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.

i have downloaded Hacking wga.7z and i am not sure where to extract it
please help(-:

This totally works awesome.
Im running Win XP MCE 2002 SP2, followed the instructions and updates comming through now.
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.

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.

Sorry to say, but the above method will by no means work on the 2003 server… /JJ

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.

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.

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 15th, 2007 18:28
It’s the only validation tool Ive used that worked. Nice Work!
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

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 14th, 2007 10:14
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?

nice, but it doesn’t seem to work for Windows XP Media Centre Edition 2005… x.x
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.

January 7th, 2007 12:07
One issue that I am having is that MGADiag reports invalid product key for every key I generate with the keygen.
Anyone know of a workaround?
January 7th, 2007 03:50
Oh, and the magical jellybean app couldn’t change the VLK so I had to do it manually. Thanks for posting this solution!
