• Satellite U940 - 12 c: Windows 8 license code?

  Hello.

  I own a Toshiba Satellite U940 - 12 c. Due to a sequence of horrific circumstances, I'm done with a laptop without Windows 8 and without access to the recovery partition. If there is no idea of how to make to access these data recovery, please tell me.

  But the question is: How can I get my copy of Notepad of Windows 8 license code? Is it possible?

  Thank you and goodbye.

  If you can access the recovery partition on ordinary road, there is no other way to do and saved on your laptop recovery image is useless. It is a pity that you n t have created a recovery media that could be used for a clean install of Win8.

  Maybe you don't believe this, but the license key is also useless and cannot be used for a clean install of Windows. This code is part of the original pre-installed version you got with your laptop.

  Best option for you is to order the original recovery disk and use it for Win8 installed. You can order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Windows 98 license number

  can anyone answer me on this issue of license? My application needed to run on windows 98, but because Windows 98 is selling to the market, can we just install to use it without buying any license? or can buy us Windows 7 license, then install Windows 7 and Windows 98 together? Or how to fix this?

  Hello Ming21

  You cannot install Windows 98 without a product key and the key for Windows 7 will not work under Windows 98. However, you can use the compatibility mode to try to get apps for Windows 98 work under Windows 7. View the links below to understand how.

• Windows XP license for home computers

  If an individual has Windows XP on a computer at home, and they get a second computer for use in their home, can I use the Windows XP license from their original computer to install XP on their second computer? Or should they buy a second copy of Windows XP for use at home?

  If you have a version of Windows XP OEM (the one that came with a new computer), you can only install it on this computer.

  If you have a retail version of Windows XP, you can remove a computer and install it on another computer.

  If you want Windows XP on both computers, you must purchase a second copy.

• UEFI and Windows 10 licenses

  I have read that with UEFI system, Windows 10 licenses are hardcoded in the UEFI firmware. This means that if I format my drive, wipe my recovery partitions and install 10 Windows from a USB key (assuming that it is not a recovery of my own drive machine, but an image downloaded from Windows written on it) it will be automatically validated and I'll have a legal installation?

  Hello

  If this is the same operating system supplied with the computer, it should work. It will go through a normal installation of Windows without having to request the license key.

• Reuse of Windows 7 license after free update of Windows 10?

  Hi all!

  I was wondering if I'll be free to reuse my Windows 7 license key after the free upgrade to Windows 10 on July 29.

  I've already reserved my copy, and yes I'm very happy. The only problem I see is because it is a version of Windows 7 OEM for Sony VAIO, so maybe it will not work if I use it in a new computer? If I can in any?

  I hope that you guys understand my question and good day!

  Hello

  Your Windows 7 OEM license has become an integral part of the upgrade to Windows 10 process.

  If you cannot reinstall Windows 7 as a dual boot either in your Sony or move it to another computer.

  OEM licenses that you cannot transfer anyway.

  OEM licenses are tied to the first machine, on which they are installed and die when the machine that dies.

  See you soon.

• Qty 9 Vista > Windows 7 licenses

  How can I get Qty 9 Windows 7 licenses for Vista OEM computers & detail 9?

  I have 9 computers running genuine Vista Home Premium (32-bit 5, 4 64 bit) licensed. I need to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. (A clean install is ok if a place in the upgrade is not an option). I did Digital River 32 - bit and 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium discs. So I think that I now only need Windows 7 Home Premium licenses?

  Most of the computers are OEM (HP, Dell) but 3 computers had installed retail Windows (non OEM) and 1 was an upgrade on the spot of XP to Vista. Will be the licenses that I find work any installation of Vista was already installed? I am not concerned by the assumption, only the licenses that I get to be recognized and authenticated during the installation.

  What would be the best (cheapest) way for me to get the licenses I need? I prefer not to buy physical media of retail packages that sell usually for $90 - $99 which is almost $1,000 and they are all old computers. I found a place online selling 'Download only' licenses for $55, which seems to be a reasonable investment to keep these computers going a few more years. I've never bought only before licenses. Is a reasonable price of $55, or is there a way easier, cheaper or better? How much would be volume licensing become an option?

  Finally, if I do a fresh install can I take the 32-bit Vista systems and make all 7 computer 64-bit Windows systems by installing simply with the 64-bit key? This way I could end up with 9 computers all running Windows 7 64 bit that would make things a little easier.

  Last question: a license of Windows 7 can be used to install Windows 7 on a computer that was originally XP? Currently, the computer in question has no OS installed but has a valid XP COA sticker and installation disk original XP (Dell OEM XP SP2 "Reinstall operating system drive").

  Thank you for answering my questions of license.

  You know what this site is selling? MSDN/TechNet licenses:

  On MSDN or TechNet product key

  They are genuine Microsoft product keys, they are in fact retail licenses, but it is expected for a product specific Microsoft Software Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet channel for professionals who pay a subscription. The main objective is for evaluation purposes. The big thing to their subject, unlike Microsoft, MSDN or TechNet keys evaluation software expires. Because the agreement by virtue of which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Although its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only for use and no one else. Unfortunately, no matter the conditions of license, people still abuse of the program, two key product gift or sell on auction sites. Microsoft it issues licences in good faith that customer will not do it, but I guess human nature win on.

  In your case, what can happen, you buy a MSDN license key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike packed full of retail licenses which carry 1 activation. The person who sells you probably eventually sold to 10 other people. Somewhere along the way, one of these people could have installed on a second system activated, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft has detected that he was abused and blocked the key for later use.

• Should I install Vista Ultimate on all computers laptops before moving on to a 3 Windows 7 license three?

  I'm considering the purchase of three laptops for home use and the case I've seen is for three laptops without operating system. I prefer Windows 7 64 - bit Windows 8 and, of course, need a license of user-3. I don't mind if it's Home Basic, Home Premium, professional or ultimate edition, but an 'Upgrade' will work and if not, what would? I have a spare disk Vista Ultimate, which I have not used more than once when I tried the upgrade to XP and didn't like it, so I went back to XP (present under Windows 7 Ultimate for my main PC) Vista has been in the area since then. I hope I did not install Vista Ultimate on all computers laptops before moving on to 3 Windows 7 license, three but I have a feeling vague feeling that I have to do exactly this. You confirm please?

  Original title: clean install on the new laptop

  Just keep in mind that the OEM versions are equipped with the installation media DVD 32-bit or 64-bit (not both as a retail version) and a product key.

  Also the OEM versions are related to the first card of mother/computer it is installed on and cannot be moved to another PC.

  The cost of an OEM version is much cheaper than commercial versions, especially since Microsoft stopped selling Windows 7.

  Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dsoftware&field-keywords=Windows+7

  As laptops have no OS installed, you need a way to test the system before you try to install an OEM version. I've provided two links to download Windows 7 Home premium (not), but you can install (install without a key) and it allows to test each laptop computer before installing an OEM version.

• Downgraded Windows 7 license key

  3 years ago, I got a PC from mesh (which are now passed in the administration.)  About six months ago, I upgraded to Windows 8, then 8.1 (which gave me a new product key.)  It would be good to use this license key on another copy of Windows 7, now that I do not use it?
