Wow, this is getting very frustrating! :)

I received a message that my PC already has this update when I downloaded it.

See if the MGADiag.exe program will work for you.  If it does post the report it gives.

I think the support from MS is supposed to be free for validation issues if Windows is genuine so you may want to go ahead and send them an email.  I assume you got your Windows already installed when you bought the PC?

I did have W7 pre-loaded on my PC when I bought it. I did check the Microsoft support page, before I started this topic here, and from what I understand I need a product key to get anything free. I don't think I received this product key because my PC was pre-loaded. If I did receive this key, I don't where to find it now.

The product key is usually on a sticker on the bottom of your PC.  However, the diag says your product is valid so open Computer and then System Properties.  If you scroll down to the bottom where it says Windows Activation you should see if it thinks it is valid and what product key it is using.

Ok, the bottom, under System Properties says Windows is activated and it does list a product key number.

However, this key does NOT match the one on the bottom of the PC.

 Looking at mine I may be mistaken as to the meaning of Product ID  

Does the info in Computer or on the sticker match Windows Product Key: *****-*****-73CQT-WMF7J-3Q6C9?

 

Since the diag say it passes but you say it fails I assume it has a popup telling you that it failed or ?

The two keys, diag and the one at the bottom of my PC, do NOT match. Yes, I get a pop up telling me that I have MS software that is not genuine.

This is what I get when I run the validation test from the link in the screen shot above:

Start, All Programs, Accessories, right click on Command Prompt and Run as Administrator.  Type:

net  start  sppsvc

Then hit Enter.  You should get one of the following results:

 

1.  The Software Protection service is starting.

The Software Protection service was started successfully.

 

 

2.  The requested service has already been started.

 
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2182.
 
This is the Software Protection Service which has to be running for validation.  If it is running then I have no more ideas other than to try validating with the key on the bottom of the PC.
 
I did find this:
 
Go in to Regedit:
 
 Right-click the registry key HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-20, and select Permissions...
3. If the NETWORK SERVICE is not present, click Add...
4. In Enter the object names to select type Network Service and then click Check Names and OK.
5. Select the NETWORK SERVICE and Grant Full Control and Read permissions.
6. Restart the computer.
7. After the restart, the system may require activation. Complete the activation.
 
 

 

 

 

There is a specific Microsoft forum for validation issues.  You might be better off posting there.

 

http://social.micros...genuinewindows7

 

They want a copy of your diag in your first post.

Try the win keyfinder:

 

Go to 

 

www.winkeyfinder.com/download/winkeyfinder/Winkeyfinder-Downloader/

 
Click on

 

Download Win Keyfinder 1.75

 

Find the file in the download and right click on it and Extract All.  Run WinKeyFinder175.exe by right clicking and Run As Admin.

 

That should show you the full key which I expect will match the one in the diag.  I would write that key down then try to validate the key on the bottom of your PC.  If it doesn't work you can put the old key back.

 

If that doesn't work then I think you need to post in the MS forum.

Also just got this from one of my colleagues:

The Licensing store on the user's system is corrupt; could be power fail / bad sector / bad write due to software glitch / who knows BUT the symptoms the user is experiencing is the exact I have seen many time because of this. This is the simplest way to fix this:
Recreate the Licensing Store
1) Click Start button.
2) Type: CMD.exe into the 'Search programs and files' field
3) Right-Click on CMD.exe and select Run as Administrator
4) Type: net  stop  sppsvc (It may ask you if you are sure, select yes)
Note: the Software Protection service may not be running, this is ok.
5) Type: cd  %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
6) Type: rename  tokens.dat  tokens.bad
7) Type: cd  %windir%\system32
8) Type: net  start  sppsvc
9) Type: slui.exe
10) After a couple of seconds Windows Activation dialog will appear. You may be asked to
re-activate and/or re-enter your product key or Activation may occur automatically.

Reboot and Post back with a new MGADiag report

I did the above (your colleague's tasks). After I did the reboot and MAGDiag, the report said the validation was genuine. However, it would not let me copy the report. I get an error message saying:

"Failed to create output files, hr = 0x80070002. Please contact support."

 

I ran MAGDiag a second time. Now I get the same Validation error number as in the last MAGDiag report and the same error message (above) pops up when I try to copy the report.

When I try to download Keyfinder 175, I get this error message:

 

You have downloaded this file 255 times in the last 24 hours, limit is 255.
Your file downloads total 262 in the last 24 hours, limit is 555.
Download Win Keyfinder 1.75
 
Sorry, your download limit has been reached for this file.

I, of course, have not downloaded this at all, let alone 255 times!
