I paid for this Home Premium Win7x64, I get all updates and have no problems but when I run the latest WGA tool it doesn't say "genuine", an older version of the WGAtool does say "Genuine" what could be causing this? Or does the validation code=0 mean genuine in this newest WGA tool ? It passes the geniune validation test and I can downlowd MSE, MS Live, etc. Diagnostic Report (1.9.0027.0): ----------------------------------------- Windows Validation Data--> Validation Code: 0 Cached Online Validation Code: 0x0 Windows Product Key: *****-*****-42PQ9-PW8W3-xxxx Windows Product Key Hash: 9VsYTFhS/lNRXpxxxxx/fpiH7uis= Windows Product ID: 00359-029-4855517-85120 Windows Product ID Type: 5 Windows License Type: Retail Windows OS version: 6.1.7600.2.00010300.0.0.003 ID: {0B996BB3-2FEA-416A-9467-6998A168913F}(3)
I once tried to make something simular as IR4 in vb.net, but stopped working on it cause there are enough apps. There I used wmi to see the activation status. When calling that wmi function it returns a number. 2 means windows is in grace period 1 means activated/genuine 5 or 0 means not activated and not in grace, which is non-genuine So if the validation code is the same number as what I used than it's indeed non-genuine. But to be sure you can download a program called "wmi explorer", fire it up (can take a while). Then select SoftwareLicensingProduct in the upper part, in the instances you can see several times "Windows(R) 7, Home Premium edition", select those one at a time. For 1 of those the licensestatus in the propperties plane should be 1, if that's the case you're genuine.
There is nothing wrong you are activated and genuine newer WGAtool does not say "Genuine" it does cause confusion. look at part of my report from older and newer version.
