Somehow, I installed SP1 and it works! I checked for “wgaer_m” and found nothing, am I lucky, or is there a reason?

This scared me also, but I easily solved it by doing a system restore before restarting my system.

I used TimerStop to hack vista, going into command prompt window and typing slmgr -dlv I see that the time left on my hacked vista is still 30 days. This was done after restarting the system.

Easy fix. Also, as mentioned above, the file wgaer_m can be renamed and then deleted to fix problem.

JJ >>> Just above your post is the solution by Kytane – search- for the file, fool with properties / permissions, etc till you can rename it- get it to delete

Windows system restore can be your friend for any updates installed, which may have had a detrimental affect on your systems behaviour

omg, I just got this update and got scared when it told me it might disable my software. I tried to delete the wgaer_m file, but it required permission. So I renamed it (which actually worked) and then was able to delete it! I also ended the process on Task manager before restarting.

(I haven’t restarted yet, if this works, then I’ll post again…)

Just rename wgaer_m.exe to something else. This worked for me, but I did it before rebooting, and did not check the box from the popup. Use Task manager to find the wgaer_m.exe loction. If you kill the proccess it pops rightback up. So just rename the file.

I solved it with a bat file that closes wgaer_m.exe on startup. XD
