How to buy a new Windows 7 key or Microsoft CD/DVD

After buying a few netbooks for my company, it was a shock that they came pre-installed with Ubuntu. Ubuntu is good for me that all the programs that we use to work on Windows, so I need Windows 7. However, after reviewing countless pages on Microsoft Web sites, I found unable to buy even 1 key of Microsoft as all redirects to Windows 8. No implicit offense but Windows 8 is absolutely silly--perhaps even worse than Windows Vista. After spending time and money to train people to use Windows 7, I find now that I have to re - train to use Windows 8. In fact, I don't even know how use Windows 8 myself. If Microsoft decides to rearrange Windows 8 to run Windows 7 (the Start button and easily organized programs), then by all means, I would be more inclined to buy Windows 8. However, this new interface is complete b * t!

Someone please be so kind to tell me how to get the keys directly from Microsoft (Volume license keys even will do) as long as it is directly from Microsoft that I had some bad experiences with retailers (i.e. retailers) in the past and refuse to go down the route of using one of them.

Am I stuck with Ubuntu or someone can help?

Thank you very much in advance for responses to my query.

Microsoft has been the only one who has sold the product keys.

Where can I still get Windows 7?

    There is no such thing as a "max usage limit" (other than to be in use on a single computer at a time) for a Windows XP product key.

    There is no limit to the number of times where you can reinstall and activate the same license of Windows XP on the same PC.  Is never a charge.  No more than a product key (as long as it is not an evaluation license) never expire.  If it's been more than 120 days you finally turned on this specific product key, you will probably be able to activate via the Internet without problem.  If it was less, you may need to do a five minute phone call.

    Here are the facts relating to activation:

  • If I change my hard dsik which would mean I have to buy a new windows OS / if not then how can I solve the problem?

    I would like to change my HDD without having to buy a new Windows operating system. And I'm not sure if it is possible or not.

    The motherboard is not defective, correct?  If you override to 'improve' the unit and the original motherboard is not defective, then, Yes, you will need to purchase a new license.  You've essentially created a new machine.

    In this case, you will need to purchase a new license.

    Since the motherboard contains the processor and is "the heart and soul" of the PC, then replacement of the motherboard (for other reasons than to default) a new PC is essentially created. The system integrator original manufactured not this new PC and cannot therefore be expected to support it.

    In this case, you can use the original license:

    If the motherboard is replaced because it is defective, you do not need to purchase a new license of PC operating system as long as the replacement motherboard is the same make and model or equivalent/replacement by the manufacturer, as defined by the manufacturer warranty of.

  • How to find my current windows product key

    I have genuine Windows 7 Home Premium installed in my laptop Toshiba. This came pre-installed.

    The product key on the sticker on the back side is not visible now. How can I get my Windows product key?

    I hope to see a response soon.

    Hello

    Key Finder programs, Belarc, MagicJellyBean, etc. do not find a product key on a preinstalled OEM machine licensed (Toshiba, Dell, etc.) that is usable.

    The key they find is the key that has been used on several machines with the production at the plant of Toshiba.

    _________________________________________

    In these Forums, it is often recommended to use a magnifying glass and a flashlight to see if you can read the numbers of the product key on the label.

    These are your relocation options:

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks and to reinstall the operating system.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    With a Toshiba, you press 0 (zero) to start to start the recovery process

    _________________________________________

    Or make your own recovery disks:

    Windows 7

    1. click on start

    2. Select all programs

    3. Select Recovery Media Creator

    4. Select the type of media to use under Disc Set (DVD single layer, double layer DVD, or USB key)

    5. click on create, and then follow the prompts to insert the discs when necessary

    Please note: when you create a partition recovery on a USB device, it must be a USB Flash drive that is formatted in FAT32. An external hard drive does not work.

    ________________________________________

    The methods above resettlement generally do not require allows you to provide a product key during Installation, the recovery process uses the Installation product key factory to activate automatically during the resettlement process.

    See you soon.

    The system opens the new pages in tabs... I was wondering how to change the settings so that when I click on a link, it will open in a new window

    You can tear off tab in a new window by slightly moving the tab in the Firefox window to move the tab to a new window. Alternatively, you can drag a tab in the tab bar of a window to another window tab bar.

Last week one of my friends borrowed my laptop for 3 days while I worked. When he came back to me, he said that he has accidentally changed the product key of my windows and it could not get it back. I tried to work on it since then. Finally, I decide that I need help after the future store (where I bought the laptop) fail to come with a solution for the future. I know there are a lot of guys here are really smart and pro on computer problems, so maybe you can help me with this problem. It's a laptop ASUS K75DE of model with windows 8 preinstalled inside. I just want to know if there is a way for me to get the original product key from windows, which is preinstalled in the laptop.
    I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys.

    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.

    I have my browser set to restore the previous session, when I open Firefox and new tabs to open the vacuum. With these settings, I used to be able to open new windows and carry the load of my home page, while keeping intact previously mentioned behaviour, but when I open a new window now, I get a blank page.

    Is it possible to restore the previous behavior, or are all the tabs that are now seen as the same now, if they are open within the framework of new or existing windows?

  • How to find the original windows product key?

    I think I need something that is not really possible, but I give it a go anyway. Some time ago, I bought a new ultrabook with preinstalled windows U840W 7. I got this sticker on the back of my laptop with product key but who are off to a long time ago. The problem I have now is that I've recently updated to windows 10 and shortly after my HARD drive has failed. I replaced my HARD drive and reinstalled windows but product key to my victory 10 showed before is not valid as an activation key. I contacted Microsoft to see what my options are and they advised me that if I can provide key to windows 7, I had at the beginning, they can solve this problem for me. Are there opportunities that I can get it somehow? Any help would be much appreciated.

    I think I'm after something impossible, but I give it a go anyway. Some time ago I bought a brand new u840w ultrabook.
    It came preinstalled with windows 7 and there was a sticker with the product key to this topic. Unfortunately this vignette came out a long time ago without notice me so I did take a picture of him. I've recently updated to windows 10. The problem I have is that my HARD drive is dead. I knew that it was about to happen, so I took a photo of product key windows 10 showed. Unfortunately once I replaced my HARD drive and did a clean install of windows 10 I can't use this product key to activate my windows. I contacted Microsoft and they advised me that if I can provide them with the product key, which was on this thumbnail when I bought my laptop, they can activate my copy. Are there opportunities that I can find the product key? Otherwise it would cost me $199 and I certainly don't want to pay for this... Any help would be much appreciated.

  • 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.

    Hello
     
    The key is in the BIOS of your machine, please use the following tool to get:
