RemoveWGA will enable you to easily remove the Microsoft "Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications" tool, which is calling home and connects to MS servers every time you start your system.Once the WGA Notification tool has checked your OS and has confirmed you had a legit copy, there is no decent point or reason to check it again and again every boot.
Moreover, connecting to Microsoft brings security issue for corporate networks, and privacy issues for everyone. It is also unclear which information are transmitted (Microsoft published an official answer, but an individual study brought some questions).
All of that, along the fact that Microsoft used deceptive ways to make you install this tool (it was told you it was an urgent security update, whereas it is a new installation giving you no extra security) makes me calling this tool a spyware.
Also, Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications is different than Windows Genuine Advantage Validation. RemoveWGA only removes the notification part, phoning home, and does not touch the Validation part.
RemoveWGA is a little tool that claims it can remove the intentionally-deployed Windows Genuine Advanced Notification, which means it could make things a little bit quieter for your computer. that the update which is being flagged as 'Important' could pose a security risk as it opens a connection to Microsoft's servers every time the files are loaded.
The surprising thing is that it works, although there is major thing to be clarified here: RemoveWGA does not disable the validation procedure of Windows, but only the notifications and the adjoining connections to Microsoft's servers.
There is no interface to the application; everything comes down to a simple dialog that informs you whether the patch has been applied successfully or not.
The whole process is simple, so our check practically came down to downloading and walking the executable file. Afterwards, a computer reboot is necessarily, while a list of the files to be deleted will be introduced to the user after the boot.
In the coursework of our tests, everything worked fine, but they received reports from lots of users who encountered all kinds of issues when applying the patch. It ought to however work fine on a Windows XP machine, with the latest updates applied.
The thing they liked the most was probably the idea behind the tool: to resolve an issue that bothers Windows users although they have paid for the operating process.
