How to remove Windows Genuine Advantage notifications

ADVERTISEMENT

RemoveWGA is a tiny application(14KB) to easily remove Microsoft Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications, or WGA notifications.

Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications connects to Microsoft servers every time your Windows OS starts up, to ensure your copy of Windows is valid. However, allowing the check every time you start your computer can be time consuming – not to mention that it serves no purpose (your OS would be verified once, and that is all they should require). Privacy advocates may also raise eyebrows about the kind of information transmitted to Microsoft.

Note that Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications is different from WGA validation tool. RemoveWGA only removes the notification tool (that connects to MS servers).

  1. i tried running the “Download RemoveWGA” & an error came on. now i cant remove the program. it keeps saying that it is running. please help me to delete or uninstall the program.

  2. @Ajay: If you’re trying to make a debate, I’m not interested. This post specifically mentions that one check is enough for anti-piracy operations, and multiple checks waste time.
