How come I can use Windows Update and download updates normally then? My computer updates just fine and I've got no "Your windows is not genuine" message. No TBH I didn't know it wasn't genuine cause I've been using the same CD since Windows 7 came out and I didn't encounter any problem. It just started happening some days ago.
Run Description of the update for Windows Activation Technologies
and
Genuine Microsoft Software
and then post back your MGA Diagnostics report as you did before. Your installation is the default installation with no license key attached. The fact that it is activated means an exploit was used. You may be able to download and install updates, but parts of those updates are being blocked and may result in a buggy OS and/or security vulnerabilities that leave you and your system compromised. You will need to obtain a valid copy of Windows for your own security and so your system will work reliably.
It seems my installation is indeed not genuine, my friend installed it for me.
So no help unless I buy genuine Windows?
I'm afraid not. We cannot help people who do not have Genuine Windows due to forum rules: https://www.sevenforums.com/general-d...ease-read.html. Once you get Genuine Windows installed, I would recommend you start a new thread if you have any problems. I have seen installing Genuine Windows resolve crashes in the past, so that may be the only problem you are having.
Best of luck.
