• Change the product key for Windows 7 Code

  I bought a package of Windows 7 from a supplier without realizing it was a distribution of subscription "not for sale". It is now installed on my computer after a painful migration from a dying hard drive which had Windows Vista installed. The old drive is now corrupt and not repairable.

  When I tried to record the installation, I found that he was blocked. I have to make sure that it is for the reason above somehow. How to check this?

  It seems I have to buy another Package of Windows 7 but I don't want to do a fresh install since I went to great effort to set up the installation on a new SSD and have all of my applications transferred intact.

  Is it possible to just change the product key of the new package to apply to my existing install without having to reinstall everything?

  Just for the completion of this thread, I decided to pass my final action to get my computer system operating system up-to-date.

  Assuming it was a MSDN product licensed, it was repackaged in a retail store packaging and sold as such.

  Needing my computer back to the status of full support, I bought a 64-bit edition (non - OEM) of Windows 10 full retail on USB media. Is it installed just fine on top of the MSDN license of Windows 7 and allowed me to install without erasing the contents of the disc. My applications and drivers are intact. Windows 10 also all updates installed correctly.

  This allowed me to remedy the situation without having to re - install everything that would have been very time consuming.

  Thank you for your help.

• change the product key on windows 7 ultimate 64-bit full

  Let's make has a history very very short.  Earlier this year, I bought 4 copies of Windows 7 Ultimate full 64-bit for internet and loaded mrechant on 4 machines (3 upgrades from Vista and 1 new installation) without a hitch.  The software was perfect for a few months until recently Microsoft me notified that the software was not "authentic".  Apparently this software was not allowed to sell in the USA.

  In any case, if I buy a new genuine Windows 7 Ultimate Full 64-bit version, can't I just change the product key to solve this problem?  I know I need to ultimately get 4 copies.

  Thanks in advance!

  How to update your product key

• Change the product key to use COA OEM during the product upgrade

  I found the kkid106 question "can I use a product key Windows 7 OEM to a retail facility.

  But as it is not my particular case, I want to be sure and make the issue.

  The question is on a clean install of Windows 7 Home Retail using Windows 7 OEM Home.  My case is not a clean install.

  I have the following two scenarios:

  Scenario 1. A computer with Windows XP Pro OEM who got the original damage.  I have an Image backup which I bring to a Destination with Windows 8 OEM computer.  I get a retail upgrade of Windows 8.  I restore the Image to the destination computer, and then upgrade old XP Pro OEM with retail upgrade to Windows 8.  Technically I find myself with a computer without a license since the upgrade come from an OEM from another computer.  Now, I change the product key by using the Destination COA OEM computer to make a licensed computer.

  This scenario is correct.  Can I validate the license online or by phone?

  Scenario 2. A computer with Windows XP Pro OEM who got the original damage.  I have an Image backup which I bring to a Destination with Windows 8 OEM computer.  I have an Upgrade download Windows 8 without product key.  I restore the Image to the destination computer, and then upgrade old XP Pro OEM upgrade download to Windows 8.  I find myself with a computer without a license, because the upgrade is unlicensed and comes from an OEM from another computer.  Now, I change the product key by using the Destination COA OEM computer to make a licensed computer.

  This scenario is correct.  Can I validate the license online or by phone?

• Change the product key

  Hello
  The situation is like this: I have 10 Acer laptops with linux installed on them and 10 Windows XP home sp3.
  I have instaled on laptop and after that I created an image of the hard drive and installed on a computer to second and third.
  The problem is that all 3 computers have the same product keys. I want to change the product key.
  Before I created the image I activated the license and I tried to change, with a few small programs, the product, but keys with no luck. Is there a way to do this without having to reinstall the operating system?
  Thanks in advance.

  Given that you have a valid Windows XP key license and product for each computer, try this:

  1. run the registry editor and change at least one digit of the value of this key:

  HLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows NT / CurrentVersion / WPAEvents / OOBETimer

  2. click on start > run and enter this command:

  %systemroot%\System32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a

  3. Select Yes, I want a phone rep > next > change product key.

  4 type the new product key, and then click Update.

  5. turn on.

  WARNING: Incorrectly editing the registry can damage your system and prevent Windows to start. Before you do, back up your important data, make a restore point and make sure that you know how to repair a damaged system.

  2. The Start Menu displays "CMD.exe."
  3. Right click on the file CMD.exe and select run as administrator.
  4. In the CMD window, type: slmgr.vbs - ipk
  5. To activate windows after changing the key, type: slmgr.vbs - ato

• Change the product key with a Windows 8.1 apdate

  I WANT 4 - 1130us I've had for about 1 year and it came with pre-installed Windows 8.  I've since updated to Windows 8. 1.

  On the screen: System control panel - system and safety - is a link to "Get more features with a new edition of Windows".  When I select it it then requires a product key.  Belerac using the product key appears as being for Windows 8.1 (x 64).  I enter the product key, but it is rejected as invalid.

  I'm doing something wrong?

  The product key there with the update in 8.1?  If so, how di I find my key windows 8.1?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The product key is will not change when you updated to Windows 8.1, but it is used to activate the system operation cannot be used to buy additional upgrades such as Windows Media Center etc - this requires you to first purchase the upgrade key appropriate for the additional component, you need.

  See the Microsoft link below for more details.

• Change the product key: MCE 2002 installed. MCE 2004 available button

  Hello.  I had brought my PC repair; they have reinstalled MCE 2002 and a key that "they" (disc vs the OS that I gave them...).  I had initially MCE 2004 installed on the system.  I have the disc of BONE and the MCE 2004 product key.

  (a) should even be concerned about the upgrade to MCE 2004 on 2002/all advantage (as I REALLY don't want to reinstall the entire OS)?
  (b) given that the operating system is the MCE 2002 currently; I assume I shouldn't update the product key unless I am change the operating system to MCE 2004 (see link): http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/selfhelp/PKUInstructions.aspx
  (c) for the operating system reinstalled repair shop, they need not make a RAID 0 configuration (which existed previously).  When the PC starts up, if I change this in the configuration of the PC, do I need to reinstall the operating system (sorry to put this question here...).
  Thank you :-)
  James

  The product key update tool does not work beyond the limits of liberation - and does not in all cases with MCE.

  As says Sandeep - your best course of action is complain volubly shop and force them to do the job you requested in the first place, or give you a refund.

  I would say no, but you never know unless you ask. If you do not, contact the Head Office of your area, but don't do it with any hope of a positive outcome.

• need to find the product key for Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium

  Last year, I bought a HP Mini 110 series laptop running Windows 7 Starter. I'll tell you the real story, months later, the operating system does not load. Before that, I bought the Windows Anytime Upgrade Windows 7 Home Premium. Days later, the DVD arrived from Microsoft. After the operating system does not load, I called HP support and said the problem of my laptop. Then they sent me a USB which has Windows 7 Starter (which is authentic and no time - watch) and a subscription for 1 year for Norton Antivirus 2011 (now expired). But when I bought the Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium, on the site Web was my product key, I did a .txt and copied the product key.

• Impossible to change the product key for Windows 7 Home Premium after having received notification that Windows is not geniune

  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?
