First, all the credit is for "PAYMYRENT" he found out how to do it.

I only tested it and wrote the instructions a bit more clearly.

Reset your Rearm count, run Windows 7 Forever without cracks
of course you can use windows update to download updates and it pass WAT.

You can reset your rearm count (back to 4) how many times you want.
so you will have windows 7 running forever in trial mode.
(each "slmgr /rearm" command give you another 30 days)
everytime your rearm count is over use the following instructions to reset your rearms count back to 4:


Instructions:
*be careful if you dont get it right your going to have to do a clean install*

1) Stop the Software Protection service -sppsvc:
(type services.msc in the search box and run it, look for "Software Protection" service and right click on it > Stop).

2) Move your tokens.dat to your desktop
(go to: C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\ Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
right click on tokens.dat click CUT and past it to your desktop)
*you may need to take ownership of the file if you can't move it to your desktop

3) Go to C:\Windows\System32
LOOK for 2 hidden files with this extention ".C7483456-A289-439d-8115-601632D005A0"
move these two files to your desktop.
*you may need to take ownership of the files if you can't move them to your desktop
*if you can't find the files, make sure on "folder options" that you can see hidden and system files.

4) Start the Software Protection service -sppsvc:
(type services.msc in the search box and run it, look for "Software Protection" service and right click on it > Start).

5) Open command prompt as admin and run "slmgr /dlv"

6) Stop the Software Protection service again.

7) Put the files on your desktop back to their place and and replace them.
tokens.dat to:
C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\ Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
and the 2 files to:
C:\Windows\System32

8) Install your default product key.
open command prompt as admin and run "slmgr /ipk XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX"
change "XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX" to your edition default key:
Ultimate - D4F6K-QK3RD-TMVMJ-BBMRX-3MBMV
Professional - HYF8J-CVRMY-CM74G-RPHKF-PW487
Home Premium - RHPQ2-RMFJH-74XYM-BH4JX-XM76F
Home Basic - YGFVB-QTFXQ-3H233-PTWTJ-YRYRV

[PAYMYRENT]

[tuvi123]

He allow me to post it, you can be sure I would not post it without asking him first.

I tested it and write the instructions a bit more clearly.
it works.

PAYMYRENT
I don't know, after I stop sppsvc I did not take ownership of the files and I can still cut the files to desktop.

[PAYMYRENT]

depends i guess on my pc i had to take ownership.

if it doesnt work the first time just take ownership

hows that?

[tuvi123]

PAYMYRENT
OK I have edited the guide.
btw-
really great job!
this will sure come in handy!

I'm sure it's not that hard to make a program that will do this automatically.

[PAYMYRENT]

i was planning on it lol

I know, it's stupid question for me... what do you mean "don't forget to take ownership of the files" I don't understand
