- Windows stores the activation information in two files in the c: windows system32 folder: Wpa.dbl and Wpa.bak. If those files are locked, or permissions are incorrect, Windows may not be able to save its activation information. You might also want to check the following registry keys: HKEYLOCALMACHINE SOFTWARE MICROSOFTNT CurrentVersion Winlogon.
The simple hack will make your Windows XP always genuine and activated, by simply routing the validation callback to your own PC.
One new feature in Windows XP that has caused great concern is Windows Product Activation (WPA). There are a great many rumors, and much misinformation, from which you might be led to think that WPA is going to call Microsoft every day and say just what you are doing with your computer; that, if you make any changes at all to your computer hardware, the machine will be instantly disabled;.
Universal and All-in-One Way to Make Windows Activated (Passed WPA), Disable and Remove WGA Validation Tool (KB892130) and WGA Notifications (KB905474), plus Bypass and Skip Genuine Windows Validation required when Download and Installation of Software for Genuine Licensed Microsoft Customers
Note: This method most likely works on Windows XP SP2 (Service Pack 2) only. If you still haven’t upgrade to SP2, you can download Windows XP Service Pack 2 that no need any validation to download and install via direct download link.
- Download the
WindowsLicense.rar or wpa_registry.rar(links and downloads removed due to complaint from Microsoft) archive files which contains the same registry’s registration file with .reg extension. - Extract the archive to retrieve the registration file.
- Double click on the registry entry file (with .reg extension), and answer Yes when asked whether want to add the information to the registry to hack the registry.

You should be able to pass all validation of Windows Genuine Advantage program required at anywhere, including Windows Update or Microsoft Update, Microsoft Download Center, validate with Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool, validate from Genuine Microsoft Windows online, setup installation of WGA apps and etc. Of course, until the next Microsoft update.
The registration file actually put in the following registry keys and branches to the Windows registry:

If you can’t download the files above, simply open any text editor, copy and paste the above text (make sure the format is text only and not a rich text, as the quotation marks (which is distorted by WordPress) matter to make the registration file you created yourself works), and the save the file with .reg extension. The double click on the .reg you created to apply the registry trick.
Note: Some users reported that the hack on the registry trick is erased, reverted or reset once reboot or restart your PC. If so, use the patch or crack listed below for your version of WGA.
Make Windows Genuine and Legally Licensed by Changing Windows XP Product Key (CD Key)
A bit tough method, as most likely the Windows XP license key or CD key or volume license key (VLK) that is leaked where you can find on the web is already or will be blocked and blacklisted by Microsoft. However, if you can find a OEM PC preinstalled with genuine Windows or computer that installed with legal and activated copy of Windows, you can retrieve the unique Windows Product Key or CD key from the PC and share to use the product license key on your copy of Windows. Of course, it’s against the TOS (Terms of Service) for Windows OS, and not advisable.
If you still want to try to find a valid VLK or product key serial of Windows, and use and update the valid key to your non genuine and non legal copy of Windows XP, visit this article for complete list of tools and utilities that can be used to retrieve or modify and change the Windows XP Product CD Key.
