How to recover my product key lost for Windows 8?

last month, I bought computer dell laptop with windows 8. But unfortunately I lost my product key of the kit. How can I get this key?

Hi JacobJiby,

Thanks for choosing Microsoft Community!

I understand that you have lost the product key that you received from Dell. We will give our best to help you.

Windows 8 Dell systems are pre-activated from the factory. Once the PC is turned on, it remains active unless there is significant physical changes such as the motherboard or hard drive replacement. If you reinstall Windows on the computer, there not need product key as it is injected on the motherboard of the factory.

If you want more help, I suggest you to contact Dell technical support.

Hope it will be useful. If you still have questions, please reply and we will be happy to help you.

    How to recover my product key of windows 8, I installed the windows 10 techniques view without taking backup I need to go back to my windows 8 pls someone help

    Hi Carmen,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    I understand that you had not taken any prior backup upgrade to Windows 10 Technical Preview and need product key to retrieve Windows 8.

    So, first of all, I suggest you to check the product key in email messages when you purchased the license to the product for Windows 8. Once you get the product key, you can create a Windows 8 ISO and reinstall using this product key. See the following article:

    To create installation media Windows 8.1

    However, if you had bought the system pre-installed with Windows 8. Then, you may need to contact the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) system for Windows 8 discs to restore the older operating system.

    Hope this information is useful. Let us know the results for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  • How to recover the product key after formatting?

    Original title: ask

    Hi, I formatted my hard drive of the PC... and I lost my product key. you will need to recover my product key. What can I do? Help me please!

    Hello

    If pre-installed, look for the PK on the COA sticker.

    The COA sticker is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.

    With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.

    If you can't find that, order the recovery media from the manufacturer of the computer that must install without your input of a PK.

    Check with the manufacturer...

    See you soon.

    Does anyone know if I can get a replacement and that I have to pay.

    Hello

    You could not lost the product key because the recovery disk is already activated.
    So you n t need any key to install the OS by using the recovery disk.

    But if you have lost the recovery disc then you can order it from here:
    https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

    But it s not free, you will have to pay a small fee.
