Windows Media Player 11 for XP has been released and Microsoft decided to add a WGA check to the installation routine. Once you double-click the executable that you downloaded the tool asks for a WGA check and will not continue the installation until it was checked whether Microsoft thinks your Windows installation is legit or not. We heard about users that had problems with those WGA checks and could not install software that performed checks although they had a legit system.

how can i bypass WGA check for IE-7???
I have written an article that will be published tomorrow morning that explains how to easily bypass wga checks for IE 7 and Media Player 11
you can download IE 7 from another site after that it will not need a validation i have it i downloaded it from the school! but i have downloaded IE8 but it cannot be installed
Posted this on a a different thread before…
To get past the initial check (Idea originally from posters above, they just didn’t explain a way to get at the right exe.):
Download wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe (link listed above)
Using WinRar, rightclick on the wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe and extract to a folder.
In that folder you can find the wmp11.exe to install. This seems to bypass WGA check.
Disclaimer: If you like/use windows you should buy it, but if you don’t like the intrusive WGA, this seems to be the way to get around it.
its good

Hey guys, looking for that reg file? no need to. I found an even easier way on www.mydigitallife.info, worked a treat for me:
If you’ve already installed WM11 go to STEP 2.
STEP 1: Go to the old windows media player (WM10), go to Tools–>Options and click on ‘Check for updates once a day.’ Press Apply and then OK.
After a short time a window appears asking if you want to upgrade to a newer version, click OK. System will download WM11 and and install the Media Player 11. After installation restart your PC.
STEP 2: Click on Start –> Search. Click ‘All files and folders’ then search for LegitLibM.dll. (it’s located in C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player folder.)
After LegitLibM.dll is found, right click and rename it to legitlib.dll.
STEP 3: Run WM11, click on validate, it may say ‘unable to validate’ (but that’s a fake message and WMP11 still works, so just click on OK). Then the program will go on to settings or configuration and after you do that the WMP 11 is ready to be used.
what can i do to avoid wga checking?please explain
there is no file named as LegitLibM.dll?what can ido
