In de negende editie van The Penguin guide to jazz recordings (1646 p./2008) worden 200 albums apart genoemd onder de noemer Core collection. Dit gerenommeerde naslagwerk verschijnt sinds 1992 om de twee jaren. Er worden duizenden en duizenden cd's op een rijtje gezet. Elke titel krijgt een tot vier sterren. **** Very fine: an outstanding record that yields consistent pleasure and is a notable example of the artists's work Tweehonderd van deze cd's worden extra naar voren gehaald onder de noemer Core collection. Die treft u hieronder aan. Crown Daarnaast worden nog enkele andere cd's naar voren gehaald In a very few cases we have chosen to award a special token of merit. It takes the form of a crown. This is to denote records we feel a special adminraion of affection for: a purely personal choice, which we hope our readers will deem as such. We hope our readers will indulge this whim (aldus samensteller Brian Morton) (HvD, woensdag 20 januari 2010)

The Windows 7 Validation Tool—officially known as Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) —was designed by

"RemoveWAT"

Initially, it caught a massive number of users off guard. Simple "keygens" stopped working overnight. However, the cracking community adapted. The most famous countermeasure was the tool, which essentially stripped the Validation Tool entirely from the operating system, rendering the system unable to check its own legitimacy. Another method involved sophisticated "Bootloaders" (like the famous Windows Loader by Daz) that emulated the BIOS SLIC tables of major manufacturers like Dell or HP, tricking the Validation Tool into thinking the OS was pre-installed on a legitimate machine.

Part 5: Is the Validation Tool Still Relevant in 2024?

• Check Status: slmgr /dli (light info) or slmgr /dlv (detailed licensing info).
• Install Key: slmgr /ipk YOUR-PRODUCT-KEY
• Activate Online: slmgr /ato
• Display Confirmation ID: slmgr /dti (for phone activation).
• Remove the Validation Watermark: slmgr /rearm (reboot required).

• Activation Server Errors: Temporary server issues or connectivity problems can block activation — retry later or use phone activation.
• Key Rejection: Keys may be blocked if reported stolen or misused (e.g., OEM key used on new hardware).
• Hardware Changes: Significant hardware changes (motherboard) can invalidate the hardware signature, requiring reactivation.
• Corrupted Licensing Store: File corruption in Software Protection Service or Licensing Store can prevent activation; resolving often involves:

  Tamper Detection

  : It checks for "activation exploits"—hacks or cracks—that attempt to bypass the standard Windows activation process.

  If you are using the tool to try to "beat" the system with cracks or loaders, understand that you are losing more than you gain. The best path forward is to migrate away from Windows 7 entirely.

  Using these was risky. They triggered antivirus software (often because they used rootkit-like techniques) and could destabilize Windows. Worse, Microsoft could blacklist the fake certificates in future updates, causing the validation to fail months later.

  The validation process is an online check that compares your system’s activation files and 25-character product key against Microsoft's database of legitimate licenses.
