Causes and resolutions
0x8004FE21 This computer is not running genuine Windows
Possible cause
This issue can occur for several reasons. The most likely reason is that language packs (MUI) have been installed on computers that are running Windows editions that are not licensed for additional language packs.
Note
This issue is not necessarily an indication of tampering. Some applications can install multi-lingual support even when that edition of Windows is not licensed for those language packs.)
This issue may also occur if Windows has been modified by malware to allow additional features to be installed. This issue may also occur if certain system files are corrupted.
Resolution
To resolve this issue, you must reinstall the operating system.
0x80070005 Access denied
The full text of this error message resembles the following:
Access denied. The requested action requires elevated privileges.
Possible cause
User Account Control (UAC) prohibits activation processes from running in a non-elevated Command Prompt window.
Resolution
Run slmgr.vbs from an elevated command prompt. To do this, on the Start menu, right-click cmd.exe, and then select Run as administrator.
0x8007007b DNS name does not exist
Possible cause
This issue may occur if the KMS client cannot find the KMS SRV resource records in DNS.
Resolution

0xC004F035 Invalid Volume License Key
The full text of this error message resembles the following:
Error: Invalid Volume License Key. In order to activate, you need to change your product key to a valid Multiple Activation Key (MAK) or Retail key. You must have a qualifying operating system license AND a Volume license Windows 7 upgrade license, or a full license for Windows 7 from a retail source. ANY OTHER INSTALLATION OF THIS SOFTWARE IS IN VIOLATION OF YOUR AGREEMENT AND APPLICABLE COPYRIGHT LAW.
The error text is correct, but is ambiguous. This error indicates that the computer is missing a Windows marker in its BIOS that identifies it as an OEM system that is running a qualifying edition of Windows. This information is required for KMS client activation. The more specific meaning of this code is 'Error: Invalid Volume License Key'
Possible cause
Windows 7 Volume editions are licensed only for upgrade. Microsoft does not support installing a Volume operating system on a computer that does not have a qualifying operating system installed.
Resolution
In order to activate, you need to do one of the following:
- Change your product key to a valid Multiple Activation Key (MAK) or Retail key. You must have a qualifying operating system license AND a Volume license Windows 7 upgrade license, or a full license for Windows 7 from a retail source.NoteIf you receive error 0x80072ee2 when you attempt to activate, use the phone activation method that follows instead.
- Activate by phone by following these steps:
- Run slmgr /dti and then record the value of the Installation ID.
- Contact the Microsoft Licensing Activation Centers and provide the Installation ID in order to receive a Confirmation ID.
- To activate by using the Confirmation ID, run slmgr /atp <Confirmation ID>.
Error No License Keys Installed Windows
0xC004F038 The count reported by your Key Management Service (KMS) is insufficient
The full text of this error message resembles the following:
The Software Protection Service reported that the computer could not be activated. The count reported by your Key Management Service (KMS) is insufficient. Please contact your system administrator.
Possible cause
The count on the KMS host is not high enough. For Windows Server, the KMS count must be greater than or equal to 5. For Windows (client), the KMS count must be greater than or equal to 25.
Resolution
Before you can use KMS to activate Windows, you must have more computers in the KMS pool. To obtain the current count on the KMS host, run Slmgr.vbs /dli.
0xC004F039 The Key Management Service (KMS) is not enabled
The full text of this error message resembles the following:
The Software Protection Service reported that the computer could not be activated. The Key Management Service (KMS) is not enabled.
Possible cause
KMS did not respond to the KMS request.
Resolution
