1. Download the WindowsLicense.rar or wpa_registry.rar archive files which contains the same registry’s registration file with .reg extension.
2. 依次删除Windows/system32以及Windows/system32/dllcache路径下名为WGATray.EXE的文件
   

The registration file actually put in the following registry keys and branches to the Windows registry:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/WPAEvents]
“OOBETimer”=hex:ff,d5,71,d6,8b,6a,8d,6f,d5,33,93,fd
“LastWPAEventLogged”=hex:d5,07,05,00,06,00,07,00,0f,00,38,00,24,00,fd,02

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,31,34,35,30,34,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,ce,0e,/

0a,0a,ce,0d,b8,27,4a,46,53,f3,17

If you can’t download the files above, simply open any text editor, copy and paste the above text (make sure the format is text only and not a rich text, as the quotation marks (which is distorted by WordPress) matter to make the registration file you created yourself works), and the save the file with .reg extension. The double click on the .reg you created to apply the registry trick.
