    @Josh Cell

    Thanks for your great tool. BTW, Would you mind if you tell me the way how I can back up the serial ( Product Key ) manually ?

    Thanks again.

    Well, you have to use a specific code of their language to decrypt key in the registry ...

    Josh - Thanks for this great tool!!!

    I am having a problem trying to restore activation on my Acer Aspire x64 (factory activated). The keys were backed up correctly and restored after a clean install. The restore process went without any errors... but windows is not activated. SLIC toolkit says "No OEM certificate found". Any ideas?

    Thanks! :cheers:

    Everything indicates that the sppsvc service wasn't disabled

    Click the Start button, type in the search bar, CMD and click Run as Administrator

    put this commands Without quotes

    Code:
    "NET STOP SPPSVC"

"SC STOP SPPSVC"
    Run again and restore activation

    Please reply now...

    Your product key is shown correctly at open Backup\Serial.txt backup?

    What version of your operating system, x86 or x64?

    Yes, the key is showing showing up correctly.

    I am using x64 home premium. On the second try, it showed as activated; now after restart, it has reverted back to "Not activated:" :(

    Josh -
    Do I have to start from the beginning for this to work? I tried the new version; before the restart, everything was fine, but after that, activation status was reset back to "not activated".

    I can restore the system to factory and give it a try..

    Thanks!

    Is there a problem with the certificate running SLIC Toolkit?

    After the reboot, SLIC toolkit reports that the certificate is not found. Tokens.data is in the correct folder. Just before the reboot, SLIC can recognizes it though.

    The original OEM certificate backed up by SLIC toolkit is different from the certificate extracted by 7Tokens. I am confused :confused:

    Tokens.dat, contains most of the Windows activation files including Digital Certificate, they all have a signature hardware, which prevents the use in other machines

    The backup was been replaced, because return codes improvements, which gives the error if there were problems of replace

    Try entering this command, and restart

    Code:
    slmgr -rilc
    *Make sure that the installed version is the same that was backed up, including the architecture.
