i had to get it reformatted and they loaded a fake copy. I still haev the sticker... what can i do, can i re-enter the sticker from it?
sorry i'm a noob | there are a few way to change your key...like magic jelly beans
but the sticker is likely an OEM key which may or may not work with the pirated version installed on your machine now

You can't back out of it and uninstalling still won't undo it. You'll likely have to reinstall. Microsoft info link | just came across this one today, thanks for the heads up
all you have to do is right click the update, then "hide update".

I'm running 7 Home Premium on my desktop downstairs. I also have a new copy (Actual DVD + key) for 7 Professional, that I'm debating what I want to do with.
I bought both, and they were definitely worth buying. Please don't lump everyone else in with your pirating ways.

still there if you're in university.
if you have a buddy in BCIT/UBC/SFU comp sci, just bug them for a free copy of Win7 Pro if they're not using it already. MSDNAA ftw!  | |
