Thanks for the response Satya P. I succesfully completed your procedure and so far, I have not received the message. If it remains this way through Friday, I will repost and consider this issue resolved. Thanks again!

Hi Satya, I have tried following your steps.

It says "The boot configuration data store could not be opened. Access is denied."

Kindly advise.

Thanks.

I think I may have gotten that message the first time I tried this solution. I was able to get around that by right clicking on the command prompt option under Start-All Programs-Accessories and choosing Run as Adminstrator. I have not had any other Windows issues since I followed this procedure.

Hi Satya,

It's been close to a week now and no more "Not Genuine" messages. I consider this issue resolved. Thank you!!!

Hello Satya. I thought this had resolved my issue but unfortunately the "Not Genuine" message has reappeared tonight. Please help. Thanks!

I did the first step (command prompt, typed the commands, got the error above as well.  I've had my DELL for several years, this just popped up.

restarted, now gone (original issue)

Hi Celio123,

The above given process will not delete Microsoft Word or antivirus unless you are re-installing the operating system manually using the CD. Please back up all your data, files, music and pictures etc on a external hard drive before you re-install windows.

Please reply if you have any further questions.
