    Hello I installed Windows 7 Ultimate x86 and applied RemoveWAT and had it for around 2 week. So this service pack 1 got officially released. But before installing Service Pack 1, I restored RemoveWAT and then installed Service Pack 1. Than applied Windows Loader v1.9.7 by Daz. And after a few days I got this popup message saying. I got this message 2 or 3 times till now.


    Optional update delivery is not working

    You may be a victim of software counterfeiting.

    To use all Microsoft Windows features, such as all
    updates from Windows Update; get the latest updates;
    and receive product support, your copy of Microsoft
    Windows must be validated as genuine.

    Go online and resolve now


    Its means I'm not getting updates now, as long as what I know. What can i do prevent this pop-up to come again and start to get full Windows Update again. Please someone help, would really appreciate that. I haven't installed WAT Update (KB971033).

    Let me guess, you did not bother to repair the damage RemoveWat did BEFORE you installed Daz's loader did you? That will be your first thing you need to do.

    Uninstall the loader for the time being pull up a CMD prompt as Admin type in "sfc /scannow" without the quotes let it run if it still says you have errors then download and run WATFix from Daz's loader thread let that run it should reboot once it's finished. Then you can try the loader.

    I received the same message after installing SP1, I then read the loader's NFO and follow all instructions. No more popups.

    Bumping a dead thread?

    Anyhow, it is certainly possible for RemoveWAT to mess up a system that has a modded bios. :biggrin:
