• This product key cannot be used to install a version of windows 8

  I bought a new computer dell laptop and you want to install windows 8 again. It came with Windows 8 Core with is the unique language of 64-bit

  I downloaded the windows Upgrade Wizard 8.

  Then I discovered my product key with keyfinder.

  I ran the upgrade wizard then copied the product key and it shows the message - this product key cannot be used to install a version of windows 8

  I ran windows Update and it allowed me to download the update, which means my Windows 8 is authentic then why I am not able to install windows 8.

  I'll be able to install the kernel of windows 8 with Windows 8 iso pro?

  Hello

  Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
  Windows 8 that came with your PC is OEM type license and is one you want to install the retail type license. Two licenses have different installation keys, so commercial version will not accept EM key and vice versa.
  In addition, Windows 8 Pro key is different from Windows 8 "Core" key. You may not use the button either.

• Product key for win 8 doesn't work no-error: this product key cannot be used to install a copy of windows retail.

  I bought a copy of windows 8 for the upgrade to windows 7 from the Microsoft store. I need to reinstall the hard drive on this machine, but when I download the installer of windows 8 on another machine to try to create a bootable USB I get an error message when I put in the product key (which I paid for) who says: this product key cannot be used to install a copy of windows retail.

  How can I get this problem?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  Ideally, there are two types of product keys: key to retail version key upgrade and full. The key to upgrade is used to upgrade the version of the operating system when you have the lower version of the operating system already installed on the system, for example, if you have already installed Windows 7 system, you can use the upgrade of Windows 8 to upgrade (override) currently installed Windows 7 to Windows 8. This product key cannot be used to download the installer of Windows 8 and create a bootable for installing Windows 8 from scratch.

  However, the key of the full version allows to download the installer of Windows 8 and create a Windows 8 boot disk to install a full version of the operating system.

  According to your description, you have reinstalled the hard drive on your machine and want to install Windows 8 by creating a bootable. Thus, you will always have the above error message while downloading executable files for Windows 8.

  There are two options you can try to install Windows 8 on your system:

  • Replace the key with a key to the version upgrade complete on the Microsoft Store and follow the procedure as you said in your post. You will not get the error message given.
  • If you have the Windows 7 installation media, you can try to install Windows 7 on the reinstalled hard drive. After activating this operating system, you can try to upgrade to Windows 8 by using the product key that you have already purchased.

  Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

• Windows 7 Professional 64 bit product key cannot be used?

  Well, I bought a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit and I try to update my PC after installing on the new PC to my father that I built for him. When I installed it on my gaming PC, everything was fine, but now I'm doing it on my work PC and it comes up saying that the key cannot be used on this computer! What! And yes the key that I use IS the one that came with my Windows software. It is NOT for the office, but for Windows 7! What is the PROBLEM! When I bought this copy of Windows I wanted to use it on several PC in our House. Product key should work whenever I use it! I paid for this thing, and the key is legitimate! And I won't go to the table more of 100 to 200 dollars for ANOTHER copy of windows just if I have a product key to be used; It's ridiculous!

  you may not use the software on any other computer.

  You agreed to the end user license agreement when you install. André has repeated the first part of the above agreement. Whether you like it or not, these are the conditions of the license. You cannot use the same key on multiple computers.

• Try to install Photoshop on a new computer and receive an error message

  I try to install photoshop cs2 on my new mac and get the error message "Can't open the app monitorAndSublaunch because that PowerPC applications are no longer supported"?

  You need to update, Yes, but you have several options:

  1. New version of Photoshop CS6 (the most expensive option). CS2 is too old to qualify for the upgrade price.
  2. Buy Photoshop Elements 12

• Windows 8 Pro update product key cannot be used to activate Windows after an installed cleaning

  Hi guys,.

  I bought a Windows 8 Pro Upgrade and received the product key I used to download and run a clean install to my laptop using a USB Flash drive (format my HD then install). But now, in my new installed Windows 8, I can't use this product key to activate Windows as it says that the key is for an upgrade, not a clean install. I was not aware of this problem when I did the clean install. So, how can I activate my Windows now?

  It! s a upgrade, you need to UPGRADE your existing system. New installation is not supported. I'm sorry.

  This is simply not true.

  If you had a hardware problem and you will need to re - install Windows 8, you can do this by using installation media that the wizard allows you to create (or installation media that you ordered, if you chose to order discs).

  If you don't have installation media, you can re - install your older version of Windows and rerun the upgrade.

  Whatever it is, you will need the product key you received when you paid for Windows 8. If you choose to do a clean install of Windows 8 from the installation media, you will also need to call Customer Service for help activating your copy of Windows.

  Kind regards
