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.

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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!

    Here's how to find the product key:

    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.

    www.Belarc.com/.../advisorinstaller.exe

    Free Key Finder programs to offer more tools like Belarc Advisor but please first try since I have upheld finds it correctly the product keys for Windows 8.

    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.

    The product key of Windows 8 is a series of 25 letters and numbers, and should look like this: xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx.

    Note the Windows 8 key exactly as indicated for use when reinstalling Windows 8.

    Important: Make sure that each letter and number is written exactly as shown. If even a figure is not properly transcribed, the key will not work to reinstall Windows 8.
