Guest paulreims@gmail.com Posted August 14, 2007 Posted August 14, 2007 Hello, I have a coupe of machines on one of our site on which I get the error "n days left for activation". The PC's were installed with our Volume Licensing key, so the license is valid. When I double-click on the message, the activation window appears and tells me "Your Windows is already activated", without having to reenter the License key or anything else. When I restart the PC and logon again, I get the same error "n days left for activation"..... We have about 1000 PC's installed with the same key and I only get the message on 6 PC's. Thank you very much in advance PR

See this answer posted by Carey Frisch, MS-MVP: Boot into "Safe Mode" by pressing (F8) during a reboot. Go to Start > Run and type: regsvr32 regwizc.dll , and hit enter.
