Get the new activation key

I bought a copy of windows 7 ultimate Windows.com/genuine after having received a notice that my copy of windows was not authentic. I bought the new activation key for almost $300 and they also sent me an installation CD where I never had to perform a reinstallation. Well my hard drive crashed and I had to purchase and install a new one, which meant the reinstallation of windows. However, I found that in some way I lost my activation code and the cover of the CD that Microsoft sent me contained not one. I called Microsoft support several times to get the reprinted to me activation key. I spent many hours being transferred from one Department to the other until they began to transfer me to the same departments several times. I have my order number, address that was sent to the, date of purchase and all. They can see my order but they can't access information on this topic for a reason, and they issue me a new code. At this point, I'm really upset because I spent a lot of money on this software only to be told that I can't use it. In addition to all this Microsoft has absolutely no way to file a complaint. I am at a loss to know what to do. The only option that Microsoft gives me is to buy a new code, but there is no way I'm paying twice for the same product, I just assumed never to use a Microsoft product to new to be dressed like that. If someone has experienced something similar, I would be grateful for help on how to get this sorted out. Thank you!

    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).

  • How to get the lost activation key

    my computer is installed with windows original 8. When I tried to upgrade to windows pro it asks activation key. but I have the original product key, but I lost my activation key. How can I get my activation code.

    Go to the order summary page, you can find your product key:

    If Windows 8 came preininstalled on your computer:

    With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

    If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  • How can I get a new activation key?

    I have recently sysprep has my HDD to move to a newer PC, the installation went well but Win 7 must reactivate. However, I can't use the activation code provided with the original installation disc, so I phoned using the number...

    First of all, after I entered all the numbers I wonder whether this copy of windows is installed on a PC (#1) ou number (#2). It's a family pack for 3 licenses (and I installed it on 3 machines) so I enter #1. Then I get a message telling me that this copy of Windows 7 may not be installed on more than one machine (which is not true) and the line goes dead. So I try again.

    On my second attempt, after you have entered all the numbers and say it is installed that on a single machine (Yes, I had to lie to get past the automated system) I come finally to speak to an advisor. The counselor told me there was a problem with the system and she couldn't do anything, I wondered more but apparently she can't understand me (Yes, I called the number in the United Kingdom) because of my English accent.

    Where should I go from here?

    Still there have been reactivated since its removal from the former regime and the Windows 7 Home Premium license is a license to retail sales.

  • How to convert the old sync key (12 characters, no dashes) to the new sync key (31 characters, 5 dashes)?

    My sync key was of 12 characters, no dashes (xxxxxxxxxxxx). After uninstalling and reinstalling FF 3.6.13, Sync 1.6.1 refuses my sync key to 12 characters.
    I discovered, that the keys of synchronization for all users have been activated to 31 characters including 5 dashes (x-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx). How can I get the new key for synchronization?
    I have no PC connected to Firefox Sync more but Firefox Home and 360 browser on my iPhone successfully sync. Unfortunately on the iPhone I can't display the sync currently used key. Is there a way to convert the old key to sync to the new?
    I need the bookmarks saved in my sync account.
    Thanks for your help!

    I had the same exact symptoms as you did. Here is my solution:
    I installed an older version of firefox sync (1.4.something, I think) and then added my account using my old short firefox sync key. When you try to synchronize, the out of date addon says to do synchronization, it must be updated. After update, I always signed, but now had the additional device to see my new long firefox sync key that was compatible with FF 4 b, etc. Everything works fine now and my computer is properly synchronize.

    In the case of a computer from a major manufacturer contact them via their web site.  Many have recovery media low cost for just the situation you encounter.  Also they can cause (however unlikely) a new product key to replace the one that has rubbed off.  If all else fails see also: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;326246

    By following the instructions on the internet, I got my product key of the section "Computer" from the Start button. It is only 20 digits and, therefore, will not work.  Why should I pay to get a new product key when on my computer is incorrect?

    Sometimes, it might be the battery, or below.  Sometimes they include it in a separate box with the recovery CD disks.  It's the PC manufacturer to decide how they want to, so you will need to call and ask them in particular.  Sorry, we can't be more helpful here.

  • install the new product key for windows 7

    answers provided did not work. Someone a bad version of Windows 7 on my computer. I don't have my original activation code any longer. I have the working activation keys that are valid. How can I activate a new key for windows 7?

    These keys work product can be Volume license Windows 7 licenses. Their use outside your organization could be in non-compliance. Please contact your IT department or helpdesk if you have home use rights to use.

    Otherwise, you might have to purchase a new license of Windows 7.

    You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

    There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

    Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key.  1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key.  Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

    The software comes with the key when you buy. You have not a
    choice.

    > I have windows 7 Home premium, but it can only be used on a single computer.

    Right, the rule is quite clear. It is a copy (or a license) for
    each computer.

    There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
    effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

    Then, unless you can find a lower price somewhere or you wish to fly,
    you're out of luck.
