i need to activate windows but when i try to open the activation program, the activation program
doesnt open,how can i access activation?

To launch the Activation utility manually use Start - Run and enter
the following command in the dialog box:

%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /A

Note: You can probably abbreviate this command to just:

c:\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /A


If that does not work then you may need to repair the registration of
the .dll files used for activation:

Use Start- Run and enter the following text in the dialog box:
regsvr32.exe regwizc.dll

Then do it again with the following text:
regsvr32.exe licdll.dll

Good luck
