Windows Vista 30 Day Activation Period Finished

Hello, everyone!

We have a Windows Vista Upgrade PC installed, and more than 30 days ago.

Recently, Windows Vista began to complain again about activation not being
done (this after updates were installed on the system) and today it refuses
to let me login, offering the "infamous" Limited mode.

Our worker that used the PC did not warn us about the error, and Windows
vista kept complaining silently for days..

Any ideias on how to solve the problem? We have a correct product key that
we used in the installation process.

Hi Ivo,

This tutorial will show you how to get out of the reduced functionality mode. Afterwards you will need to activate Vista to prevent this from happening again.

Reduced Functionality Mode

Hope this helps you,
