Bypass and Crack Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) Final Installation to Skip and Bypass WGA Genuine Windows Validation
Microsoft has released final version of Internet Explorer 7, the next generation of web browser with enhanced security and most-want features. Public can download IE7 full version installer via direct download link from Microsoft. However, when you try to install IE 7, there is a Windows Genuine Advantage WGA validation check for whether genuine Windows installed. If you for any reason failed the genuine Windows test, you can still install Internet Explorer 7, by making your Windows genuine so that everything will be WGA validated positive. If installation still unable to proceed, IE7 can still be installed by using several method including the previously known patched IECustom.dll method.
UPDATE: IE7 now totally free without validation
Download and install (by double click on .reg file contained in the zip file) the WPA registry hack, which modifies among others, the registry key entry of OOBETimer and LastWPAEventLogged at registry branch of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents, that will make your copy of Windows as is genuine and fully passed WPA (Windows Product Activation). After patching the registry, simply launch of installer of the IE7 to start the setup, by double clicking on the setup file downloaded from Microsoft. The trick works on 32-bit and 64-bit edition of IE7, and will allow users to access Microsoft (Windows) Update too. Else, use the following method.
- Download Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.
- Uninstall any existing previous version of IE7, including IE 7 RC1 or Beta version. To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 RC1, go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs, and remove “Windows Internet Explorer 7″. If you unable to see the listing of Windows Internet Explorer 7, run the following command to uninstall from Run of Start menu:%windir%\ie7\spuninst\spuninst.exe
To uninstall Internet Exxplorer 7 Beta 3, Beta 2, Beta 2 Preview, or Beta 1, go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs and remove “Internet Explorer 7 Beta 3″, “Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2″, or “Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview”. If you unable to see the listing of any version of Internet Explorer 7 in Add or Remove Programs window, select the Show Updates check box at the top of the Add or Remove Programs window, then search for “Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview” or “Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1″ under the section of Windows XP - Software Updates, and then remove the beta browser by clicking Change/Remove. If you still having problem to uninstall previous version of IE 7, visit IE7 release notes for more specific instructions and guides.
- Download the
crack for IE7 installer (IE7RC1_WGA_Crack.zip) or crack for IE7 installer (IE7_Final_WGA_Crack.zip)(direct link removed due to complaints from Microsoft) which contains IECustom.dll and Normaliz.dll. It’s the same patched version of IECustom.dll which is used to install IE7 RC1, and still can be used to install IE7 Gold edition to bypass any WGA validation. - Extract the zip file with cracks.
- Extract the setup file of IE7 by using WinRAR extraction tool.
- Copy the patched iecustom.dll to the Update folder of the extracted IE7 setup file. Overwrite any existing file.
- Run update.exe from the Update folder to start the IE7 installation setup. (Do not run iesetup.exe).
- At the end of the successful IE7 installation process, you will be asked to restart Windows, DO NOT RESTART Windows now! Click on the box ‘Do not restart now’ and then select the ‘Finish’ button.
- Run the update XmlLiteSetup.exe (Hotfix for Windows XP KB915865) to install or actualize the file xmllite.dll, otherwise there may be problems with menubars such as some items are missing or incomplete, or tabs is not working or not appearing.
- Run the update NlsDl.exe (Microsoft National Language Support Downlevel APIs).
- Run the update IdnDl.exe (Microsoft Internationalized Domain Names Mitigation APIs). This update will also install the normaliz.dll which is absolutely needed for Windows system restart, thus eliminating the need to manually copy the normaliz.dll (so you can ignore normaliz.dll contained in the crack zip file above).
- Restart the Windows.
- Enjoy Internet Explorer 7.
If you don’t want to run the setup files from step 9 - 11, simply copy the normaliz.dll from crack to /Windows/System32/ folder. This step is important to avoid system giving Normaliz.dll is missing error. If you prefer not to manually copy the normaliz.dll, download this archive (link removed due to Microsoft complaint) which when execute, will unpack the normaliz.dll and automatically copy the dll file to /Windows/System32/ folder. If you have problem such as missing tabs, run XmlLiteSetup.exe from the Update folder.
If you’re having problem with the steps above, try to start with step 9 - 11 first for installation of setup exe before executing update.exe, as suggested by Dus.
Note: As the iecustom.dll is from the RC1 release version, you may notice the different version number of IE 7 from the final version of 7.0.5730.11 during installation. However, the Internet Explorer 7 will be of valid ver 7.0.5730.11 once installed and viewed from About.

[...] Thirdly, if you are having problems installing Internet Explorer 7 (or any Windows updates) because of the Windows Genuine Advantage malware that Microsoft has forced upon us, then why not Bypass and Crack Internet Explorer 7 Genuine Windows Validation in style? [...]

Thanks for the instructions - worked perfectly for me using the extraction of files from the download of IE 7 and then the copying of the dll file into the update folder and running the update exe method then running the 3 exe’s and rebooting. The WPA reg thing also allowed me to get Windows updates, Windows Defender and WMP 11 - cheers for the effort!

Lets deal with these things in turn.
1 The WPA Registry Hack
The correct url for that - as in the article above - is
http://depositfiles.com/files/327845
I have just downloaded it - again - and had no trouble.
2 The IE7RC1 crack.
I have also just downloaded that and that also works. The correct url for that - as in the article above - is
http://depositfiles.com/files/346084
and not the url referred to in post 40.
That download site does not charge for downloads. But if the site is busy, there will be a delay on the page you go to to start with whilst a counter counts down. Once that has counted down, you are prompted to enter a code that is displayed, and you can then download the file.
If you are a paid up member of the site, then the delay does not apply. But they are not charging to download.

@ John
- it still doesn’t work for me;; kept getting the “bad request” thing;; tried it like 20x

I have just checked and the link for the WPA file did work.
Please note that on that service there is a delay timer which counts down once you get the page, but before the link appears. You then have to key in the security code (which is shown on the page) and then click download.

link for WPA registry hack doesn’t work? can someone be nice enough and upload it on some other file hosting place?
November 2nd, 2006 08:06
I have just installed ie7 on a pc that has XP SP2 and the 1.5.540.0 wga crack.
I used the crack on the link at instruction 3, and the IE7 from the direct MS link. I carefully followed instructions 1 to 13 and it all works. (Note that 10, 11, 12 and 13, wrongly show as 0, 1, 2 and 3.)
Most of the problems I have seen people having with this are where:
(a) they have run iesetup.exe at stage 7 even though they are told not to.
(b) they have re-started the computer at stage 8 even though they are told not to.
(c) they are not on the pc as an administrator
(d) they have not gone through stages 9, 10 and 11 properly.
(e) they have not replaced the dll in stage 6.

Gnerally speaking, if you successfully bypassed the wga check, and then have problems with installation, it is other issues. Take a look at the comments and solutions at
http://www.mydigitallife.info/2006/08/26/install-internet-explorer-7-release-candidate-1-ie7-rc1-without-genuine-windows-validation-crack/
to see if any of those matters are applicable.

Hi,
Same problems here. With both methods the install doesn’t work.
With Method 2) at least i get an Access denied Error during the install.
I use the German Version of the Setup.

I just coulndn’t do it. Tried several times. The patch seems to be able to bypass the validation process, but half
way the setup stalls and uninstalls whatever has done. Tried both ways, as described.
Thanks anyway for the effort!!

[...] The easiest way to install Windows Media Player 11, and as with Internet Explorer 7 final version, is to patch the Windows registry with WPA hack, as described in ways to bypass validation during installation in IE7 and in method 15 to crack and disable WGA validation and notifications in Windows. The trick insert WPA (Windows Product Activation) related activated value into registry to make the Windows as is genuine, licensed and legal. You can copy and paste the following text to a text file and save the file with .reg extension, then double click on it to merge the registry key into registry, or simply download the wpa_registry.rar or WindowsLicense.rar (both has same function) and execute the .reg file contained in the archive to apply the WPA registry setting. Download and install the Windows Media Player 11 once the registry is hacked. [...]

As regards message #27, disegard the second comment as it appears I may have been having trouble with proper internet access.
October 30th, 2006 06:34
As regards people reporting difficulty with tabs etc. that is most likely because you restarted windows at stage 8 above, even though you were told not to.
The link to download IE7RC1_WGA_Crack.zip no longer works. Does anyone have an alternative source for it?

[...] Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) is the latest next generation graphical web browser from Microsoft for Microsoft Windows series of operating system. IE7 features enhanced security framework, protection against phishing, deceptive or malicious software, full user control of ActiveX, various bug fixes, enhancements to support the web standards, improvements in HTML 4.01/CSS 2, tabbed browsing, tabs preview, tabs management, and web RSS feeds reader. Windows users can download Internet Explorer 7 directly from Microsoft Download Center (learn how to install IE7 bypassing Windows Genuine Advantage validation), and Microsoft will roll out IE7 via Automatic Updates as High Priority Updates (learn how to block and prevent automatic download and installation of IE7). LAPTOP Magazine reviews Internet Explorer 7 and also compares IE with FireFox, and comes to conclusion with rating of 4 out 5 that “in the grand battle between Firefox and IE, we think that IE has a bit of an edge in this release, although the Firefox 2 betas we have seen will catch it up a bit. Many of the things we like about Firefox have been implemented in IE7 and have been polished to be more streamlined and useful. For those of us who spend a lot of time researching and working on the Web, IE7 represents the best and most aggressive IE upgrade we’ve seen in a while.” [...]
