Not genuine or valid? Hey everyone! Well a few days ago I encountered a problem when I turned my computer on. The problem was when i did an update for MSE (Microsoft Essentials), out of nowhere it said something like, "Please validate you windows it is not a valid copy of Microsoft corporation." something like that. It also said i have 30days to valid windows or else MSE will stop protecting my system. So I freaked and shut down my computer from the off switch from the power supply and rebooted. When I rebooted everything was sufficient, running smooth, all that good stuff. Till this day nothing has happened. Should I be worried? Did I do something I wasn’t support to do? Genuine Windows 7 Became Pirated? Make It Original and Activated Again - Tweaking with Vishal This site explained explains exactly what happened to me! However, I’m not worried anymore cause my windows 7 is legit! Thanks all!
By the way I don't know if I have this thread in the right thread.

Huh? Why turn it off at the wall socket? I don't get that...
If your OS is genuine, then its valid and you have nothing to worry about. Does your activation still show as being valid?

It's genuine and when I checked system properties it said "valid your windows." So, right at that moment I got all scared and hit the switch. I don't know why that came over me, but I did it. Everything is fine now I guess but, when I did that switch off and turned it back on, I checked system properties it was ok.
