Activation of the product and the product ID or activation keys

• I format my PC and have the product ID, but not the activation key

  Hello people,

  As the question says I have format my computer forgetting to pick up my activation key. I did, however, recover my product ID before formatting the device. The installed copy of Windows was previously purchased through the Express upgrade.
  I know that, as a general rule, it is impossible to get this key to return, but is it possible since I have the product ID and the same defined material? Please advice.

  Product ID is for customer support, cannot help regarding the activation of the software.

  Will send me you a confirmation email with my product key?

  Yes. An e-mail containing your product key will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Windows Live ID account or e-mail address you provided if you ignored the account configuration. Note: If you use an email tool or spam blocker spam filter, be sure that you can receive e-mail messages from microsoft.com.

  What happens if I lose my product key?

  If you lose your product key, you can return to www.windows7.com/getkey and sign in using the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the page. This will allow to recover your product key if you have established your account with your Windows Live ID. If you do not configure a Windows Live ID account initially there is no record of your online product key. Check your e-mail since it is the only trace of your product key.

  Hello

  I bought Lightroom from a shop in Switzerland. Setup refuses the activation key, saying that the parcel is a forgery and that I need to contact the customer service. It's Saturday and I would like to install the product by Monday! Is it possible to do? Thanks for your help, best looks.

  Thanks to you two, John and Kglad, for your responses. I have contacted Adobe and they had me download the package from their website. The problem was apparently with the package on the purchased version. Problem solved.

  Best regards.

• Activation key is invalid when you try to use the windows product key in the back of a computer in conjunction with a Windows 7 installation disc. What can I do?

  "Activation key is not valid" when you try to reinstall Windows after a crashed hard drive. I have a disc of Windows 7 Home Premium and I am using the product key from the back of a computer (it was originally an installation of Windows 7 Home Premium). Why do not match the keys, and what I have to report the earlier installation somehow is no longer active before attempting to reactivate?

• I have a computer that runs XP and used to run on Vista. The computer came with an activation key for Vista. What should I do if I want to return it to Vista?

  I bought a brand new computer, so I can't remember if it came with a Vista installation CD or if this content is available online. As far as I know, the activation key was initially registered under my name.

  Also, if I succeed at, go back to what it will do for installed programs. Should I install them again? What about programs that come with a limited number of licenses, as a McAfee antivirus?

  Hello

  If you reinstall vista, you must reinstall all THE programs

  Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  ____________________________________________________________

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  __________________________________________________________

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  You will need to buy a license to activate this copy of Windows 7 Professional. It doesn't have a product key, you will need to have that already.

  You can even buy an edition much cheaper if you like Home Premium, since it will be for domestic use.

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  Full version (retail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive, but less expensive full version

  OEM System Builder version:

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

  How to get the new activation key when some numbers are taken away and you have received?

  
  Have a laptop with windows 7 from Dell. Need to re install W7. And I have some numbers are taken as a result of its use.

  How can I get a new code activation or my complete activation code?

  Dell provided you with restore/recovery media and/or a way to restore the machine 'default' as a key sequence?  If so - you won't need the number--unless they just sent a DVD of Windows 7 nu - and they are usually not unless you ask.

  They have probably installed using their key, which means that even with a utility like Belarc Advisor or ProduKey - you will not get the product key that matches the one on the sticker.

  Some may have you take several different digital pictures of the sticker from different angles and see if you can decipher the missing characters like that (you'd be surprised to see how that works).

• Can I buy an activation key and use the Windows 7 Upgrade disk to upgrade to Windows 7?

  The upgrade to Windows XP?

  Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

  Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

  More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

  1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

  2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

  3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

  4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

  5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

  If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

• I changed my computer from XP to vista. How can I get the activation key when Laura by windows vista?

  activation key for windows vista

  How you installed Vista as an upgrade on XP or to perform a new installation? Did you use the installation of a media installation upgrading or complete dvd or did you by TechNet or MSDN subscription paying there?

  With or without a dvd, you must enter the product key that was included with the media or have bought and downloaded via the store Ms. The product key is usually on the plastic case, the dvd of Vista arrives or accompanies electronic download and is that you enter during the installation/update level or when you use the control panel > system > change the product key to see active Windows.

  You'll need a product key valid for the edition in question that you are now going to run.

  Your Dell computer is too old (bios of 2003) were shipped originally with Vista Home Premium.  It's the bios does not even recognize that Vista even existed when it was written (no SLIC table).  I venture a guess that the sticker of the product key on the box of your desktop for Windows XP Edition family (as normally shipped with this computer.)  Vista was not yet released for manufacturers of computers until the end of 2006.

  Now your choice.  Buy a license retail for Vista or Windows 7 (if you can find the drivers for your computer 2003) or get the original installation discs and reinstall Windows which shows on the license on the case sticker.

• Activation key valid only for the update

  I'll try to be brief... I have the battle with a nasty virus that, until I got rid of him, did a lot of registry changes.  Even though I got rid of the virus, affects after having required that I do a new install.  One of the changes the virus made to the registry has prevented the normal installation process see the C: drive.  It was visible in my computer, but when you went to manage disks, it wasn't there while the program had nowhere to live.

  I tried everything I could think of, but in the end, I had to boot from the CD to get the course of the installation.  When I entered my key, he said that it was not valid for an upgrade and installation not complete.  I went ahead anyway because it was the only option I had.  After all, the PC OEM supplied with XP and I paid for the upgrade, then, what is the difference.

  So... what should I do at this point?  My activation key is only valid for an upgrade, not a full install.
