i recently got windows XP and i have to activate it everytime i want to log on. all of my friends say this shouldn't be happening(you should only have to activate it once), and i'm getting tired of doing it. what can i do to fix this?
 
Hi,

Start/run regsvr32 regwizc.dll
Then start/run regsvr32 licdll.dll

If this doesn't help try these steps:

Start the computer in Safe mode by hitting F8 at bootup. Start/run regedit.
Delete the following keys:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Cryptography\Providers
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-20\Software\Microsoft\Cryptography\Providers

Exit the registry editor, restart normally.
