How To Fix “This Copy of Windows Is Not Genuine” Notification in Windows 7

How To Fix “This Copy of Windows Is Not Genuine” Notification in Windows 7


Have you ever experienced the pop-up message “This Copy of Windows Is Not Genuine” which shows up once the copy of widows 7 you are running expires? Aside from the Windows OS expiring, another thing that causes this notification to show up is when you are running a pirated copy of the windows software.
Fix Windows Is Not Genuine
My neighbour had a piece of this experience this morning, when he saw this message on his computer. Being an occasional user, he knows little about the system. Lucky him I was still at home preparing for work when this happened, and so I helped him fixed it while he plan on how to get a genuine copy later.

What are the effects of not fixing this message?

There are couple of things which can happen to your computer when your Windows OS expires or reads not genuine, some of them which are:

  • Your wall paper will disappear, and you won’t be able to put any either, your desktop screen will just go black
  • Frequent and irritating 5 minutes pop up message reminding you that you are using a Windows OS that is not genuine
  • Your system if after 30 days you did not fix the issue will go critical
So how can I fix this?

Ordinarily, some folks will tell you that your computer needs to be formatted to be able to fix the problem (and you are charged heavily for that) while others will advice using some named softwares to resolve the problem. But in this post, I will be sharing with you two (2) simple steps I used to fix this problem for my friend.

To fix this problem with few minutes follow these instructions which I have divided into two (2) parts.
Note: You must complete the two parts to be able to get this problem fixed

PART I: Search and Uninstall Windows Update KB971033
PART II: Rearm Windows

Here are the procedures

PART I: Search and Uninstall Windows Update KB971033

Step 1: Go to "Control Panel" and click on Windows Update

Step 2: Look to the bottom left corner of the page and click on "Installed Updates" If the link isn’t there, hit “View Update History” and hit then “Installed Updates” link at the top.

Step 3: Scroll down to the section titled “Microsoft Windows” and look for update KB971033.

Step 4: Right click it and hit “uninstall”. Hit okay. (Note: There are many updates with KBxxxxxxxx, make sure you select KB971033)

Step 5: Restart your computer and head on to PART II

PART II: Rearm Windows

Step 1: Click the Start Menu and type COMMAND PR in the start menu search box.

Step 2: Right click COMMAND PROMPT and select RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR.

Step 3: In the command prompt window type:

slmgr.vbs -rearm
      
and press enter. (Note: There is a space between slmgr.vbs and -rearm, so make sure you type it with the space)

Step 4: Now reboot/restart your computer to see the problem fixed!

Be sure to turn off windows update or else you will face the same problem again. Alternatively, you can hide Windows Update: KB971033 in your windows update history.

The method I have provided in this post is 100% safe and guaranteed more than that of using a software. If you follow the step by step guide correctly, you should have the problem fixed.

What you should have in mind

There is however, one thing you should know, this post is not an encouragement to be using a pirated copy of Windows, it would be very nice you buy a genuine software that way you are guarantied.This post is only a temporary help to fix the problem while you work on getting a genuine copy of Windows OS.
