Why does my windows 7 say I have to activate my licence key which i already done weeks ago, all the keys are the same anyways whats up with that. its a free evaluation copy, why with all the "u have 26days left to activate windows C*@#" It has done this to 3 other people I know who have their own keys but then they generate over anyway some of the keys are all the same... :confused:
 
Not sure then to be honest, what happens when you click Activate Now?

If that doesn't work, you can extend the activation by using the following process:

1) Type cmd into the Start Menu Search
2) Right click the cmd icon and choose “Run as Administrator”
3) Type slmgr.vbs -rearm then press Enter
4) You will then be asked to reboot. After that, right click Computer, then select Properties. You’ll see that the counter has been reset to 30 days.

Pays to do this when there is 1 or 2 days left as you can only do it 3 times.

Many of the RC keys are the same, I think it was just a set of 5 or so and each one was given out randomly.
 
Win7 RC has told me on 2 occasions ( once on gaming system, the other on laptop ) that my system is not genuine - both keys were sent via email from MS. So that completely lost me. Click Ok and everything works fine :S
 
My dad had this, and he just clicked ok, restarted and everything was fine, never happened since, the same happend on my girlfriends laptop like above, click ok and everything is fine.
 
Daz87uk,

Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 RC Support Forum. It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to check the threads available there for additional assistance and feedback.
