omg, people still use that awrful program? no offence but get a free anti virus app. Like Avast or Avira, Norton is a terrible piece of software, always has been and always will be. Kill it now!
[Hazar] , can you please make available a 'readme' file separately to the RWAT exe that we curious may peruse thru? I am currently curious as to RWAT's significant increase in size (v2.1 was 244kb zipped, vs v2.24 which is a 3743kb exe), and what all the extra features do/undo/fix etc. Thanks muchly!
Not a good idea IMO as i'm sure the Microsoft bots scan this thread looking for how he does it. I would rather he keep that info to himself.
LMFAO not real name on the forums please. The increase in size is down to the new packed user32.dll's instead of just editing the watermark MUI
I used v2.1 about 3 months to remove WAT and worked perfectly! I have now downloaded v2.2.4 and ran it. But I can only choose the remove WAT option and other is greyed out. What should I do?
Nope I applied 2.2.2 on top of 2.2.0 because the Restore option was greyed out. I guess that screwed up everything. Fortunately I had 2.1.3 which still had the Restore option so I ran that. Then I ran 2.2.4 and everything worked fine including your Genuine fix. Then I tried running 2.2.4 the Restore option is there. In short, no more problems. Thanks Hazar and secr9tos.
Hi I have used removewat2.1 to remove the wga, been working a treat for the past month. Today I have started to see nag screens saying that windows is not genuine. Whats my best course of action to fix this Thanks
Hazar, nice work, as pretty always, but... is that so hard to modify just the First Line in your OP adding there what's actually the version for the d/ling Link ? It's surely interesting to have the same Link to d/l it, but modifying a Line in that Line it's just a 3 seconds time-consuming operation... and people will always know if they've the last revision just by reading the first line of the OP... Don't you agree ?!?
Installed the latest WAT. Then eradicated with RemoveWAT. Working great as per usual. Thank you Hazar. LoL
So wait, uninstalling the wat update normally doesn't get rid of it? I installed it and I was still genuine but decided to get rid of it just in case. So do I need the removewat22 or not? I used another one called watvaccine but I have no idea if it worked or not since the window closes so fast. Thanks
I've used three versions now, 2.0, 2.2, and 2.2.4. Each time I have not been able to restore WAT with the new version. I have had to restore WAT with the in-use version, then remove WAT with the new version.
I did a remake of SetupComplete.cmd in the unattend W7 and with success. The patch works but there is a minor watermark nag, .... dissapears after a while (not genuine - in right bottom corner). Will try to combine the WAT patch with the "Remove Watermark, V0_8, Build 20090509" The question is: Which one must be applied first? I want to put the 2 patches in one executable sfx rar. Please tell me if there are unexpected problems doing so.
