Microsoft Verification Authentication refers to the Microsoft tool that verifies that your copy of Windows is genuine. It is known as the Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) tool. Once you know your copy of Windows is genuine, you can remove this tool. Sometimes it does become a little too intrusive, and keeps popping up. Removing it will not affect your system and if you want to add it again, turn on Automatic Updates and it will be among the first files downloaded. Step 1 Reboot Windows in Safe Mode. You do this by restarting the computer and tapping the F8 key as it boots. Step 2 Accept the Safe Mode version of Windows. Step 3 Open the Run box by clicking on the Start button and selecting Run, or by holding down the Windows key (to the left of the Alt key on the left side of the keyboard. Step 4 Type “regedit” (without the quotes) to open the Registry Editor. This is a very delicate editor; you can really cause problems here if you are not careful. Step 5 Back up your registry.
