windows 7 activation error code 0x80072f8f

wade slaughter · 25 Jan 2012

Hi,

Recently I've been prompted by my computer to validate my windows 7 as it may not be genuine etc. Although when I go to either activate online or re-type in my key, I receive the error 'code 0x80072f8f' and it closes.

I've researched the topic before posting this, and ran the diagnostic tool and got the following results,

You appear to have a problem which is preventing activation - but the report is not very specific about it.
Recreate the Licensing Store
1) Click Start button.
2) Type: CMD.exe into the 'Search programs and files' field
3) Right-Click on CMD.exe and select Run as Administrator
4) Type: net stop sppsvc (It may ask you if you are sure, select yes)
Note: the Software Protection service may not be running, this is ok.
5) Type: cd %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
6) Type: rename tokens.dat tokens.bar
7) Type: cd %windir%\system32
8) Type: net start sppsvc
9) Type: slui.exe
10) After a couple of seconds Windows Activation dialog will appear. You may be asked to re-activate and/or re-enter your product key or Activation may occur automatically.
