Hazar · Oct 4, 2009

X64 bugfix

windows7cy · Oct 4, 2009

hazar if we rename all the files the files that you deny the permissions will work?

Hazar · Oct 4, 2009

No, windows will go into nag mode

windows7cy · Oct 4, 2009

is it better to deny all the permission for all the files to all users?

Hazar · Oct 4, 2009

Update:

windows update bugfix

windows7cy · Oct 4, 2009

hazar work on it

HotCarl · Oct 4, 2009

I was curious what the "32.exe" and "64.exe" do that are contained within the self-extracting archive do?

Rudi1 · Oct 4, 2009

I think that is the watermark remover

I fixed a bunch of errors. Minor typo in one of the services, removed duplicate take ownership of sppsvc.exe. Added taking ownership of all needed file, this fixes the down the road error of dll's not getting rename, in last step. Think I added a missing icacls command or two.

This batch file is R2 only. Could not determine what errors were real until I removed all the vista junk.

Code:


SET SYSPATH=%SYSTEMROOT%\System32

sc config sppuinotify start= Demand 
sc config sppsvc start= Demand

net stop sppuinotify 
net stop sppsvc

R2_Activation_Disabler

Click to expand...

I currently use Windows 2008 R2. Tommorow will install native localized polish edition. W would like to ask If I can use only power shell script or have to compile R2_Activation_Disabler.ps1 program? The reason why I don't want to use Disableactivation is when I use polish language pack under english R2 OS reboots when loads Local profile policy. I can run it only with Last good known configuration...

windows7cy · Oct 6, 2009

hazar is it better to deny all the premissions for all users of the windows activation files? and how i will do it?

alantlchan · Oct 6, 2009

Hazar,
Thank you very much for the disabler.
I would suggest to have an undo script, just in case.

7, R2, Vista and 08 activation disabler.
