There are several tricks to avoid, delay, disable activation, with varying degrees of success, such as extending the evaluation period, install Vista in a future year, replacing the license files with the versions of the Release Candidate (RC), activate using a KMS server (key admisitración Service) and even set up a local KMS server in a virtual machine for activation.

This small guide explains definitely a way to stop the countdown 30 days Microsoft allows us to activate the Windows Vista. Thus, full functionality will keep forever. And most important, since the DVD of all editions of Windows Vista is exactly the same, whatever the version we buy or we ship with a PC or laptop again, we can install and use a full version or different from the we had at home. Incidentally, we can still access Windows Update without problems.

To make the process we follow these steps:

1. Install Windows Vista (Ultimate edition or any other) without entering the SERIAL NUMBER

2. We must apply the trick of the year 2099. To do this click on:

- Start button -> All Programs -> Accessories
- Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as Administrator

(If the UAC or User Account Control is enabled and skip a warning, click Continue)

3. At the command prompt, type date and press enter. You will see something like the following:

C: WindowsSystem32> date
The current date is: 08/09/2007
Enter new date:

Type a date in 2099, for example, now

08/09/2099

4. Now type cscript slmgr.vbs-rearm. You will see something similar to:

C: WindowsSystem32> cscript slmgr.vbs-rearm
Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.7
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

The command has been completed successfully.
To make effective changes, please restart the system.

It is important that, at this point, restart the computer and ignore the warning.

5. Then write the new date and press enter, to return the date to its current state.

C: WindowsSystem32> date
The current date is: 08/09/2099
Enter new date:

Enter the date that had previously, in this case:

08/09/2007

6. Exit the command prompt by typing exit. Remember not to restart the computer time.

7. Download the following file from one of these links:

StopTimer.zip, StopTimer.zip, StopTimer.zip or StopTimer.zip (torrent).

8 Open it and extract the two files should contain: Vista test crack.exe and TimerStop.sys

Run with administrator privileges by right clicking on Vista test crack.exe

9. Click the Test button, and a message saying 4 timers are stopped. At this time, the counter should be frozen. Check with slmgr.vbs-dlv command, the number of minutes should remain constant after an interval of time. In this case, continue the following steps to run the "medicine" on every Windows startup.

10. In the Vista test crack.exe window, click on the Install button. A message saying Service installed if everything was done correctly.

The medicine will now copy the file to a folder stoptimer.sys patched system and install a new service called TimerStop to stop kernel-mode counters in the system file spsys.sys.

11. Exit the Vista test crack.exe and restart the PC.

12. The process really is over.

It can be verified similarly to the step 9, with slmgr.vbs-dlv. Or have intuitive yet comfortable, change the date or wait for the next few days and see in My Computer properties that we are continuing 30 days for activation.

With the "medicine" will have been entered in the registry as follows:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMControlSet001ServicesTimerStop]
? Type? = Dword: 00000001
? Start? = Dword: 00000002
? ErrorControl? = Dword: 00000000
? ImagePath? = Hex (2): 5c, 00.3 f 00.3 f 00.5 c, 00,45,00,3 a, 00.5 c, 00,57,00,69,00,6 e, 00,
64,00,6 f, 00,77,00,73,00,5 c, 00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6 d, 00,33,00,32,

79,00,73,00,00,00
? DisplayName? =? TimerStop?
