Sudden problem on parent's PC

At boot up I (they) are getting a windows activation error?

The message says : A problem is preventing windows from accurately checking
the licence for this computer. Error Code 0x80040017.

I only visit them a few times a year and it has been working fine for them
up till about a week ago. I searched on that error code and cannot seem to
find anything. Ant help or ideas would be appreciated.

Not sure if this will help you or not

Error code 0x8009001a - When trying to boot the computer you get an error
message saying "A problem is preventing Windows from accurately checking the
license for this computer:-

Go to start/run, and type
regsvr32.exe regwizc.dll
Click OK, then type,
regsvr32.exe licdll.dll
and click OK.
