    Isnt that a RC / trial version? Apparently, remove WAT isnt meant for RC versions. However, Im running 7100 RC on one of my machines without any problems so far, fingers xd

    Same here, if its not giving problems I wouldnt worry for now.

    Only time will tell for sure

    If you want to upgrade from a RC/ trial version to the Retail release you need to run a clean install I believe.

    I downloaded it because I can get 32bit and 64bit for free. And I mainly wanted more features in Windows. I now need to burn it to a DVD so I can have my own copy of Windows 7 instead of using the disk that is my parents

    ^ Yes, but IMO not something we should be flaunting about on the general internet.

    Tank you!

    Thanks hazar! Woke this morning to find that Santa Gates had paid me a visit, ran you your tool and now back up and running pre-update. turning updates off now!

    Quick question will i still be able to update manually or will i be blocked and what happens 90 days from now, will i have to rerun if they sneak it past me again?

    They lurk in dark places!

    Then something went horribly wrong. Reinstall Windows, download latest one, apply.

    Why take any MS updates?

    Thanks, Hazar! I just installed RemoveWAT, which erased a lot of aggravation from nag screens (demo expired).

    Hi, everyone else!

    I'm just another stupid noob, but after following this thread, and all the tales of woe from those who have installed Microsoft updates, I truly wonder how many know first-hand what happens when you just reject all updates from Microsoft. This may sound insane, but with Microsoft having made it so plain to see that it has Microsoft's, and only Microsoft's interest in mind, maybe the rest of the world really can keep your computer safe and working without any further dealings with The Man.

    I haven't installed one single update from Microsoft, but I keep my third-party firewall and anti-malware up-to-date. After about 10 months, Windows 7 is still the fastest, and most stable OS I have ever used, including Ubuntu. I use my system for everything from posting in forums like these to editing graphics, media files, and burning p2p downloads - no problems so far.

    Does anybody know for sure why I may really need any updates from Microsoft, which no trustworthy third parties can provide as good or better?

    Hi. Me and my friend used this tool about one week ago on RC 7100. It removed all activation notifications (in Computer properties section and watermark on desktop). There was no problems until today. My friend, who is in south korea started experiencing 2-hour-restarts early today, then my (Eastern Europe) notebook also started to restart every 2 hours. I expected other people to write here, but it seems like it hasn't yet started in US (because of the time difference I guess), or maybe it is a problem with RC only.
    Anyway, to cut it short, right now it seems like this removeWAT is not working, at least not for RC 7100. We are looking for some other solution, without success so far.

    @Hazar:
    You have a new version of RemoveWAT from today in posting #1.
    The file has the same size (6.663.680 Bytes), but compare shows, that the file is different from v2.2.5.

    You packed it TWO times, but forgot the ending .ZIP in the depacked first archive.
    Are you drunk? :cool:

    A petition:
    Can you write the correct actual version number into your posting #1?
