Question Word 2002 product key:

I have an old copy of Microsoft Works 2002 laying around. I installed it and the word part wants a product key. It's not just about anywhere is. What can I do?  CD's are legitimate, lost the original case.

Works 9 is win7 compatible versions are not

If you don't have the key, there is nothing you can do, unless possibly you have receipt for the purchase of origonal.

Its also the case that if it comes to a new PC and there is a trial Office pre-installed, you will need to uninstall the trial before installing an earlier version of Word

  • Two questions about my product keys

    (1) I have 2 computers on Windows 7, both of them have now been upgraded to Windows 10.

    Now, however, I have a new computer that does nothing about it. IS that IT WORKS if I use my product keys for Windows 7 on this new computer and then not upgrade the computer to Windows 10?

    (2) I have a product key on my laptop. It might belong to Windows Vista or Windows 7, I can't say. Is there an online tool, or some sort of site where I can type my code and see which version of the product key belongs to? The only other thing I thought was calling or chatting with a MS customer service agent to discover the truth.

    That's all!

  • Questions: product key for Win 7 Home Prem-64 bit on renovated 6000 HP Office

    Hello

    I'm looking for assistance. A few questions about my product key and my type of PC.

    I bought a refurbished Hewlett Packard 6000 PC from Best Buy in 2011 and it is come preinstalled (no windows disk) with Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) OS. It is authentic.

    It has 2 hard drives. The big one is a 750G which has 2 partitions (part devoted only to the BONE and space remaining for usual use and still has plenty of space to breathe (585G).) Then, there is a disc of 14G it's strictly for the restoration of windows and recovery. It is nearly full with about 1 G to save.

    I am not sure I want 10 Windows because it seems to be so many problems and I cannot afford a new PC hardware or download new software at the moment and I need my PC for a living. I use Norton 360 Security and backup on an external hard drive at the moment.

    1) if I try Win 10 and decide I don't like, I will always be able to return to my original Windows 7 Home Premium?

    2) if I need, can I use my product key with another disc of Windows 7 Home Premium is exactly what I have installed now (did not come with my PC), or is it illegal? I do not want to break the law or action illegal without knowing it.

    Since Windows 10 came out, I had problems with my PC more.

    From what I can tell, t seems to behave more like a "domain server" one "computer staff home.»

    I restored it to factory twice during this time settings, but I keep my automatic windows update and I wonder if there may be some updates that should not be installed due to the release of 10 windows that add to the question.

    3) when it passes through their free offer 10 widows, it is a full version? And does go from Win 7 to 8 Win, then to win 10? Or just have it go right to win 10 of Win 7?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Installation of the HP factory is the worst install of Windows, you can have, entrelardé a ton of bloatware that duplicates and interferes with the older versions of built-in features of the operating system, suffers from endless problems.  Therefore no tech fan would have never run the installation of the factory (or an upgrade on Windows 10 place) but prefer clean reinstall Windows 7 with the product key on the COA sticker.

    Now check if the product key on the COA sticker is there and readable.  It took for them to sell you Windows software pre-installed to legally.

    If Yes, then you can solve all these problems at once by a Clean install Windows 10 Upgrade skip the product key during install then after activation with your Windows 7 key.  As long as stick you with tools and methods in the link that you will have no problem because there is no reported for those who follow.

    Do not hesitate to ask back and let us now how it goes.

  • Difference on the installation disc and computer product key

    Hello

    Why is the product key on the different installation for Windows 7 Ultimate disc from that on my computer that verifies a genuine copy was installed?  In other words, the product key on the installation disc has a combination of letters and numbers.  However, the product key on my computer that verifies that you have a genuine copy of Windows 7 Ultimate installed has only numbers.

    Thank you in advance.

    MoPete

    The product ID is never really entered into the computer, what you have on the label is a 24-bit coded version which decodes the installation process to form the product ID.

    If you have already built a system by entering the 25 character key, you will see a small break after entering the key. This is the decoding of the key system and then check the type of product with the version of the software being installed.

    Also, be aware that if your system is a large manufacturer and shipped with Windows preinstalled, then the encrypted key can not match the label. If you use a utility such as magic jellybean keyfinder on a system, it can retrieve this key encrypted in the registry. This key is different from the label, because all systems supplied by the manufacturer with a particular version of Windows will have the same key. This avoids having them to enter a key on all of the PCs they do individually and do not have to be authenticated on the line.

  • 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.

  • V.2002 of MS Windows XP Pro SP2 OEM from Newegg in 2006 would not agree on shrinkwrap product key during installation

    I bought v.2002 of MS Windows XP Pro SP2 OEM from Newegg in 2006.  She would never accept the product key during the installation on his blister.  To complete the installation, I used a different key of a second OEM disk, and it worked.  It's been a while since I installed XP; but I was working on this computer lately and realized I never knew why the CD has had this problem or how to fix it.  I have 3 questions.  #1: the key on the blister does not match the key in "unattended installation. TXT "; is this normal?  #2: the key in "unattended installation. TXT doesn't work anymore.  #3.   Any ideas on this subject?  Thank you, Jeff.

    The only thing I can think is that you were consistantly entered a bad key - it's almost unknown fo that there is to be a wrong key on the label and it is much more likely to be a case of misreading of the key, which is not easily read in the best of light (which is why I often use a torch and a magnifying glass).

    I guess it's vaguely possible that this is a substituted forgery (some thieves employee pirateshave shoplifter and employees take to counterfeit and bring out the true copies).

    I'm surprised that the other has worked, if it had already been installed on another PC - they are locked for the life of the first motherboard on which they are enabled.

    The key in the file 'unattend.txt' is a dummy - it cannot be enabled and is not normally get used except in the OPK.

    Hello, the product key is normally printed in the retail packaging or is sent in the confirmation email in case you made a digital purchase. However there is a support forum for the mozilla firefox browser. If you continue to have problems to get the desktop software to work, please contact support Microsoft instead since it is their product.
