ID of product required for games for Windows Live. Need some answers, please.
Well, it's more a question of both parties.
1. How can I recover my product ID for a game, I bought and installed on Windows Live, if I lost the manual with the ID?
2. If this is not possible, then why is it an obligation to enter the product ID to be able to save the game? If the answer is something like "privacy... mackmackmackmack. ", then of course, I get it - BUT... who are we, people who legitimately buy the game? you need to install some 3rd party games on windows live and demand the product ID... do you think that you should then be responsible for the maintenance of this record? in the case of a person suffering from ADHD like me loses their stupid & * ^ % Manual of the game $? Thanks in advance for not having answered with a legal presentation text preset on software piracy =) schmellyX To answer the question on the entry of the product key, which is to prevent piracy of software for most (let's call security if you wish). To be honest, it is not for lack of Microsoft that you have lost the code. I don't know any way to get it back (I have the Vista code if it was still installed on the system - but not for each installed software). What is a Microsoft game? I didn't know this applies to 3 rd party software are well - I'm a little surprised, but it is not quite incomprehensible.
