Where can I find the product key on a pre-installed version of Windows 8?

I recently bought a n580 Lenova Ideapad with Windows 8 is installed. I was thinking about adding features; However, this requires the product key and I have been unable to locate him. I checked in the control panel under systems, but couldn't find the last 5 characters of the product key.

Thanks in advance for help to find my product key.

    Hello

    I bought a W530 with preinstalled Windows 7 and I have improved the system of Windows 8 using the discs. Now, I discovered that I do not have Windows 8, and I would go back on Windows 7. But I can not find the product key of windows 7 on the bottom of the laptop, and there is no Windows 7 recovery disk either.

    any suggesion would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    On recent ThinkPads, the sticker of the product ID key has been moved to the lower part of the unit behind the battery.

    You should contact Lenovo support directly to ask about a recovery media.

    Hello

    You can't find the product inside the Vista DVD key.

    Vista DVD retail are generic DVDs containing all editions of Vista and the product key is distinct for the DVD, but as part of the package you purchase.

    DVD OEM system manufacturers are the same.

    OEM Licenses pre-installed (HP, Acer, etc.) are the product key on COA sticker on the machine.

  • Where can I find the product key for Windows 7?

    Hi - I recently bought a laptop from Dixons. Where can I find the product to start key to use microsoft 7? I can't find it anywhere.
    Help, please!

    Hello

    I think that 90% of Toshiba laptops, you can find on the market come with preinstalled operating system. When you start it for the first time do NOT activate pre-installed OS. At the bottom of the laptop, you can find Windows sticker with valid license key.

    Maybe you bought for laptop computer without an operating system preinstalled. In this case, you need to install own OS and use the own license key.

    The question is: which model of laptop you have exactly and has your laptop comes with preinstalled operating system?

    For the correct answer, please provide more relevant information.

  • HP Pavilion DM1 - 4200sa: where can I find the product key Windows 10?

    Where can I find the Windows 10 product key for the upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8 to 10?

    Windows 10 uses 'digital right '.

    If you try to switch to 10 Windows from Windows 7 or 8 and try to do a clean install of ISO created media you find you need a product key that you do not.  The only way to do this successfully is to use the option upgrade of software downloaded using the tool of media Windows 10.  PC Worldhave highlighted that in Windows utility 10 as Magical Jelly Bean Key Finder or Belarc Advisor find the keys to generic product instead of faith.

    Windows Pro 10 key users will see KeyFinder or Belarc Advisor: VK7JG NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T.

    In 10240 build if you use the PowerShell script of Hexus forumson Windows 10 Pro he must fetch it: T44CG-JDJH7-VJ2WF-DY4X9-HCFC6.

    Microsoft uses now, apparently, a process called 'digital right' , which is stored in the BIOS so if you replace your motherboard, for example, your 'digital right' will probably disappear and will not activate Windows 10.

    So, before making any change sure to self-organization of backup!

  • Where can I find the product key for desktop Windows 8?

    I am trying to find the product key for my new hp desktop computer 8 windows. Where can if find it?

    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.

  • I have a product key for a pre-installed version of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, now I need an ISO standard for installation in a virtual machine

    Hello

    I bought a refurbished machine that came with Win 7 Pro pre-installed. I erased the HARD drive. Completely. Nothing more.

    I don't want Win 7 installed on the drive, but I need an ISO to install it in a virtual machine for research reasons.

    I tried to download the ISO of http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery, but when I gave the product key, I got a response that I should turn to the vendor of the computer and that is preloaded.

    When I did and asked an ISO, they told me to download from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery. This seems to be the only source for Windows ISOs left in the world.

    So, I run long in circles... infinte loop... :-(

    How can I solve this misery?

    Thanks for the replies!

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. ISO file which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options?

    See the article for more details: how: what are my options for getting Windows 7 reinstall media?
