Securing Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 services HOW TO

Alec, I've found two settings in oyur guide that don't work well with my computer:

UserProfile Hive Cleanup Service
DHCP Client

Both of the above need to be set to local system in order for them to work correctly (seems unusual considering that M$ puts DHCP client in that list...)

For DHCP I get the message "Error 1079.The account specified is different from the account specified for other services running in the same process." Not too sure how I can conquer that, guessing that it's linked to the whole svchost.exe generic process.

 

Windows 10 will not activate Error code 0x803F7001


Possibly there can be the problem with Microsoft activation Server, so your Windows 10 is not activated. In this scenario, you need to wait and verify if it is the issue from Microsoft’s side. But if you are getting error code 0x803f7001, you can also try these steps:

1. Open Settings app. Then go to Update and security > Activation screen > Change product.
2. Type your Windows edition product key and click Next.
3. You’ll get We couldn’t activate Windows error message.
4. Retry steps 1-3 then type your 25-characters unique product key.
5. Wait for the process to complete, Windows 10 is activated.

Hope something helps this problem
