So i been watching something

windows 11 anti piracy error

Hi I just bought a legitimate copy of Windows 11 But came up with the anti-piracy Checker I When I configured it was the real system It come on with the anti-piracy screen So I had to instal then another copy and this time it didn't came up Which is good That's all

 

Hi, can someone proof me, if Windows Anti-piracy screens are Real?

Hi Jaspreet

hmm, but I thought, for example, if you buy some pirate version of windows, and microsoft then finds out when you connect to the internet, will you get that Anti-piracy screen? above windows xp(because as i remember, microsoft had very protected his products, to being faked, or modified), or will the FBI come right away? for example xd

i know also another story, when my friend(it was a girl), on 1999, and she had Windows 98, and she browse up, on the internet(in internet explorer 5? idk now for sure), and she saw one AD, that was something about food or what was that, she wan't it know about, what that was, and when she clicked on it, it was a scam, and it was a illegal site.. so.. she closed up the IE fast she can, she also closes all Programs, but, it was to late, and she got Anti-piracy Screen too(or.. not anti-piracy, but just a screen where was "Please wait for the Police"), and then about 7 minutes, she had 3 policeman on your home, and start searching about her PC. But she was then okay.. the policeman say to her, if you do this again, it will be a very big problem.

so.. is this screen also in modern windowses? or if you do some illegal things today, you will only got a letter?(yeah.. weird answer, but it is same to the Anti-piracy screen )

and if it is a truth, so i have many questions:
1.how even microsoft will know about it is a pirated version?
2.had someone a Fake Anti-piracy screen?
3.can he even detect Piracy and Illegal stuff(more in 90's) without network?

4.and how do they EVEN look like?

Thanks again for reply me .

windows 11 anti piracy error

Dear Tom Laverick,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community!

I understand that you encountered an issue with the anti-piracy checker while installing an original copy of Windows 11, but not with the other copy. I’m glad to hear that you were able to resolve it!

The Anti-Piracy Checker is a feature specifically designed to prevent the use of counterfeit software. If you’re seeing this message despite having a legitimate copy installed, it suggests that your Windows may not be activated correctly, which triggers the anti-piracy message.

Should you experience this issue in the future, I recommend backing up your important data and attempting a clean install of Windows. Furthermore, please ensure to download an image from Microsoft’s official website or install it using the official Media Creation Tool. Images from other sources may pose potential security risks and activation issues.

If you need to reinstall your system, please refer to the following article for detailed instructions on system reinstallation:

I hope this information is helpful! If you have any other questions or require further assistance, please don’t hesitate to respond.
