Remove WGA Windows XP Download

Remove WGA will enable you to easily remove the Microsoft “Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications” tool, which is calling home and connect to MS servers every time you boot. Futures updates of this notification tool will (officially) setup the connection rate to once every two weeks.

Once the WGA Notification tool has checked your OS and has confirmed you had a legit copy, there is no decent point or reason to check it again and again every boot.

Moreover, connecting to Microsoft brings security issue for corporate networks, and privacy issues for everyone. It is also unclear which information are transmitted (Microsoft published an official answer, but an individual study brought some questions).

All of that, along the fact that Microsoft used deceptive ways to make you install this tool (it was told you it was an urgent security update, whereas it is a new installation giving you no extra security) makes me calling this tool a spyware.

Remove WGA Main Features

• Tell you if the WGA notification tool is active on your system
• Allows you to remove the WGA notification tool from your system
• Accept the “-silent” command line parameter to silently check if the WGA notification tool is active on your system, and popup only if it is found (usefull for checking automatically at startup for instance)

Please Note: Remove WGA only removes the notification part, phoning home, and does not touch the Validation part. And some anti-virus software may label this application as virus, but that’s scam warning! This application won’t harm your computer – I have try it too!
