you must purchase a second copy.

  • Licenses expiring without apparent reason

    Hello

    Would there be a change to a customer that would cause the license expires.
    I have several opportunities where our users raise calls for their license numbers they get errors that the keys have expired.
    In most cases, seized the same license that they had initially solves the problem. As I expect, because they are a time by client licenses.
    I can't find any obvious changes to the customer that causes the licenses that appear as expired and that require re-registration. That is the machine removed reconstructions or change the entries to registry etc...

    Is there something that I am on here?

    Apply updates registry software to the machine or the application of new security policies would cause problems with RemoteScan licenses that need to be registered?

    There is no change on the side of client RemoteScan which would have an effect on the record at all. In such cases, it is more likely that the user does not have permissions to write to the registry on the scan station. When the release button is typed in, and then the user hits 'save', it will try to write the unlock key to the registry, but if the user does not have permissions to do you will encounter problems similar to what you describe.

    Of course, if you don't have the piece of software make changes to the registry it could also be the culprit.

    Thank you

  • UEFI and Windows 10 licenses

    I have read that with UEFI system, Windows 10 licenses are hardcoded in the UEFI firmware. This means that if I format my drive, wipe my recovery partitions and install 10 Windows from a USB key (assuming that it is not a recovery of my own drive machine, but an image downloaded from Windows written on it) it will be automatically validated and I'll have a legal installation?

    Hello

    If this is the same operating system supplied with the computer, it should work. It will go through a normal installation of Windows without having to request the license key.
