What are the implications if this copy of Windows is not genuine?

If we install a non-genuine Windows system, a prompt will often pop up saying that the copy of Windows is not genuine. So what is the impact of not being genuine? In fact, in addition to the visual effect, the function will also be affected.

What are the consequences if this copy of Windows is not genuine:

1. First of all, within 30 days after installation, there will only be a prompt, and the functions will not be affected.

2. The prompt will be once a day for the first 4-27 days, every 4 hours for the 28-29 days, and every hour on the 30th day.

3. If it exceeds 30 days, the system will restrict your functions.

4. Built-in games (minesweeper), etc. will not be playable.

5. Some advanced functions will not be available, including BitLocker, ReadyBoost, etc.

6. In addition, the background will turn black, the prompt will continue to display, and you must log in again every hour.
