I have an activation code for my software but it no longer works. My repair disk does not solve the problem. I paid full price for the software, Microsoft is not interested in helping. The message I get is my software is not legitimate.

Is there any way to verify my activation code?

Windows 7 has been out of support for almost three years. The activation servers are gone as well. Your best bet would be to move to Windows 10
