Guest pintree3 Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Error Code: 0x8007007E Windows Genuine Validation tool (KB892130) did not install I know why: I had deleted (KB892130) from the registry as well as all entries of LegitCheckControl.dll and wgacustom.dll and the equivalent files in Windows were deleted. I also deleted the entries in the log file referring to above. Why I did the above. a week ago I formatted the HDD and reinstalled Windows XP home SP2. Windows Correctly identified my legit copy of Widows. Since SP was added as well as other updates. It did the same for all Microsoft Office updates SP3 and others. All that is until I tried to install some plug-ins. Now suddenly The validation assumed I was no longer legit. Deleting this validation in the Add/Remove programs was not possible. So I did the above deletions based on a google search. So now what? since based on this error I won't be able to update again.
