    Had my laptop running same version of W7 for years. It's an official copy from Microsoft direct. Yesterday a load of updates installed and today I'm getting the 'it needs to be validated' box - when I do, it's not accepted. Here is the log:

    Same thing happened to me today after a Microsoft update.  Win 7 Professional purchased by me for my ASROCK Z77 MB by me personally with the shiny seal and all. Microsoft stuff is crap. If they had a Photoshop for Ubunto to Red Hat or whatever I would ditch it ASAP.  Windows is beast for S/W developers like myself. 

    How many other victims of the last push are out there.

    I feel the same way after yesterday. Chasing and targeting your customers for someones "counterfeiting" is ridiculous. Go after the pirates themselves! Why in late 2014 is a company STILL charging $149.99 for an operating system?!! Why not just charge $29.99 for it? That in itself eliminates the potential for pirating. I'm moving to OSX soon and Android is coming along nicely. I'm getting so fed up with Windows because it is such a target for malware then Microsoft has the audacity to make one re activate the software after reformatting? Come on Microsoft, get real! Leave Windows 7 users alone and spend all your time and money making Win 10 better!

    MS have since changed their advice on  this patch...

    See the notes in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3004394
    - it is not advised to uninstall the update if already installed as it may
    cause other issues.

    MS have since
    released a new patch designed to resolve the issues caused bythe failed patch..

    Oh dear, I already uninstalled it after reading the response to other problems. Too impatient! Anyway, uninstalling it has had no effect, I still get the 'needs validating' box back up after start up. I've tried downloading the other patch mentioned that uninstalls it & run that but nothing happens beyond the 'allow the programme to make changes box' after double clicking. Presumably nothing happens since the original update is not there. Not sure what to do now?

    UPDATE: I restored my computer to the pre-deletion of KB3004394 & ran the fix suggested above and I can at least so far check for updates successfully and no request validation box has popped up so far. Unfortunately, I can't confirm by attempting to validate as I accidentally hit 'block' in the browser & can't work out how to reverse that! Anyway, I think the fact that I can check for updates indicates all seems to be fixed...for the moment anyway. Thanks very much for your help.

    Firefox and WGA don't get on too well anyhow - try using Internet Explorer instead for validation www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate
