Permanent Method to Crack WGA and Patch Windows XP (inc MCE) or 2003 as Genuine
There is a lot of cracks or patches or fixes that aims to bypass or skip Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) validation process, or trick the WGA validation results to be always genuine. However, these workarounds do not address the fundamental issue of the problem - that’s the product CD key or volume license key (VLK) registered in your copy of Windows XP, Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) and Windows Server 2003 is invalid or has been blocked or banned by Microsoft. The following ultimate WGA Patcher Permanent Kit with cracks and procedures all-in-one package will convert and transform the pirated Windows operating system into genuine and legitimate OS when validate by Microsoft’s WGA, by changing the serial number, product key or VLK of the Windows with a valid CD key, and when necessary, apply patch.
- Download
WGA Patcher Permanent Kit (WPatcherP5575987.zip)(link removed due to complaint from Microsoft) orGenuineWindowsPatcher.zip(download removed due to complaint from Microsoft) which contains Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder v1.51 (keyfinder.exe), Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostics Tool 1.5.0717.0 (MGADiag.exe), wga-hosts-fix 0.1 (wga-fix.exe), and Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 VLK key generator (MSKey.exe or Windows XP Keygen.exe). - Extract the zip file.
- Run the Windows XP/2003 key generator (MSKey.exe or Windows XP Keygen.exe).
- In the key generator, under the Product Family, select “Windows XP Pro. VLK”, and click the “Generate” button to generate a valid and genuine serial key for Windows XP (choose Windows Server 2003 VLK for Windows 2003). If key generator doesn’t work, try to find a product key on web.
- Note down the product key or serial that is generated (can leave the program opens). The idea is to get VLK key that yet to be blocked or unknown to Microsoft.
- Execute Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder (keyfinder.exe). If you having problem with Keyfinder, you can use any other Windows key changer listed here, such as RockXP and KeyFinder Thing.
- Once launched, Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder will display the existing Windows and Office product key in the system. Select “Microsoft Windows” tab (open by default), and click on Options menu, and then select “Change Windows Key”.
- In the Change Microsoft Windows XP Key window, key in the product key or serial number generated from the keygen program in the boxes.
- Click on Change button when done.
- Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder will use Microsoft’s WMI script to change the product key of Windows XP. Follow on screen instruction to continue.
- Run wga-fix.exe program. Click on Yes button on the ‘wga-host-fix 0.1 window’ to redirect WGA authorization and validation request to loopback address (127.0.0.1). Alternatively, open Command Prompt, and navigate to \Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ directory, edit the Hosts file, and add in the following entry to the end of the file:127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com
- Uninstall or delete any cracked or patched LegitControlCheck.dll, WgaTray.exe and WgaLogon.dll located in \Windows\System32 folder. You may also need to delete “Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool” located in C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files\ folder.
- Go to Windows (Microsoft) Updates or Microsoft Download Center to download updates or applications in which require validation. Install WGA Validation Tool ActiveX when prompted. (Note: If you’re having problem to validate Windows with MGADiag.exe in later process, you still skip previous and this step first or apply the patched LegitCheckControl.dll again, which means leave the patch and crack intact, and only come back to delete any crack or patch, and install original WGA validation tool later. This especially true if you have LegitCheckControl.dll 1.5.723.1 with MGDIAG.exe 1.5.0717.0)
- Run the Microsoft Microsoft Genuine Validation Diagnostic Tool (MGADiag.exe), and click on Continue button to proceed.
- Click on OK when MGADiag finishes processing and displays your genuine status. The status should show GENUINE, and not NOT ACTIVATED.
Step 6 - 10 can also be done without using any hacker tool, by using Activation Wizard following official tutorial from Microsoft on how to change the Volume Licensing product key on a computer that is running Windows XP SP1 and later versions of Windows XP detailed as below.
- Click Start, and then click Run.
- In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
- In the left pane, locate and then click the following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Current Version\WPAEvents
- In the right pane, right-click OOBETimer, and then click Modify.
- Change at least one digit of this value to deactivate Windows.
- Click Start, and then click Run.
- In the Open box, type the following command, and then click OK.%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a
- Click Yes, I want to telephone a customer service representative to activate Windows, and then click Next.
- Click Change Product key.
- Type the new product key in the New key boxes, and then click Update. If you are returned to the previous window, click Remind me later, and then restart the computer.
- Repeat steps 6 to verify that Windows is activated. You receive the following message:Windows is already activated. Click OK to exit.
Shortcut to Genuine Windows without Any Crack
Unable to download the crack? Or afraid that the cracks of keygen and key changer contains virus or trojan? You can simply add in the entry in step 11 (i.e. 127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com) into your Hosts file if VLK key of your Windows installation has PID within the range of -640 to -641 or any other volume license product key that is not blocked. You can try it anyway no matter what product key you used to see if it working with existing CD key without changing the key.
Note: This shortcut by using wga-fix.exe or manually editing the Hosts file should works out of the box immediately on Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) 2005 and Windows XP Tablet PC Edition, and by luck on Windows XP Home, XP Professional and Windows 2003.
- Simply remove and delete the crack or patch that has been applied in \Windows\System32 (LegitCheckControl.dll, WgaLogon.dll, WgaTray.exe) or \Documents and Settings\All users\Application Data (sub-folders “Windows Genuine Advantage” and “Office Genuine Advantage”)
- Go to Windows (Microsoft) Updates or Microsoft Download Center to access Windows updates or download applications that require validation. Install WGA Validation Tool ActiveX when prompted.
- Add in the “127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com” to the Hosts file located in \Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ folder. Or alternatively, just execute
wga-fix.exe(download link removed due to complaint from Microsoft) contained in the WGA crack archive package. - Run MGADiag.exe to validate the Windows is genuine.
After applying this trick or hack, Microsoft WGA Validation Tool will treat the Windows as genuine, as in you legally purchase and buy the Windows OS. Users can access to Windows Updates or Microsoft Updates, download WGA validation required software products from Microsoft Download Center such as as Windows Defender, WMP11, IE7, DirectX and etc, and also to install these programs with proper validation without any cracks. This hack or trick should works on Windows XP, Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE), and even Windows Server 2003, and users can pick any browsers they like, including IE6, IE7, Firefox, Netscape or web browser powerd by IE such as MSN Explorer or AOL Explorer.
If you still having problem with this method, try out other WGA bypass methods.

Just ran the wga-fix.exe file in the bundle and it made it genuine without all the rest of the steps.
I also couldn’t get keychange to go, so just changed it the microsoft wizard way.
Didn’t need a keychange here though….just ran the wga-fix.exe and rebooted.

Is this trick working with Windows XP Pro X64 Edition? And what should I choose in WindowsKeygen for x64’s? 2003 VLK or XP Pro VLK?
December 7th, 2006 21:53
Great article, this is a good explanation and lessons-learned for programmers on how to program (passive/active) and other known-rules like ‘never-trust-user-input’.
Really crazy and sad from a company like Microsoft that a simple change-hosts-file can bypass all the work, this is probably why people wouldn’t want to pay for software (actually a way of thinking) like this. Or did Microsoft left this hole open on purpose (conspiracy theory) …?

Hi, thanks for the great article. I got some issues though that I would like to share:
I am running Windows XP PRO SP2
The KeyGen is not giving valid keys if I have to believe JellyBean.
When I edit the HOST file with text editor the line already seems to been have added.
My wgalogon and wgatray were not in my system32 but rather some sort of folder called Productdistribution. Deleted them anway.
It’s telling me Blocked VLK in red when I run the MGAdiag.exe, is this correct (basically this is what is addded in the HOST file: #block vlk
I think the registry fix provided in the comments at last gave me the IE7, no other updates though.
December 11th, 2006 23:13
Right, I made a little change after I studied the keygen a little closer and changed Windows X-pro to Windows Xpro VLK and it gave a genuine key right away accepted by Jelly Bean and the checker.
Just tried the whole update site and yes sir, it is working thank you very much
December 13th, 2006 20:55
works 100% …. congratulations and thanks …

[...] If your Windows XP system has been installed with Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) Validation Tools v1.5.722.0 (only LegitCheckControl.dll is update to version 1.5.722.0), and you haven’t aware that there are much easier methods of workaround or hack to bypass WGA validation, or a hosts file trick to permanent make genuine your Windows, you can use the following cracks for Windows Genuine Advantage version 1.5.722.0 that are been released by ETH0, with more cracks likely to appear soon. The WGA crack by ETH0 is a simple yet effective fix for WGA so that WGA validation will always be genuine. With the crack, users can access Windows Update and Microsoft Download Center properly, and the Windows XP machine will not have any annoying nag screen reminding you that you’re victim of counterfeiting.

December 14th, 2006 21:40
Hi idnotava, depending on what antivirus you used, some may detect mskey.exe as trojan and some may not. If you can get hold on a valid VLK key, you no need to execute all the executable for the hack. Anyway, the file do not has any virus.

Hi all
As a working technician i really appreciate this information .. not all my clients are rich some of them are very poor on pensions or with sick family members to support and they simply cannot afford to keep giving microsoft money if their mainboard dies in a power surge and they have lost their install disk or key. These days it important for children to have access to the net for education and old people have difficulty remembering which key to press when and i dont have to time to tech them all how to use Linux which is a pain to find modem drivers for anyway .. so thank you and merry christmass from me and all those people who are not so financially well endowed … love to all
December 18th, 2006 11:10
Ok, So i have Windows XP Home Edition, and which option do you use in the keyfinder to change the home edition key?
December 18th, 2006 11:16
Brad and beandip, just choose the VLK.
December 18th, 2006 13:06
the VLK doesn’t work…i’ve tried about 50 codes.
December 18th, 2006 13:19
May be home edition does not have VLK version? Try other key or V2C47 - MK7JD - 3R89F - D2KXW - VPK3J, else you have to use other way to crack the WGA.
December 18th, 2006 13:56

Hi, when i try to delete WgaLogon.dll and the Wga Tray it tells me i cant. To make sure they are not in use or full or write protected. However, the LegitControl did erase.
I followed all the steps accordingly until that point.
What am i doing wrong?
December 20th, 2006 07:46
guarrever, download a program called Unlocker from http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/, this will fix your problem, however, if you just add the 127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com line to your HOST file and reboot without doing anything else, you should be good to go.
December 20th, 2006 14:07
I made a few changes in doing step 11. Instead of using the command prompt( because I couldn’t access the directory doing that}, I directly opened by going direct to the directory and opened the HOST file with notepad and edited it then it worked! I hope this will be an alternate way in editing the HOST file.

I have several questions:
Wouldn’t Microsoft have records of product keys that were bought and eventually be able to weed out the false ones? Has anyone had to redo the crack process?
Since the only problem I’ve heard of involving a pirated version of Windows is the nagging pop-ups/balloons or being unable to get updates, has there been any legal problems like fines, etc. or is it not that big of a deal to Microsoft?

January 8th, 2007 16:15
This post helped me to figure out a much easier way to make Windows XP professional genuine.
Simply following some of steps, the only steps you have to take are of are
1. Change the host file and adding the line “127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com”.
2. Delete the .dat file in the WGA folder.
Once this is done it XP will automatically generate a new one which confirms genuine.
I was able to do this because I only have the active x validation tool installed, but my WGA folder only has on sub-folder called data and no other files.

Hi all, please help me
I was stuck on step nine (changing key). It says “An error has occured. This was probably caused by the keying of an invalid number. Please check it and try again.”
I even tried the official tutorial from Microsoft on how to change the Volume Licensing product key, and still doesn’t work. It keeps refusing the new key :(.
Please help, thank you so much. Maybe Kyle (post #78) knows another way?
January 15th, 2007 10:05
In response to Ben;
I think there is an issue with the Keygen. I can’t get it to work with the keys being produced by any method
January 15th, 2007 10:24
I have tried the patch. It doesn’t seem to work on my XP machine because the “VLK” (Volume License Key) from MSKey.exe (or Windows XP Keygen) cannot be changed by “keyfinder.exe”. Error says: “An error has occurred. This was probably caused by the keying of an invalid number. Please check it and try again.” But I carefully check and use Copy/Paste to insure accuracy. Simply doesn’t work.
My cd install disc is Windows XP Pro Upgrade (from WinMe). I have upgraded for SP2 and all patches up to IE 7.
I can get MSKey to give me a “Windows XP Pro” key - not VLK key - that changes nicely on keyfinder but, using the same procedural steps, does not result in activation. MGADiag.exe results in a red Validation Status of “Not Activated”.
I have also tried the “ChangeVLKeySP1.vbs” script (and “ChangeVLKeySP1.bat”) without success. Iget a Windows error message: “Generic Failure ox80041001
I have used the RegEdit approach also without success.
I can confirm that my “Host” is correctly revised and that WGALogon and WGATray are not present on my machine.
Any new thoughts. I’m stuck.
Thank You,
Doug

It’s the only validation tool Ive used that worked. Nice Work!
January 16th, 2007 13:06
Someone else gave me this method today the exact same steps, may be from this webpage and I’ll tell you that it worked perfectly.
January 16th, 2007 14:34
use the other site for download , http://www.filecrunch.com/file/~y1a7sx, muchh less hasle, plus no spyware

Work-around that worked for me assuming yo have allready installed SP_2 which I did from this site.
To start I made sure that the wgatray.exe and legitcheckcontrol.dll control files were removed along with sub folders “windows genuine advantage” and Office Genuine Advantage” as stated in ther fixes on this web site.
I then tried the WGA Permanent Kit (WPatcherP5575987.zip)using the included instructions. I could not get the Keyfinder program to change my Windows Product Key.I then tried a program called “RockXP4.exe” from another site and this still could not change my cd key.
I then used “How to change the Volume Licensing product key on a computer that is running Windows XP SP1 and later versions of Windows XP” from the micorsoft site.
When you get to step 10. “Type the new product key in the New key boxes, and then click Update. If you are returned to the previous window, click Remind me later, and then restart the computer.”
Do not restart the computer and do not click on remind me later. Once you have entered the newly generated product code, open up the MGA Dialoge Tool that came with the patch kit. Only use the MGA version that came with the patch. Click on continue and wait for your response.
Now here you have to be patient. I had to try at least 25 different codes untill I got one to work. Sometimes I got the mesage VLK Invalid or VLK Blocked but eventually I came across one that worked that said in green letters Genuine.
By not restarting windows after each attempt you save yourself alot of time. I just cut and and pasted the key numbers, it only took 10 minutes of trying to get a correct key.
Once I got the genuine signal, I did not re-boot my computer. I then ran the wga-fix program.
Then, I went to the page on this site where you can download the Internet Explorer 7 file upgrade without having to go through the windows authentic hoops. I did the same with windows media centre.
The program ran OK then I re-booted the computer. I then performed a system restore save point and opened up internet explorer 7 and went to the windows update site. All went well. I had over 65 updates to install. Once I was up to date, I did another system restore and then went to the microsoft WGA site and tried my luck. Did not have any problems.
January 19th, 2007 17:10
One more thing I forgot to mention. When using the MGADiag tool make sure you have disabled your internet connection first.
You then can enable it once you get a valid VLk code.

it seems this crack will cause problems with burning CDs…
before i installed this crack (which works nicely, i can now use WMP11 and IE7), i could burn CDs with my burner. Using Nero. But after installing this crack, i no longer can burn CDs. It will get stuck and can’t continue. I am 100% sure there is nothing wrong with my burner, CDs and software as i have never changed anything other than installing the crack.
please help.
January 20th, 2007 18:45
This totally works awesome.

It initially didnt work but that was most likely because I didnt delete the legitcheckcontrol.dll.
I also cleared my IE browser cache and temp files to be sure.

I had similar problems keyfinder saying “An error has occured. This was probably caused by the keying of an invalid number. Please check it and try again.”
Could be the fact I’ve been up all night but this was all due to me having the wrong product family set in the key generator I had it on Windows XP Pro. as soon as I changed it to Windows XP Pro. VLK the new number was accepted first time and all works well. Thanks to all those who worked out this bypass. GREAT WORK
January 21st, 2007 10:43
worked like a charm! thanks a lot!
January 21st, 2007 23:10
It doesnot work for me. I have all the correct steps followed, but all the time I do that, Microsoft never accepts the key.
One note, are there any rebooting steps in between that I am forgetting, and should the PID be between 640 and 640 only. I have no idea, was up all night, still cant figure it out.
Help would greatly be appreciated. What all should I remove, I dont have any cracked legit and wpa files as well, still I cant do anything.
AND, should the WGADIAG.exe be executed b4 checking it on the website, or does it not matter anyway.
Warm Regards,
January 22nd, 2007 03:22

WOW Guys..this DOES work so well…. I’m impressed…
January 27th, 2007 02:06
I really need help with this. This is what I have done. This all came about becasue my VLK was recently blocked.
1. Changed the VLK to another -640- key that appears to be Genuine.
2. Ran the wga-fix and verified that it added the 127.0.0.1 entry correctly in the Hosts file.
3. Deleted LegitCheckControl, wgatray, and wgalogon. I also deleted the Windows Genuine Validation program from Downloaded Program Files folder. (This may have been a mistake but it says I could do it in Step 12. PLus it said it was damaged.)
4. Went to Windows Update and ran through its download and install procedure. It says it installed the Windows Genuine Tool. However - and this is key - it never asks me to install the ActiveX component. I notice that a new LegitCheckControl v. 1.5.530.0 has been installed in the system32 folder. No wgatray or wgalogon has been installed however. In addition, there is no Windows Genuine Validation tool installed in the Downloaded Program Files folder. The Windows Update site responds with:
Validation Incomplete: Unable to Perform Validation error 0×80080299
5. If I execute MGAdiag, it says my key is Genuine and creates a new data.dat key in the Genuine Windows folder.
Bottom line: I still can not go to Windows Update and retrieve updates. I always get the Validation Incomplete message. I’m sure this is because the ActiveX control is never downloaded and installed in the Downloaded Programs Files folder. (And wgalogon and wgatray are not downloaded and installed either although I’m not sure what efect that has.)
Can someone help me? It seems like I’m almost there. The MGADiag says the key is Genuine, but I still need to download the ActiveX control to access Windows Update and its not doing it.
Thanks in advance.
January 27th, 2007 02:34
@Pete
That is odd, the version number you quote is from August last year. There have been three or four new versions since then. It seems as if you have been given a version that did not come with an ActiveX. The version you need is 1.5.0723.1
It looks as if your browser security settings are too restrictive. MGADiag will show you a lot more than your validation status. Click on the Browser tab and inspect your Security settings that are reported there.
You need to have the following settings:
Download signed ActiveX controls: Prompt
Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins: Allowed
Active scripting: Allowed
Script ActiveX controls marked as safe for scripting: Allowed
Others are best set as disabled.
If you need to change any settings, go to Tools –> Internet Options –> Security tab –> Internet –> Custom Level. When there, you can alter the settings, but take care that you alter them only for the settings with exactly the same name as given above.
January 27th, 2007 02:43
Wow…Thank so much helios for the quick reply.
Yeah, I know the 1.5.530.0 version is one of the first that come out and I thought it a little strange that it would download that version and install it. But I’ve done it a couple times now and that’s the one that is downloaded and installed by the process. I wish I knew more about how the different versions worked. 1.5723.1 was on my computer before I deleted everything per the instructions.
As for the browser, it is definitely ActiveX enabled. I can run ActiveX tests properly and Browser security settings in MGADiag are as you described.
Pretty much driving me crazy. Any other suggestions? Thanks a lot.
January 28th, 2007 04:11
@Pete,
Your first step should be to try an alternative validation URL. Try this one.
http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/downloads/validate.aspx
If that doesn’t do the trick then it looks as if you have a corrupt Windows Update on your computer. You should proceed as follows to delete the contents of your Datastore folder:
You must first temporarily stop the Automatic Updates service
In the Run box, enter services.msc
Click OK
Right-click the Automatic Updates service
Click Stop
Now you can delete the contents of the DataStore folder by navigating to \WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore and deleting all contents of the DataStore folder.
Restart the Automatic Updates service
Now go and try to validate Windows and accept the ActiveXtool.
January 28th, 2007 23:56
Hi all,
I was able to change my key, BUT only with the keys generated in Windows XP Pro group, NOT the VLK (using MS-key)
I continued with the steps, but it didn’t work (MSdiag says not validated).
Does this mean I have different version of Windows. What version of WinXP should I donwload?
Or is there a workaround to this? I really don’t want to re-install as it’s a lot of work.
Please help, thank you so much guys
This community rocks \m/
January 30th, 2007 00:20
Hi helios — Pete again
I’m bummed to report that your suggestion did not work. And I was excited about it too because this was something I hadn’t tried before. I stopped the Automatic Update service, deleted the two files in the Datastore folder, rebooted - I noticed that Windows recreated two new smaller files in the folder upon reboot, and went to Windows Update. Same thing - Validation Incomplete: Unable to Perform Validation. It never pops up the Install AciveX control window; it never installs.
By the way, I had already used the “alternate method’ at the Genuine site. Always the same thing. It fails and when I go through the diagnostics, they all pass until it gets to the last one “Microsoft ActiveX control loading” and it just gets hung on “Checking” instead of “Passed”.
Very frustrating. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
January 30th, 2007 01:32
@Pete,
I have no experience of the procedure you have been trying to use since I have a genuine genuine Windows on my computer.
Having read through your posts again, I notice a reference to an addition to your HOSTS file. This is a loop-back which is preventing information being sent from your computer to the Microsoft validation site.
This is presumably intentional, but it cannot be of any use until you have the ActiveX installed. This entry is possibly preventing the installation of the ActiveX.
I suggest you delete the LegitCheckControl.dll in your \WINDOWS\system32 folder. Then go to your HOSTS file in \WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc. Open it using Notepad and locate the line ‘127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com’. Place a # at the start of the line so that it is not applied. Then try to install the ActiveX. If that is successful then you can remove the #.
January 30th, 2007 03:07
helios -
Yeah, I thought about the loopback entry also but had not tested by commenting it out. So I did, but no change in behavior. Deleted everything - datastore, LegitCheckControl, download in Software Distribution - but to no avail. Just installs another LegitCheckControl (always 1.5.530.0) and no wgatray, wgalogon, and of course no ActiveX control. Bummed!
I get the feeling you may be running out of suggestions, but I thank you nonetheless. I would think that someone else has run into this problem before, but I can get no information by Google or anything else.
If you have any other suggestions, would be happy to try. Thanks once again.
January 30th, 2007 03:09
@Pete
Another possibility that I should have thought about sooner is that the WGA ActiveX has somehow been disabled in your browser.
You should check this before considering my suggestion in the other post.
In your browser go to Tools –> Manage Add-ons. In the Show box make sure that ‘Add-ons that have been used …..’ is selected. Scroll down to Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool. Highlight it and make sure it is set to ‘Enabled’. Click on the Update ActiveX button. I’m embarrassed that I did not even think of this at the beginning.
January 30th, 2007 03:57
Helios -
The Windows Genuine ActiveX control is not listed in the add-ons of the browser. It used to be before I removed the Windows Genuine Validation program from the Windows/Downloaded Program Files folder. This in essence is the problem - that it is not installed as an ActiveX add-on in the browser.
However, I do have a quick question for you. If you use the Mgadiag.exe tool as you advised me to do earlier, what is listed under the Browser tab as the User Agent? I have Mozilla/4.0 which I think is strange. The Default Browser however is listed as IEXPLORE.exe (IE7).
January 30th, 2007 08:05
@Pete,
MGADiag is reporting the correct User_Agent. The User_Agent header string is part of the HTTP request sent to the web server. I don’t want to get into the details (see Wikipedia if interested - search for User_Agent), but back in the days when Microsoft was the new kid on the block, Netscape Navigator (code name Mozilla) was the overwhelmingly popular choice of browser. This spoof as it is known in the trade was used by Microsoft so that the website would download the content designed for Navigator. Old habits die hard.
Now back to your problem. I’ve asked some questions and discovered the registry settings that govern the loading of ActiveX controls. I don’t know how confident you are about delving into your registry, so I have uploaded a zip file to a server for you. This contains some instructions and a .reg file you can merge into your registry if necessary. The link is
http://depositfiles.com/files/571011
January 30th, 2007 22:11
helios -
I was excited when I got your registry changes because I was starting to think it must be a problem with registry entries. That may still be so, but alas, the ones you suggested in your reg file are not the problem. I opened the reg file in Notebook and went through each registry entry manually and they were already correct. Considering that I’ve already deleted every file I’ve seen discussed on the net regarding this - datastores, software distributions, Genuine software data.dat file, various versions of LegitControlCheck, wgatray and wgalogon - I have to believe that there is something in the registry that is keeping the activex file from being downloaded and/or installed in the Downloaded Program Files folder. When I deleted the original Microsoft Genuine Validation program from the Downloaded Program Files folder, maybe the program is still registered in the registry and entries are not deleted? Therefore Windows Update still thinks it’s installed and doesn’t download it again? I’m really reaching here.
As for the Mozilla/4.0, yeah, I’m sorry about bothering you with that. I went to the wiki right after I wrote you and saw that that was the correct entry. Not to mention the hundreds of MGAdiag diagnostics I’ve perused on the Microsoft Genuine forum sites. Lots of other people are having this problem and I have yet to see a definive answer from Microsoft to any of them.
I even uninstalled IE7 yesterday downgrading to IE6 hoping the reinstall would fix the problem. (IE7 has no problem reinstalling since MGADiag validates my installation as genuine.) But no dice. Also, just to let you know, I commented out the entry in the Hosts file when you suggested it.
I have gone to the Event Viewer to see if anything looks amiss there. No red flags and indeed indicates that everything has installed properly. ARGHH!
As you can see, I am tenacious about fixing the problem, but I am running out of hope.
Thanks as always for your help.
January 30th, 2007 23:25
@Pete,
Well, I too don’t like admitting defeat as you might have guessed. The problem is that, once you start installing cracks and applying unofficial patches, you have no idea what changes they have made to settings, including those in your registry.
You could go to the link below
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=39204
and download the cab file that includes the latest version of LegitCheckControl.dll and its associated .inf file. Unpack the two files and place them in your \system32 folder after renaming your current LegitCheckControl.dll as LegitCheckControl_530.dll.. This way you can always go back to your current dll if necessary. Then go to
http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/downloads/WhyValidate.aspx
and try to validate.
Worth a shot.
Incidentally, wgatray.exe and wgalogon.dll are irrelevant. They are to do with the Notification arm of WGA, which operates independently of the Validation arm.
I understand that WGA Validation tool is registered at
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{17492023-C23A-453E-A040-C7C580BBF700},
but there are numerous other registry entries associated with LegitCheckControl, so this info is probably not worth much.
February 2nd, 2007 15:27
Worked for me. I used this link:
http://www.verzend.be/v/2675288/WPatcherP5575987.zip.html
This was for a fresh install of XP Corporate SP2..
I didn’t even install any updates after the install, so MGADiag said “Validation Control Not Installed”.. so then I decided to install the updates.. one of which was IE 7. It installed without a hitch.. I then downloaded the Active X validation tool and it said Genuine. I’m happy it worked on the first try, because I read some went through many keys before finding a valid one.

I’ve managed to remove WGA from my computer by hacking around on my own and deleting certain .dll’s (don’t ask me which ones, because they’re gone and I didn’t take notes).
Now I don’t even get the notification star showing up in my toolbar anymore.
That’s the good news.
The bad news is that on my automatic update feature, all I get is the option to upgrade to IE7 (which requires WGA).
I’m afraid I’m going to miss all the various critical updates to prevent attacks, etc. Can anyone help me with this?

Tested on Windows XP Professional SP2 and Windows Server 2003 R2.
First, click “Run…” on your start menu, type “regedit” and press enter.
The Registry Editor opens up, and you are presented with a long list of keys on the left.
Browse through the list to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents.
(If you can’t find this key, you’re screwed!)
On the right, you should see a stringz value named OOBETimer.
This is the activation stuff. If you change it, Windows will change it back within a few seconds.
Whatever its value is, change it to FF D5 71 D6 8B 6A 8D 6F D5 33 93 FD.
(At first I thought this was different for each machine/serial number, but it’s always the same if windows is activated…LOL)
After you’ve changed it, right-click WPAEvents and choose “Permissions…”
A little window opens up with a list of user names. Click SYSTEM, and in the list below (”Permissions for SYSTEM”) check every box under “Deny”. Click OK to own windows. You don’t even have to reboot lol.
If you’re too slow windows might change it back, so just hit F5 to refresh and make sure it got saved.
If not, just try again. Microsoft owns for making it so easy to hack their software.
So, just keep on enjoying an activated version of windows.

Your Key Might be Blackedlisted, in other word Microsoft has Baned your original key and you’ll need a Pirated non blacklisted key to be able to make it genuine.

Oh man, i’ve been working on this for awhile, need some help.
As far as following the first method, I can’t get a vlk that is generated to work. Im pretty sure i have an oem cd of some sort. does this mean im stuck. Can you still work this out using a “windows xp pro.” key and not a “windows xp pro. vlk”?
By the way im doing a fresh install, installing winxp (no service pack) and then installing xp pro sp2 IT edition found on your site. I still have those keys (or authentification) in the systray. I then update my from the updates page the first thing that pops up is a window “saying to you want to install” (is this the active x you guys are talking about) you have no choice you ahve to update. then you search and find updates with a “install now” button.
I install - “either express or custom” i choose custom - then im brought to “windows update” and i click on “details” Looks like im installing
windows installer 3.1 , update for windows xp (kb898461), windows genuine advantage validation tool (kb892130) 3.6 mb in total
it installs and wants me to reset my pc.
Now im stuck, the statement above
“Uninstall or delete any cracked or patched LegitControlCheck.dll, WgaTray.exe and WgaLogon.dll located in \Windows\System32 folder. You may also need to delete “Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool” located in C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files\ folder.”
confuses me considering i don’t think i have any cracked or patched installed so as mentioned i just skip it (however i have tried to delete files only to find that LegitCheckControl.dll was there and nothing else.” Should i try and download my updates?
in summary: i need to know if the first above trick or hack have you, will work without the vlk key gen - just a normal oem copy of windowsxp”
- what is the actual active x that im looking for when i got to update (is it that box that immediately comes up after i do my first update after installing xp sp2 IT edition
- what is this business about 1.7.17.0 wga - how do you tell if you have this and has anyone got any experience with it
- i have tried Bearnapper (post 95) method and got nothing has anyone tried invarbrass ’s way post 154
ps my main desire is to have updates available and downloadable with no problems - basically idiot proof hahaha for myself sake
thanks sorry about the long post im going crazy over this
February 26th, 2007 07:27
ok never mind looks like i got it! Ok im doing a fresh install of a retail copy of Xp pro. I could never way mentioned above to work Ie. could not get get the keygens (mskeys) generated vld to work with my oem it never let me input giveing me an error somethign like “possible error, weren’t able to put in key” from the keyfinder. so never mind i just tryed this instead after alot of time getting no where.
ok now that you have xp (no service pack installed)
now install “WindowsXP kb835935-sp2-enu” also known as winxp sp2 IT edition or something like this - found on this site
Install and reboot
run updates from windows update site - the updates shouldn’t be more than 3 things
“windows installer 3.1 , update for windows xp (kb898461), windows genuine advantage
validation tool (kb892130) 3.6 mb in total”
reboot
now you should still have those keys (authentication) in the system tray
use this to get rid of it

Tested on Windows XP Professional SP2 and Windows Server 2003 R2.
First, click “Run…” on your start menu, type “regedit” and press enter.
The Registry Editor opens up, and you are presented with a long list of keys on the left.
Browse through the list to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents.
(If you can’t find this key, you’re screwed!)
On the right, you should see a stringz value named OOBETimer.
This is the activation stuff. If you change it, Windows will change it back within a few seconds.
Whatever its value is, change it to FF D5 71 D6 8B 6A 8D 6F D5 33 93 FD.
(At first I thought this was different for each machine/serial number, but it’s always the same if windows is activated…LOL)
After you’ve changed it, right-click WPAEvents and choose “Permissions…”
A little window opens up with a list of user names. Click SYSTEM, and in the list below
(”Permissions for SYSTEM”) check every box under
“Deny”. Click OK to own windows. You don’t even have to reboot lol.
If you’re too slow windows might change it back, so just hit F5 to refresh and make sure it got saved.
If not, just try again. Microsoft owns for making it so easy to hack their software.
So, just keep on enjoying an activated version of windows.
————————————————————————————-
alright well now after you finish they above you have to clikc on those keys and they will go away
saying “windows is already authenticated” pretty sweet eh! thanks to invarbrass
Now i went to updates and tried to install updates again and it said “your
copy of windows in not valid”
so instead you should try not going to windows updates and try the opening
the MGAdiag.exe click continue it should say “not valid” in red
so now run “WGA-fix” and click continue. Now open up “MGAdiag” again and click continue
It should say it is now genuine! yewwwwwwww!
Now go and download more updates and you should be good to go - and i have also installed mp7.0 too so i think im good to go.
thanks for all the help guys

[...] If you install WGA Validation Tool and Notifications, and been marked as non-genuine or pirate Windows system, you can actually use several other more effective ways to bypass, disable or crack the WGA on Windows XP, including make your Windows XP genuine permanently. [...]

wga-fix worked alone to successfully download IE7
However, when I go to activate windows, it says its already activated, but when I turn my computer on it still tells me I only have x days left to activate, I click activate, and it says already activated
How come, and how do I fix this?

The Registry method worked for me! thank you so much, this has been a pain. Is there a website you could direct me to so that I could learn how that worked? I would really appriciate it.

Here is another replacement for wga-fix.exe:
http://spacebag.googlepages.com/WGALoopbacker-bytb.exe
Did this from scratch, because I wasn’t sure what wga-fix.exe was doing for sure other than the loopback.
Cheers.
