How can I find the product key for Windows 7 Home Premium (preinstalled) as sticker has worn through.
Someone knows if the product key is stored in any file on windows. Or does anyone know if Microsoft will have kept no record of the product key and can send information.
The short answer is no.
Even if a product key is stored in Windows and can be retrieved by various utilities third keyfinder, when Windows was preinstalled, this key is a special key used by the manufacturer of the computer to automatically activate Windows when, for example, you use the manufacturer method to restore the computer to its factory condition.
This key can be used if you want to reinstall using a Windows CD/DVD installation that you have purchased. To do this, you use the key on the COA label on your machine.
If you need this key, your most likely solution is to use a bright light and a magnifying glass. If it is completely unreadable, it is possible - though unlikely - that the manufacturer of the computer (non-Microsoft) can be useful.
No key will be useful if you want to install Windows on another computer. OEM (preinstalled) Microsoft software product keys are valid only for the computer on which the software was first installed.

Cannot find the product key for Windows 7 Home Premium
I don't have the product key of Windows 7 Home Premium? Where can I find it?
Original title: Charles 111
Hello
Welcome to the Microsoft community.
I would like to ask you:
- Did you buy Windows 7, or was it pre-installed on your PC?
If you bought a copy of Windows 7, you must have the drive and the product key is on the cover of the disc or the disc itself.
If Windows was preinstalled on your PC, there could be a sticker anywhere on the system with a product key to this topic.
Note: Not all PC makers provide the key on a sticker on the machine body. You may need to contact them for the same thing.

I have no idea how the product key has been changed to my OS to an OEM_SLP as I have the genuine key supplied with the system on the COA label.
I bought this system through Best Buy and today I received a notice that it uses a non-genuine version of Windows 7 Home Premium, but when I noticed the wrong product key, I have been unable to return to the good pair through my computer properties in the Activation of Windows.
How can I update the product key without having to uninstall/reinstall?

How can I find the product key for a specific OEM drive?
Product key for reinstallation question
I want to reinstall Windows XP on my Dell computer. I have the oem disc, but it is mixed with the other two provided with two other computers Dell oem disks that were purchased at the same time. The sticker on my computer displays a product key. When I do a search for product key on the computer using a program key finder, sometimes with a different product key. Which should I use and is at - there a way to find the product key on the disc? Thanks for any help.PS. the unattend.txt to disk file is NOT the correct product key.
If the drive of a Dell computer with the same edition of the OS, then you can use the disc - I think that each of them will have the same key as the one that is currently installed (and that on your sticker)
Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:
(A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with Bios OEM flag only on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows key leans on the motherboard and he sees the flag proper Bios OEM (for the manufacturer and the version of Windows) and activates.
(B) SLP COA: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side, bottom or (for some laptops) in the compartment of the battery from your computer. It's a valid product key, but it should be used only in certain situations (for example, when the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone.

Where can I find the product key for Windows 7?
Hi - I recently bought a laptop from Dixons. Where can I find the product to start key to use microsoft 7? I can't find it anywhere.
Help, please!Hello
I think that 90% of Toshiba laptops, you can find on the market come with preinstalled operating system. When you start it for the first time do NOT activate pre-installed OS. At the bottom of the laptop, you can find Windows sticker with valid license key.
Maybe you bought for laptop computer without an operating system preinstalled. In this case, you need to install own OS and use the own license key.
The question is: which model of laptop you have exactly and has your laptop comes with preinstalled operating system?
For the correct answer, please provide more relevant information.

How can I find the product key for microsoft office which is preloaded on my HP TouchSmart PC?
Trying to replace Office 2003 with Office 2010, which came preloaded on my HP TouchSmart PC, but he keeps invites me for a product key...
When you request support, please provide the number of name and/or product of comprehensive model of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq made thousands of computer models which are all different. Without this information, it can be difficult, even impossible to help you solve your problem.
As a general rule, the Microsoft Office product comes with most HP computers is a trial version or reduced functionality. Unless you paid extra for a version full of Office, it is unlikely that you have or that you will find a valid product key for Office.

Original title: single language of windows 8
I had 8 single language on dell inspiron 15-3521 pre-installed windows. I did repartitioning disks and windows recovery options 8 as 'reset your pc' and "Refresh your pc" has stopped working, saying that the not found recovery partition, but it was intact. I have no recovery disk.
Can I get a configuration of single language somewhere? How can I find the license key for my installation.Hi Mohammed'metwally,.
Please answer this question to get more clarity on this issue.
The application or program that you use the partition of the drive?
This problem may occur if the partition table is damaged or altered. As a result, the recovery partition does not work. I'm sorry to know that you are facing this problem.
You will not get the unique language anywhere to download setting. You have an OEM computer that comes with the product key integrated into the BIOS. The product key of Windows 8 on new machines is now integrated in the machine. It uses the Secure Boot technology. When you perform a new installation of Windows 8, the installation program ask a product key and will be automatically get it from your system and proceed with the installation.
As Windows 8 came pre-installed, you must contact the manufacturer of the computer with this problem for more help.

Hello
If you are unable to retrieve the product key provided with the system then Windows communicate with the system
Maker.Look at the lower/rear part computer and tape or disks that came with the unit.
If the system is still running, you can use these to access your product key. These are not cracks, they
only retrieve your existing key.One of them allows to recover your machine if possible.
