Product key VB Script

[ICIT2LOL]

here's a vb script to find windows product key

If you click on the popup and then press CRTL + C it will copy product key to clipboard, you can then paste it into notepad

If you have Win7x64 DVD you could do repair install, saves all your installed programs, files, folders, music, pictures, etc., just replaces windows

If that is what you wish to do, I have detailed instructions. Piece of cake really, I do them all the time.

Just wondering what the pop up is and when I click on that link and open I get this in the pic.

Just downloaded script & ran it same error code. Must be issue with upload/download. I'll upload VB script again.

Same thing with other program. Just uploaded program zipped. Works now.

Indicates error in code. I checked 2 VB scripts I have, both are identical in line 2 char 1. They run fine on both my win7x64 machines

Ok mate it is working now

 

[wben353]

Had to be issue with upload. I've uploaded it to a few threads without issue!
I'll zip it from now on to alleviate script error.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention!!

No probs mate while I was looking for that I came across this and other links https://gist.github.com/eyecatchup/d577a2628666a0ad1375

Pretty similar & uses Windows Shell.

Don't really need those two lines, as VB.net is usually installed on most win7 machines, it runs fine

Little earlier I tried uploading VB script to one of my old posts, downloaded & ran it. Worked fine. Tried to find older one that was broken to check SHA1 hash. Couldn't find it, willing to bet that SHA1 was missmatch. Probably corrupt bit Line 2 Char 1

Now you have got me there wben I am a rank amatuer at the coding side of things and having grown up on vacuum tubes / transistors / chips etc am more hardware based than the intricacies of software.

But to get back on topic I am at a loss as to the OP's problem except when he states his girlfriends machine also started getting this non genuine message. Now if they are using the same net connection it makes me think maybe the modem they are using if it is the same one is infected or defective my own gut feeling is the former as I have seen it mentioned abit just lately how hackers can indeed get into modems and do what they do to cause chaos.

Now just as a suggestion Cheezus as modem routers are really not that expensive - it doesn't need anything fancy - for example I can get a decent TP-Link modem/router for $40. At worst you have bought something that isn't needed and at best it cures the problem and gets you a new and more up to date device.

I would if you can run these from a loaded stick made on a another machine to see what if anything is prowling on your machine perhaps. It would be an idea to run these on the girlfriends machine too.

(NB If one is running Kaspersky security it may rant about ADW - just ignore it or disable Kaspersky while the ADW is being used)

Now an alternative is to use the Kaspersky rescue disk it will run without involving Windows because it is a bootable disk and runs in it's own environment.
Download Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10 it may take a while to run but it will scan just about everything on he machine it has directions in that link on what to do.
Now there are other rescue disks that do a similar job but I trust this one and always use it first up.

Here's a program by F Secure to check router.

I run avast free antivirus, it has built in network scan.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it looks like both of the posts that I quoted above were meant to be a part of this thread: http://www.sevenforums.com/windows-...-internet-not-working-dnsapi-dll-missing.html

For what it is worth, wben353: it is my guess that Cheezus has the original OEM System Builder DVD and the product key that came with it. ICIT2LOL posted info on Magic Jelly Bean (Option two) in the hopes that keys could be found for the games mentioned in the OP.

They were, but the side discussion was growing so I split it off.

...and here I thought that they had lost their minds

Well I for my part was just trying to find answers to get back to the OP - it seemed pointless to me that I should advise or suggest anything to him because I couldn't understand what wben was chipping in with, and it saved a lot of tedious messaging.

As I said I am a rank amateur so perhaps I had better stay out of it .
