    the key type in use is 8 meaning taken from a valid computer install

    IT could never have been on your comp as you agree, bought on EBAY.

    robertolito, you are one of many that bought what they thought were legal Windows 7 and matching COA key off of Ebay.
    You have been cheated.

    I have yet been unable to run KB971033. It runs searching for updates and finds none. I may eventually re-install Windows and recover the update functionality. Then I'll be able to install this update that checks windows genuine.
    And so I'll be able to post here results. Only by then I will have the updates problem resolved and will
    not need your help anymore.

    On the other hand, even if this Windows was previously installed in another computer and then sold to me, that does not mean counterfeit or pirated. I can take any Windows that was installed in any computer and remove it from that computer and install it in another. It will validate as genuine because it is. And will remain valid so long as I install in only one computer.

    I tried to install Update KB97103 that checks for Genuine Windows and any counterfeits or hacks to Windows>
    This is the response I get when trying to install

    So. this is already in the computer and Windows continues reporting it's activated and Genuine as shown here:
    https://www.screencast.com/t/dn5DXzEJr6l
    If there is any other way to prove to you that I am running a legitimate Windows? , let me know. I don't mind running any other test. In any case I am done: WINDOWS UPDATE IS BACK TO NORMAL AND WORKING FOR ME, and this thanks to the Microsoft page I found above.

    And by the way, I made this simple search on Google and found this result. Is it wrong?

    Which is exactly what I get. So..... I don't care if the logs tell you anything else, for me this is enough proof that I am running Genuine Windows and not a Counterfeit copy.
    But, if you are happy with what the logs say.... be my guest.
