I just discovered that I am unable to run Windows Update thanks to Microsoft implementing "Genuine Windows Validation" on their Windows Update Website. Thanks very much Microsoft. LOL...
It appears that the "type" of registration code is deemed invalid because it is the type of registration code that is only used in companies that use volume licensing. Volume licensing means that the company receives one master product registration code and they can install it on X amount of computers within their company.
What happens to employees when their company gives them a pc or laptop to take home to do work. They can not run Windows Update now because as soon as Microsoft notices that their product key is a company issued volume license and they are a home user then they will not be allowed to update their OS with the recent Microsoft security updates.
So, that ultimatly means that we will have pc users logged on to the Internet with computers with Microsoft Operating Systems that are not up to date and can be compromised by all of the latest security hacks and possibly create DOS attacks and spread viruses galore. Is that what Microsoft wants??
