How do I find my Windows product key?

I have a laptop HP with Windows 8 is installed.  It has a recovery partition, so he came with the OS discs.  I have recently upgraded to Windows 8. 1.

  • HP Envy laptop: How do I find my windows product key?

    My laptop is equipped with Win10 Home preinstalled. OS is corrupted and recovery partition does not work. When I asked for a recovery media, HP sent only to win 8.1 and asked me to upgrade to Win10 it's free now. I was able to recover.

    Golden days are gone. July 29, 2016 is finally free upgrade of Windows 10. If I face the same problem then, I cannot install Windows 8.1 and cannot be upgraded. Which means, I bought 10 Windows, but can use only 8.1.

    If I know the product key for my windows, I guess I can even after the free upgrade period that my product key is for Windows 10 itself.

    So, I would like to know how to find.

  • Find my Windows product key 8 and Dell service in general.

    Hi folx, I'm new to the forum.

    I have a desktop Dell dimension 3100 on win XP and in January, I bought an inspiron 660 desktop computer, but the service I am experience leaves many to be honest. They have no knowledge of my purchase, although I bought them online! My service tags are not recognized and I am now almost two months since I bought it; I can't access the support page using my service tag. Absolutely hopeless. What is the point to give e-mail addresses and tags of service etc., if they have no intention on a support, it seems to me that the only thing working at Dell, is the phone line, they don't seem to know how to upgrade its support page. I have sent countless emails and they answer simply say that they have failed to make any progress. Not the Dell company I know. I said to organize the uprising of the inspiron since they cannot support. Where can I find my windows product key? I can't find it anywhere on my computer, is there any way I can find it in the software? I tried to call Dell and they don't have a clue! I wish I had bought another PC now, anywhere but Dell. I bought it because I could not their fault on their support for my old dimension and (stupidly) thought things were the same. More wrong! I have since my old dimension work, so I need the manufacturer cannot support me with a new PC. I want a refund. rant on!

    Download Belarc Advisor, a free PC audit program with full support for Windows 8, which also functions as a key research tool. Unfortunately, locate manually Windows 8 product key in the registry is not possible, so you will need to use a program like this.

    Note: Any search for product keys which announces support for Windows 8 will work for each edition: Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro, and most likely the two editions of Windows 8.1.

    Installation of the Belarc Advisor, no matter what the instructions during the installation of the suite.

    Run Belarc Advisor (the initial analysis may take some time) and note the product key Windows 8 posted in the section software licenses.

    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.

    Your only option is to restore the computer to its original factory condition.

    New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.
