    Reinstalling Win 7 professional over old Win 7 Professional without


    Repeated the too long title: Reinstalling WIn7professional over old WIn 7 Professional without losing any data or messing up what I got!


    I went here and found many tools to help me... as well as posting instructions.

    Even though I don't have the problem just "yet" I didn't think I needed to use any of the tools but reading these instructions for posting rules:

    Here are instructions I got that might be pertinent to my question that I moved off another thread .....

    Windows Genuine and Activation Issue Posting Instructions - Windows 7 Help Forums

    Product Key Number - Change - Windows 7 Help Forums

    So I decided to perform the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool anyway...(without sending anything off to Microsoft as I've not decided to reinstall the OS so this was just for "fun" in case it can be useful for my current problem on the other thread...

    Here are the pasted results:

    now here is my story/history:::

    This is a continuation of a multi-part discussion on "Excessive Read Write Overloading HDD" Excessive Read Write overloading HDD - Windows 7 Help Forums thread.


    I decided to move this section of the discussion off as it really would have a life of its own and I need to figure out a resolution of it before attempting to reinstall a new, working version of Windows 7 Professional version over the existing version, without losing any data, to fix many things that are going wrong (i.e. no Resource Monitor, no SMART reading on HD Tune program, etc)

    Here is what happened earlier in the life of the Laptop described in the system for me at the bottom of every page here on this site....


    On August 21, 2010 first installed OS (yes that was an OED) when I purchased the laptop with "home basic" Windows 7 on it and told them to remove the OS when they replaced the HDD and had the Professional version of Windows 7 installed on the new HDD

    I found and checked the Original Microsoft Box, that I purchased off the store shelf, with the original DVD/CD holographic impressed colors on disk inside the box too.

    My notes on the box say it was purchased in August, 2010 in the Blue curved top Windows 7 Professional Box (not an OEM installed product!)

    Got a Product Key card inside the box!

    Guess what?

    On January 21, 2012 Windows program "asked" for the product key (I don't remember "why") and
    I inputted the one in the box

    IT SAID INVALID!

    I got Windows/Microsoft on phone... they gave me a second Product Key to use
    It too was "invalid". They had to "go away" for a while to discuss what to "do" since I purchased it more than 2 years ago so it was not "returnable" for a new one.

    Microsoft called me back and I got a third Product Key March 8 , 2012 (yes I was without computer functioning 2 months or so while they were figuring this out).

    That worked. And was confirmed again January 20, 2014 when I was asked by the program "again"! to furnish my product key.

    So I guess that third version would be the product Key I will use to reinstall windows

    BUT... (despite The Deer Dude's post in another thread having confidence in "me")

    TheDeerDude said:
    I do believe the laptop could benefit from a fresh install of Windows 7 Professional x64 (what OP currently has on it) - for that, he would need to find the license key. I think the OP should be capable of doing this on its own, I believe in him :) (+installing drivers)

    I don't have the confidence I need that "nothing will go wrong" when I use the Product key from March 8, 2012. It is after all the third product key I received from Microsoft to use this same one Professional Windows 7 OS!

    I'm certain NO ONE at Microsoft will answer the phone today, in 2018 when I'm calling to ask about Windows 7 Professional re installing it. [Since last time I called c. 2016 they informed me then that since the product was ending in 2020, they did not consider helping me in any way at all!--bye!]

    And even if I manage to convince them to help me to get a new Product Key, the person switches me off to a computer voice will inform me that its $149 for "one" incident and $300 for a whole year's worth of incidents....."please enter your credit card at the beep---and turn your back" (You're right, I'm being sarcastic...the computer voice does not say "and turn your back".

    And I never know what to choose so having no funds for this... Thus I choose zero incidents.....

    So I lack the confidence to go on....

    But I made a new thread here, separate from my huge other thread over the past week, just in case anyone would prefer to have a discussion just about multiple product codes from Microsoft and the fact they never (except for me!) give you a new product code for the disk you purchased (I had to read the inner ring numbers to them to prove I had the real disk and not a photo or Xerox copy of them!!

    Hi XP,

    Well looking at that report
    seems like WAT is confusing itself

    The top 2 lines state its genuine
    Validation Code: 0
    Cached Online Validation Code: 0x0

    Futher down its missing critical registration info
    Event Time Stamp: N/A
    Admin Service: Not Registered - 0x80070005

    please instal KB971033,

    reboot rerun the MGdiag.

    not sure if this will clear the error as its showing as access denied - very strange
    can you post a screenshot
    C >> Windows >> system32 >> WAT > WatAdminservices.

    should be like mine

    notes
    if this error was present for the other 2 keys the same applies - valid keys bad WAT
    this is likely to be a factor in your read/write thread
    Belarc advisor will pull all your product keys
    Is that renamed W10/W7 backup still on your system im wondering if your system is repeatedly trying to remove it

    Thanks for the gentle reminder (cc to the person you copied to me) that I have not replied to your very detailed response to my question!

    I didn't mean for this thread to sit two days while I responded to the other thread(s). I also lost computer to BSOD twice and another weird twice Blank screen of death. So those delayed responding while I was figuring them out!

    I will do as you say and post a screenshot... Just wanted to let you know I'm back in regular windows 7 screens and will try what you suggest.

    I have currently NO problems with "genuine" windows or product keys! I was raising the question due to my impending need to use the same Installation DVD and 3rd Product Key if I re-install Windows 7 as my other thread people are advising me to do.

    Thanks! Will post a screenshot in a new post so whatever notification you get will be the screenshot and not no notification so I make it easy for you to find it! Thanks for helping me out!

    Sorry I jumped to the "easy" item first...

    I did not go to KB and try to read it and figure out what to do...

    I just did the WAT (Wat Admin Services) one as it was "easy" to do.

    But it says:

    Reinstalling Win 7 professional over old Win 7 Professional without-wat-wat-admin-serv-no-permissions-ps35593.jpg



    So now my question is "why"?

    I should post another thread called "I cannot do PERMISSIONS properly"

    Its always happened to me!

    XP Home

    XP Professional (two editions)

    Vista (not at home)

    Windows 7 (laptop at home)

    ALL give me 100% "you do not have permission!" notices every day of my life!

    I read the BOOKS! I have the MSFT guides and others written by Pogue, etc

    I read the online help pages!

    But I've given up!

    I really know that unless I have "someone else by my side" pressing the correct buttons in order every day of my life... I continually save pages and photos and music and sounds and just about everything else "wrong" every single day of my life.

    And 100000000's (millions) of wrong files can't be accessed if I don't have "permission"

    I'm only user on here.

    No other user is listed but it is the "public computer" for guests to dabble in when they need connection to internet, so others do use it but under the "one" user title.

    I do know how to "Run as Administrator" which sometimes does
    and most of time DOES NOT
    Solve the problem.

    I don't know if I mentioned it in the history of this laptop.... maybe see this topic.....but lots of posts and no way to "search them" that I'm aware of..

    History of laptop is that we think in 2010 "Best Buy/Geek Squad" installed the new retail version of Windows 7 Professional "wrong" and it took two years before I showed up on this site as no one else could figure out what was "wrong" with the Windows 7.

    And list of "how to solve it" was too daunting for me to follow---- same as today's in the link above...how to re-install Windows 7 over copy of Windows 7 without losing any data!

    Thanks for reading this.

    I'll see what advice you have.

    Will go look at the KB at least...but you can respond to my problem with Permissions above with advice....

    [Best advice I can give myself... keep your fingers OFF the computer "forever" and it will be fixed!)

    So what happens if my Windows 7 does not produce the desired "genuine" codes if prompted?

    It failed twice before!

    I don't know why!

    I have third Product Key.

    And I read this guy's posting that it "kills" pirated Windows 7..

    https://blog-archive.josephcs.com/wi...date-kb971033/

    Mine is the genuine in the box one!

    Purchased in the USA in 2010 off the shelf (just put up that day first time too!) so fresh boxes from Microsoft!

    So its not pirated....but I worry!

    Will I now "destroy" my Windows 7 and all its data? I have a backup from January... but no more room to make another Macrium backup as this current running of Windows has lots of bad things happening inside it.... DO I really want to keep it?

    Will I lose data?

    I need to buy first! A larger External HDD

    Then copy off what error filled Windows I got to preserve all the Apple iPad work I did since January 2018.... (and before too!)

    THEN I guess I can apply the KB 971033

    Hi Sigh......

    More my fault than yours ....ooops
    When your on the WatAminServ >> RIGHT click >> then select Properties,> then click on the Security tab.

    From your last post

    No other user is listed but it is the "public computer" for guests to dabble in when they need connection to internet, so others do use it but under the "one" user title.

    This leaves you WIDE OPEN to malware, accidental or not!!!
    I would suggest EVERYTIME its been used perform additional malware checks
    Malwarebytes/AdwRemover/JRT and an on line scan Eset- on line is good

    I would actually NOT keep any private data on it
    Would also perform a clean install quarterly


    A handy tool Tweaking.com its user friendly- he also has a help forum

    Part 2

    NO - that KB is part of MS genuine checks

    It will interact with the WATAdminserv file

    It can and does identify and block some pirated installs
    (on its release it did cause some problems, then again MS hasnt got a good update track record)

    The failures can also be caused by other programs especially AV's and corrupt downloads
    Without seeing the info whilst the OS is in a non-genuine state i can only make guesses.

    Don't worry about it. I said too much typing too fast.

    Important people. They'd be aghast if I hampered their ability to do what they needed to do on the computer and print out or make CD's or flash drives or whatever. They clean out their stuff when they do it and so its always back to normal.

    If its broken...no they don't help me. They just leave to the nearest pay as you go rental computer place and shell out the $$ to do the same thing they would have done here. Its a convenience we provide so not to get them angry or anything. NO they would never do anything bad as we know who they are and can trace it to them. More their embarrassment than ours. We're safe.

    Yes, I have Malwarebytes and Norton AV running "EVERY DAY" a quick scan just for that reason so I don't have to check especially after they have been here since I never know when they can drop on.

    Oh, right....forgot the screen shot I got from your new instructions:

    Hi Sigh....

    knew it wasn't your name - lightning the mood.

    Now its getting darker


    Those permissions HAVE been changed
    A picture is worth a thousand words

    2 things
    Everyone should NOT appear on that folder
    as for * i dont know of any symbol being a valid operator/user
    (unless its the TrustedInstaller name being changed- but by what?)


    Going back to my earlier post re security and "Guest Users" in my opinion your system has been altered
    (he said delicately)

    To be brutally honest, and you wanting to keep your guests happy, the BEST and fastest way to resolve this is to perform a clean install


    Incidentally if im right, and i havnt thoroughly read your other posts,
    This will cause
    High disk usage
    failure of external back-ups
    update failures
    sfc /scannow will not run
    BSOD - your system will run out of memory


    Now as an added security measure if i was you i would put a VM, Virtual Machine, on the comp and set that up for your guests usage
    as you allready have it on your comp, Oracle.

    Hi Torchwood!!

    A quick reply (not short) to let you know:
    1. I received and read your Reply post # 9 two days ago.

    2. Yes I'm very very concerned about the issues and recommendations you raise

    3. To inform you (and others) what my action plan is:

    QUESTION: What do you think of my plan?

    1st See the Excessive Read Write Overloading HDD thread: Excessive Read Write overloading HDD - Page 6 - Windows 7 Help Forums where I did a TEST of SMART etc of Laptop's Drive C; for its health rating, etc. Seatools (Its a Seagate Momentus Drive)

    2nd I need to post in a thread about choosing if I go to Windows 10 or stay with Windows 7 _______(Will fill it in when I respond to it eventually writing a long response!) ______________ I need to decide once and for all if I just re-initialize re-install the Windows 7 over my existing Windows 7 (as you just recommended a few times already!)
    or do I go and use this moment in time with a new HDD to go up to Windows 10 at same time

    I've not finished it yet, that's is why its number 1 to do it so I hope to stop teasing everyone and actually POST a reply there!

    3rd Step I need to go buy a LARGER HDD for future use and immediate use to use a 2 TB or so 3 TB one to make a Macrium copy of the HDD damaged as it is before I lose everything I've done since January and everything I've done for the Apple people and their upgrade to the new iPad from the old BROKEN!! iPad and broken backups (*you KNOW its a long story won't repeat it here again)


    4th Step. Then I have to copy off the HDD to that larger HDD as it is, containing all the current problems and bad sectors and data, since it is the latest work I've put into the drive.

    And I can copy off all my documents and my notes from documents I use while creating the "shorter" documents that I eventually posted in all three threads at WindowsSevenForum I do have so far.

    5th Finally! Then after I chose a pathway, THEN (if I choose to re-install Windows 7 over the old one) I can come back and follow your and others instructions on how to do this!)

    That is if you approve of the idea of first repairing the Windows 7 I got before trying to upgrade it to Windows 10 (making this a two step procedure).

    I don't know!

    Maybe its safer method that way.

    Especially when you consider that I try to follow the instructions. But very often I get choices that you did not anticipate! And I can't just leave the Computer stuck in the middle of a copying/repair process...running the HDD waiting for my "input" of choice 1 or choice 2.... when ZERO way to no one to ask Questions if anything goes wrong!!! on the process of either going Windows 7 to new Windows 7 install.

    OR If i'm going for taking the Windows 7 I have and upgrading to Windows 10

    QUESTION: Just to make that clear as if I ask it this way: maybe you know answer to that already.... Is it better to first "FIX" the Windows 7 before I upgrade to Windows 10 assuming that may only carry upward any errors already on the Windows 7?

    Or does Windows/ Microsoft manage to fix and repair all damage to Windows 7 when it upgrades to Windows 10 so that is the better method if I decide to go up to Windows 10 just do it and expand up to Windows 10 just like that!!

    Thanks for reading all of this and helping out as always Torchwood!

    Have a great day!

    XP VM User

    P.S.: I took two days to write this far....so I thought I might as well add in some quotes from your last post that were easiest to respond quickly to as well so you know my reactions and we can discuss them further.......

    Those permissions HAVE been changed
    A picture is worth a thousand words

    2 things
    Everyone should NOT appear on that folder
    as for * i dont know of any symbol being a valid operator/user
    (unless its the TrustedInstaller name being changed- but by what?)
    I have no idea what program is doing it! I use Norton Internet Security paid for and up to date always and scanning every night! I also have Malwarebytes scanning every night at a different time.
    NO! I know when they are both set to scan and I do not complain about the HDD light running excessively when they are doing that (and even if they miss the time, sometimes one of them I think its Norton will run it the moment it gets notice the computer is turned on. I always turn it on and let it sit about an hour to make certain nothing else wants to use the HDD before I need to use it. When I say HDD light was running 24/7 I mean it! 24/7 no matter when I turned it on or off and what its doing is unknown as Applications on Task Manager are zero, !! and Processes (when I am not online or doing anything and the light was running all show CPU is using "00" and doing "nothing" almost at all....yet the HDD light was running and I can hear the drive spinning hard! So what mysterious program is doing this? A spy program ? A key Logger? I thought of all of these....but my primitive tools I have to check for those all came up empty.! I should have mentioned that in the other thread I guess ...might transfer this over but the conversation here went that way! Thanks!

    Going back to my earlier post re security and "Guest Users" in my opinion your system has been altered
    (he said delicately)

    To be brutally honest, and you wanting to keep your guests happy, the BEST and fastest way to resolve this is to perform a clean install
    The ones who use it (VERY VERY RARELY Not every day but its there and I always know when they do that as they ask first. Just saying no password needed to get in. They are very highly respected people here in the US! No one would sacrifice their life or career to mess up my freebie machine! I'm doing so much else for them anyway that can really mess up their days, they would never want to do anything to "upset" me so don't worry. I just honestly have to say "public" as others do use it and they all are much better at computers than I am, so I keep scanning in case they do something "wrong" or click somewhere they should not.

    Incidentally if im right, and i havnt thoroughly read your other posts,
    This will cause
    High disk usage
    failure of external back-ups
    update failures
    sfc /scannow will not run
    BSOD - your system will run out of memory
    YES! See some of the screens I just got (computer acting up again I'll post them later!!!)

    Now as an added security measure if i was you i would put a VM, Virtual Machine, on the comp and set that up for your guests usage
    as you allready have it on your comp, Oracle.
    Roy
    Great idea! One problem! THAT is why I appeared here at WindowsSevenForum for needing assistance with using VM on the Windows 7 version (and yes I got recommended to go to Oracle Virtual Box)
    BUT!

    I still suffer the same problems! [The whole concept of "using" my computer is for these important guests purposely to get free printouts and free internet usage without the guests being kicked out to go sit with the rest of the public and stand in line and wait for a computer to be available at one of the local computer places where you can use internet and print out! Its a Courtesy! So using my regular system works for printer and internet NOT either VM on Windows 7 nor Oracle Virtual Box (again not using it correctly and no one to ask why!) ]

    Maybe back in 2012 my computer was damaged back then as I still can't PRINT or USE INTERNET Or the SIM CARD (Unless its broken!) from the VM programs no matter what I do
    (I can show some screenshots recently here:

    I think my Bluetooth is now "broken" as well even though I barely even used it and I get "Calls" that are broken links to Bluetooth (forgot to take a screenshot of that one) and this other one and third one... They alternate... I may or may not get them all at any particular start/restart on it AND NOW it says I'm out of memory "again" Have to close and restart JUST as you predicted above

    Ok done with P.S. for now!
