It is a simple process if you follow all the steps that we are going to give you, since in essence you will only have to copy the commands one by one and enter your user license.

How to troubleshoot Windows 7 activation

  • We must uninstall the patch  KB971033  and restart the computer. We will find it by looking in the path "Control Panel> Windows Update> View update history> Installed Updates".  We must select it by clicking with the right button so that the "delete" option appears .
  • Another option to uninstall this patch is to enter  wusa /uninstall /kb:971033 in the "System Symbol" with administrator permissions.
  • We enter "System Symbol" with administrator permissions and we are entering the commands that we list.
  • net stop sppuinotify.
  • sc config sppuinotify start = disabled.
  • net stop sppsvc
  • from %windir%\system32\7B296FB0-376B-497e-B012-9C450E1B7327-5P-0.C7483456-A289-439d-8115-601632D005A0 /ah.
  • from %windir%\system32\7B296FB0-376B-497e-B012-9C450E1B7327-5P-1.C7483456-A289-439d-8115-601632D005A0 /ah.
  • from %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\tokens.dat.
  • from %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\cache\cache.dat.
  • net start sppsvc.
  • cscript c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ipk Windows 7 license key, separated with hyphens.
  • cscript c:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs /ato.
  • sc config sppuinotify start = demand.

We clarify, just in case, that the commands must be entered without the end point. Once you complete the process everything should go back to normal and the problems of activation of Windows 7 should have been resolved.

We imagine that Microsoft will end up launching an update in the coming days that puts an end to this problem directly, but if you can not wait, you just have to follow the steps we have taken.
