Dear All,

In order to remove the windows notification and wgatray.exe follow steps

Step : go to local drive and search windows then go to system32 folder , look for wgatray.exe and legitcheckcontrol.dll.

step 2 : in case wgatray.exe is saying access denied.restart the computer and start in safe mode by pressing f8 during the reboot and logon as administrator to the computer.

step 3 : in the safe mode delete the same exe that is wgatray.exe and empty the recycle bin.

step 4 : go to run , write regedit in order to enter registry

go to hkey_local_machine then software then microsoft then windowsNT then winlogon then rightclick on Notify and select delete and answer yes.

Step 5 : restart PC in in normal mode . go to control panel and disable automatic updates inorder to avoid this problem in future.

That is It , you r free now from this curse.


Pray for me.

Hi!

i found a new way to delete this mofo :P

instead of restarten in safe mode. press shift+delete on the wgatray.exe (located in system32 folder) BUT before u press enter to delete it, go to your taskmanager and end the process wgatray.exe.

So when u end the process, inmediatly press ok to the deleting file.!

You can just rename the wgatray.exe file to wgatray.exe.old then it'll let you kill the wgatray.exe process in task manager and delete the file with no problem.
