Windows 7 Professional not genuine after system restore
After restoring my system to an earlier date, Windows 7 Professional suddenly became not genuine. I attempted to authenticate it using the online process with my original Windows 7 Home number and also my original Windows 7 Professional upgrade number but both failed. Additionally, I spoke with Microsoft and Dell technical help and both places were unable to solve the problem. I tried to restore my system again but the not genuine message persists. I would prefer not to reinstall Windows from scratch. Please help and walk me through the steps of figuring this out.
Thank you, Ryan
