Hello John,
I don't, currently, know how to fix your issue. I do, however, have some options for you (and their Pros and Cons). But first some background on the issue.
We are seeing more of the "The Software Licensing Service has stopped (and won't restart)" issue recently. Although the Software Licensing Service, itself, is part of the WGA sub-system, the process for starting and stopping services is a Core Vista system and would normally be supported by Vista Support. However this issue is affecting the Genuine status of our users, I would be nice to get to the bottom of why this is happening.
We have found that we can categorize this into sub-issues by the error message the user gets when he/she tries to restart the Service. We currently know the reason (and the fix) for the "System Error 3" and "System Error 2" types, but we do not have much information on your "System Error 5" type.
This brings me to the options I mentioned.
1) You can create a (no cost) Service Request (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52029), and work (by email) with a WGA Support Engineer to troubleshoot the issue. The goals of this option would be to first, find out as much information on this variation of the issue, and then, try to fix the issue on your computer.
Pro: You would be helping us understand and develop a fix for this issue.
Con: It will, most likely, take longer to finally resolve you issue, then the other options.
2) You can go to http://support.microsoft.com and contact Vista support for assistance. The goal of this option would be solely to resolve your issue.
Pro: Probably faster resolution then option 1). Hopefully resolution would not involve reinstalling Vista.
Con: Since you are using a Retail copy of Vista, you may still be under the Free Support period, but if the no-cost support period has expired, any support they provided would, most likely, be paid support.
3) You could reinstall Vista. The goal of this option is to get you resolved as quickly as possible.
Pro: Fastest resolution
Con: Having to backup all your important files, reinstalling all your applications, resetting all your setting back to the way you want them and so on.
If you decide on Option 1, thank you for assisting us in getting an understanding of this issue.
If you decide on one of the other options, good luck and please accept my apologies for me not being able to resolve the issue for you.
Thank you
Stephen

Hello John,
Thank you for posting with us today :-). The problem is that your Vista's Software Licensing Service has stopped. Vista uses this service to check itself and confirm it is Genuine. When the service is stopped, Vista is unable to confirm its own Genuine status and may show Genuine or Non-Genuine. The fact that the Service has stopped is also, most likely, the cause of other issues you may be experiencing (such as not having access to the Control Panel).Normally this is not a big problem, since you can just restart the Service. However, we have seen a number of users that receive an error when they attempt to restart the Service. This indicates a more serious 'root cause' to the service having stopped.
What I would like you to do is to try to restart the service using the 'Service Restart' steps, below. If the service won't restart, you will receive an error.
Service Restart steps:
(If you have access to the Start button):
1) Click the Start button
2) Type: cmd in the Start Search field
3) At the top the Start window, you will see cmd.exe
4) Right Click cmd.exe and select Run as Administrator
5) Type: net start slsvc
(If you do not have access to the Start button):
1) Click the option that launches an Internet Browser
2) A Browser will open, type: %windir%\system32 into the address field
3) Find the file cmd.exe
4) Right Click on the cmd.exe and select Run as Administrator
5) Type: net start slsvc
A) If the error message is "System Error 3, The system cannot find the path specified." or "System Error 2, The system cannot find the file specified" then go to the main Vista Validation forum page http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/genuinevista/threads/, look in the announcement section and follow the steps found in thread "Fix for ‘Software Licensing service Has Stopped’ on some Vista 64bit systems"
B) If you get any other error, please follow and answer the below steps and questions
What was the Full error message, you received, when you attempted to restart the Service?
Have you recently installed or replaced any Hardware or Software?
Do you have any Registry Cleaner software installed? (include the name and version)
Do you have a Anti-Virus program that is up-to-date with all updates and signature files?
If so, run a complete scan. Did it find anything?
Also go to http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm and run a complete scan using the OneCare Safety Scan for Windows Vista. Did it find anything?

When i tried starting restarting the service i got system error 54273. The only recent software that was installed was sp2 (service pack 2). the only type of registry cleaner i have is from McAfee (trail version), same with the anti-virus program and its up to date. i did a scan and it did found some things and i remove them using the anti-virus program. But i still have the same issue.... what do i do next?Friday, June 12, 2009 9:10 PM
