Removing Windows Genuine Advantage From the Registry

#
Step 1

Click on the "Start" button and then the "Run" icon.
#
Step 2

Type "regedit" without the quotation marks in the "Run" text field and click "OK." Your register editor program will now display.
#
Step 3

Navigate to the following registry file: "My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify." You can find that key by first clicking on "My Computer," then "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE," then the "Software" folder, followed by the "Microsoft" folder, which brings you to the "Windows NT" folder, then the "Current Version" folder, followed by "WinLogon" and finally the "Notify" folder.
#
Step 4

Find the "WgaLogon" folder inside the "Notify" folder and right-click on it. Choose the "Delete" option and left-click on it. You have now removed the program files from the registry.
#
Step 5

Restart your computer for the changes to take effect. The program should now be removed from your registry.
