Is there anything I can do to find my original product key without having to buy a whole new?

Original title: my product key is passed out to

My my laptop product key is missing so I can see it only slightly, and I don't have the CD or anything else. Now my lap top doesn't let me access my desktop. Is there anything I can do to find my original product key without having to buy a whole new?

... my lap top won't let me access my desktop...

If your laptop is you allowing access to your office and you can run a program, download the Belarc Advisor and run it on the computer. Among a large amount of hardware and software information will be the original product code for your Windows Vista and any desktop software you have loaded.

If need be, download it from another computer and transfer the file of configuration via USB stick, CD or network.

    Assuming that you are dealing with a PDF file provided by the IRS, you will not be able to e-sign. but you can fill the fields using Adobe Reader or Acrobat. The version of form W-9 that I have does not include a date field, but you can use the feedback tool add text to add a date. You can also digitally sign or use the annotation of pencil tool to draw a signature.

  • Is there somewhere I can go online to check my product key?

    I need to replace the hard drive in my Dell Inspiron.  I need the product key on the label at the bottom of the laptop, and it is being worn.  I think I can read it by taking a picture of him with my digital camera, but I wonder if there's somewhere I can go online to check the number?

    Your key on the sticker is unique and you won't find that it listed online. Your best bet is using the camera or a glass magnifying and light source which is held at different angles to bring out the letters and numbers.

  • How can restore files & apps after a PC Refresh (without having to buy anything)?

    After that my daughter was using my PC, I discovered that she had accidentally made an update of the complete system (apparently distracted by her little brother). She was just looking around and clicking on things randomly, trying to learn more about the PC, but now all my files & apps disappeared and nothing has yet been saved. Help, please! I have the list of deleted files & apps but no idea how to get back them. I found a site that says it can do anything but I have to buy their product and I'd rather not.

    Things you tile store... Just go to the store... and then right-click on the graphics and a top bar opens... says something about the installed applications...  Look there and you can reinstall your purchased applications or all the other apps you had installed.

    If the documents and pictures are gone... they are very likely gone forever if you don't have the file history or did not have any backups.      Same thing with your Desktop installed programs, so no system image or no restore disc - theyre gone manufacturer.   You will need to send an email and get your registration key product and new downloads if you do not have the cd/dvd to reinstall these paid programs.

  • Need to find the original product key Windows 8 to reactivate the laptop!

    Hello

    I bought the laptop with Win 8 pre - install a few months back. Today, I decided to try to install Windows Media Center, and so after a bit of research I was directed to a Web page that said looking for 'add features' on the sidebar to win 8. She provided a cd key too that the requested Web site would be to activate Windows 8 Pro (including the media) for 90 days as a trial.

    To put in this new product key in and restart the computer, I now get the error code: 0xC004F074 on the Activation of Windows program, but also a watermark at the bottom that says: "activate Windows, go into settings of PC to activate Windows.

    The trial of course did not work and the product key is not valid. I would go back to the use of the product key of Windows 8 that came with the laptop, but I don't have the box of the laptop and there is no sticker on the bottom with the windows key on it 8. I tried a cd key recovery program, but the only key that appears is invalid I put in today, and not the key ive used since the first day.

    I live in the United Kingdom, but the laptop was purchased in a store online in America.

    Do you have any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance!

    Its likely that your computer came with Windows 8 and not Windows 8 Pro. You cannot add a key Windows 8 Pro Pack or Media Center unless you bought. There is no option available test.

    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.

    My recommendation would be to restore your computer to its factory settings:

    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 Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

  • I dropped my iPhone 4S and now the touchscreen does not work. Is there a way I can fix it without having to buy another or should I buy another?

    I dropped my iPhone 4S and now the touchscreen does not work. Is there a way I can fix it without having to buy another or should I buy another? (my screen is cracked)

    From what I see, Apple does not screen repair for any older than the iPhone iPhone 5. I don't see off-warranty, replacement cost for 4 on their page of repair, but I'm figuring you would spend at least $200 to get a new.

    Would be better to see if your cell phone operator has the options of upgrade for you.

    Hello

    You n don't need to buy anything.
    WinZip is free. You can also use the WinRAR.
    You notice just a pop who recommend buying a full version, but it is not necessary to decompress single packages.

    As I have said; install WinRAR. I use this tool too. in my opinion it of better than Winzip.

  • 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.

  • I already bought the movie HD, 'V for Vendetta', before it came with "iTunes Extras" but my purchased copy does not come with the Extras. Is there a way to fix this without having to buy the movie again?

    I already bought the movie HD, 'V for Vendetta', before it came with "iTunes Extras" but my purchased copy does not come with the Extras. Is there a way to fix this without having to buy the movie again?

    I was told that movies in the iTunes Store can be changed to include "iTunes Extras" if originally it did not come with extras. But there is a catch you get just the extras if you buy just the issue for the first time. If you have already purchased it, your version may not have the extras. This means that if you want the extras, buy the movie again.

    If you now get the Extras will depend on what the movie studio did for example if they have updated the version you have purchased, or replaced by a new version (which will be treated as a separate purchase): buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support

    First stop typing in all capitals, as this is considered as yelling and is rude.
     
    RAM is physical memory and to increase the size of the physical memory in the computer, you need to buy more memory.
     
    There are methods available to physical memory, you have in computer programs, such as reducing the memory allocated amount to a shared video adapter, reducing the number of programs and services that are running when the computer starts, but deleting files from the hard drive of the computer will not increase the amount of available memory.
     
    This explains the difference between physical memory and memory available http://www.sharpened.net/helpcenter/answer.php?76
     
    http://www.jasonn.com/turning_off_unnecessary_services_on_windows_xp talks about disabling services (be careful here, because you may cause the computer to become inadmissible.)
     
    What ever you stay away from the optimizers registry or similar to the registry cleaner programs.
