message keeps popping on the laptop, and more.

Some of the Windows 10 features will no longer work unless you remove

this message. This alert can get quite annoying, especially while working
with important stuff as it pops up at regular intervals.

However, you can still do other things on your PC, like complete your work
and use the computer like before.

The main reason that your computer displays this error is that you did not
activate your Windows license after the trial period.

You can also receive this error because the license of Windows operating
system that you are using is expired or blocked.

Also, if you share your Windows license to other people, like friends or
family members, Microsoft could block your license due to use in multiple
computer usage or attempts to activate the same license too many times.

If you see this error on your Windows computer, this article will show you
how to fix it.

How can I fix Windows is not genuine errors?

Solution 1: Use the RSOP command

You can try to solve the error generated on your Windows screen through

the Run window
2. Type rsop.msc there and press Enter button

3. Navigate to Windows settings, click on Security system and then

go to System services

start looking for the Startup and then click on the Automatic

5. Press Windows and R buttons as you did at the first step and

paste gpupdate/force into the Run box

6. Restart your computer.

Solution 2: Use SLMGR-REARM command

By using Command Prompt and a simple command, you can fix this
problem in both Windows 32-bit and 64-bit, and in all versions of Windows
operating system:
1. Launch Command prompt as administrator by clicking on Start,
type cmd in the search box and then right-click on Command
prompt and choose Run as administrator
 2. Type SLMGR–REARM or SLMGR /REARM

Solution 3: Check if your license is really legitimate

If you have paid for a license, and if you now find that it was a fake one,
you could take up the matter with Microsoft, report counterfeit software

The Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool provides detailed
information about the Microsoft Genuine Advantage components and

Windows technical support request to Microsoft.

Download the tool, run the MGADiag.exe, and click Continue for the check
results.

There will be some useful information such as the Validation Status that
might tell you if the product key is invalid or a blacklisted corporate key.

You might also get notified if the LegitCheckControl.dll file has been
tampered with in which case there could be some form of crack on your
Windows install which has been detected.

If there is an issue the tool can fix, click the Resolve button.

Solution 5: Uninstall update KB971033 if you are using Windows 7

The KB971033 update could be the source of your problem in case you
are using Windows 7.

If you are getting the message This copy of Windows is not genuine, then
this means that Windows has an updated file that is capable to detect
your Windows operating system.

Hence, this requires uninstalling the following update to get rid of this
problem.

1. Open Control Panel

3. Click on View installed updates

Contoh proses yang biasa ditangani secara otomatis menggunakan

skrip ini adalah koneksi printer dan jaringan.

Jika skrip ini dinonaktifkan atau dimatikan, maka akan muncul

pesan error “Script Host run.vbs” atau “Windows Script Host
