- You can’t turn on system protection for your HDD in safe mode!!!
- Slmgr.vbs cannot be started in safemode
Files that should be in place if you want to activate Windows 7:
Default: C:/Windows/System32/
slwga.dll
slmgr.vbs
slui.exe (rename .bak to slui.exe)
slui.exe.mui (in subfolder “en-US”)
Is your Windows 7 copy licensed?
Enter “winver” into search field and this should show up:
