    Keep getting " illigal copy of windows 7 " popup

    I keep getting a popup for me to active my windows 7. I have been using this for 4 years and I bought it when I custom built my pc. I had no problems up to a few weeks ago. I since lost my KEY and disk so I have no idea how to fix this problem. The popup is giving me XX ( forgot ) amount of days. Please help !!!

    You have abandoned your previous PCHF threads + you declined to provide a Speccy url that was requested by a member of staff that was trying to help you, we are always happy to help but it is not possible to do so if you do not provide the information that you are asked for.

    Same info still required;

    Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

    To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

    In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.

    In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

    Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

    If you need to save the results as a txt file can you please edit out your Windows product key before uploading the information here.

      I a NOT going to publish a file to the internet that has 500 lines of personal information about my PC and NETWORK. It is absolutely ridiculous for strangers on the internet to ask people to do so in the first place.

        quiet simply, you are being paranoid and over dramatic, but as is your right, don’t send the info, just means we can’t help.
        your best option is to ring Microsoft and tell them your story and see if they will provide assistance to re-activate your Windows version.

          And @PookieNumNum please refer to forum rule 13
          1. We will not assist with recovery of or figuring out of system passwords, for any reason.

          Yes a Windows key is a password.
