Download Microsoft Software from Download Center Bypass and Without Genuine Windows Validation

In a bid to protect Microsoft software from illegal piracy and counterfeiting, Microsoft has started Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) program. One aspect of WGA is that several popular software and downloads available for free from Microsoft have been protected with WGA and required genuine Windows validation before users can download the software from Microsoft Download Center. These software includes Windows Defender (Beta 2), DirectX End-User Runtime, Internet Explorer 7 RC1 (Windows XP SP2), Windows Media Player 10, DirectX 9.0c End-User Runtime, Photo Story 3, Windows Installer 3.1 Redistributable and etc that marked with WGA iconicon. If your validation check is failed then you won’t be able to download the files.

Several crack, hack and bypass methods have been found in order to skip the Windows validation check when downloading from Microsoft Download Center. Now there is additional method found by gHacks where you’re able to download all WGA-protected free download software and downloadable files from Microsoft without going through or simply bypass the genuine Windows validation check. The method involves using Microsoft Genuine Validation Diagnostic Tool program MGADiag.exe.

  1. Download MGADiag.exe from Microsoft.
  2. Run the MGADiag.exe
  3. Under the first tab (Windows tab), check for the value of Download Center Code which consists of 7 upper-case characters or numeric digits.
  4. Go to the download details page of the software you want to download. The download details page will ask you to click Continue (Validation Required) in order to begin Windows validation.
  5. Append the following text to the download details page’s URL (at the end of the URL) at the Address bar, without quotation marks:

    &Hash=“Download Center Code”

    For example: &Hash=X8X88XX

  6. Press Enter.
  7. You will then be shown the download details page with Download button where description said click Download to download the Genuine Microsoft Software, instead of Continue button. Click Download to download the WGA-protected download.

However, the above method is valid for downloading of software from Microsoft only, and most installer or setup files will have secondary WGA validation check during installation, where you will need more hack or crack tools.

Update: This hack and workaround no longer works. Try to use direct download links or various Genuine Windows Advantage cracks and patches.

    I have found the sure way to bypass the validation process when trying to update or install IE7. My head was spinning from all the blogs on how to do this. My product number was changed at a repair shop without my knowledge. I was very upset after paying a lot of money for my computer to find out my windows XP pro was not genuine. This really works and took about one minute to do. I found this on another blog site called RFUZ. com. I figured I would give it try and Bingo.This was as easy as it gets folks. This will stop your worries. This will allow you to bypass the Microsoft Genuine Validation thingy

    this method works better than many others i’ve tried before. forget the cracks and injectors etc… this is the BEST WAY:

    1) start > run > “regedit” (without the quotes of course)

    2) go to the key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents\OOBETimer

    …and doubleclick on it. Then change some of the value data to ANYTHING ELSE…delete some, add some letters, I don’t care…just change it!

    now close out regedit.

    3) go to start > run > “%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a” (again, dont type the quotes)

    4) the activation screen will come up, click on register over telephone, then click on CHANGE PRODUCT KEY, enter in this key: JG28K-H9Q7X-BH6W4-3PDCQ-6XBFJ.

    Now you can dl all the updates without activating, and the Genuine Microsoft Validation thingy won’t bug you no more!!

    ***Notes, this works best after a reformmat***
    . It worked to my amazment.

    Previously I had little trouble with this annoying update. Using the automatic update feature, I would right-click and do a custum install on the updates, making sure to check as needed to avoid and not be notified again as to the Windows Validation Update installation. Unfortunately, the update is now encrypted as part of another update. After a recent windows installation, I was using the auto-update feature, and after reviewing the updates (numbering 15), I went ahead and installed them. The 15 updates turned out to be 58 separate updates, including KB905474. Bill Gates can go to hell, and Adobe 7 sucks as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
