Windows 10 clean install - need product key

• New HDD installed - Windows constantly asking for the product key

  HARD drive broke down, so I got a new HARD drive installed in the workshop for repairs a few months ago. Everything was fine until recently when Windows keeps always ask the product key to activate Windows. It is said that the license expires Dec. 27.
  Do you know where to find this key?

  If your laptop has Windows 8 or higher, Microsoft codes the license on the hard drive rather than put a sticker on the base. Sounds like the repair people could have used a dubious copy to reinstall it on the new hard drive. Microsoft may allow you to report it as pirate software, but I'm not sure they'll give you a free copy. The other alternative is to contact ToshIba to buy a complete set of recovery disks, or take it back to the shop.

• Wiping Hard Drive, Reinstalled with Windows 7 with upgrade disk product key error

  My computer has been acting upward, so I back up hard drive and erased the hard drive with the BACK CLEAN ALL command. I then reinstalled windows 7 from my Windows 7 Upgrade disk and restore my files on hard disk. The computer works fantastic and returned half of the memory of the hard drive. A few days later, I get a message on the screen that I have 30 days left until I can produce a product key from the original Windows installation, does not accept the upgrade product key.

  I tried the product key located on the bottom of my laptop for Windows Vista comes with the HP computer. It does not work and it gave me no disk backup for Windows Vista from HP.

  I called Microsoft and they told me to contact HP for the product key. I see on this forum that someone else has written a similar plea, because it is a plea, and HP said to contact Microsoft. In other words, Microsoft says to contact HP and HP says to contact Microsoft.

  I use Microsoft since Windows 3.2 operating systems and have bought a lot of products of them. It's my 3rd HP laptop, my wife is on her 2nd HP laptop. Well you know what? If I don't get this resolved quickly by one of your companies, and I'm not remember Microsoft, I'm through the two of you.

  I don't see where Microsoft is not being fooled off but when it's to the detriment of a loyal customer, so don't worry. HP is also responsible for this. An upgraded version of Windows 7 (to upgrade from Vista or XP) should be smart enough (and I thought it was) to remember that I had the original version and its product key should be enough. Also I don't never told me that I had to keep the old product keys, and it doesn't matter anyway because the product key is always available in my laptop HP, but it does not work.

  I'm not buying another HP without your help and actually buying an Apple Mac for my wife and my next computer if it is not resolved. I think that HP is probably as bad as Microsoft so that it will not be solved and I'm not shelling out more money for something I already own.

  The installed key is the key for Vista Home Premium Acer OEM_SLP - and it seems that you have installed using a retail disc.

  For what version and edition of Windows the COA sticker is valid? If it's for Vista Home Premium, you must change the key for that which concerns your COA sticker, using the link at the bottom of the system properties page.

  You may need to activate by phone.

• Unable to get updates of Windows after cleaning installed.

  Inspiron 1720, Win7 Ultimate x 64

  A clean installed today on a separate partition. Did not remove the existing installation of the same operating system by using the same key. The new facility will not download updates. C:\ shows many files from Windows.old. No matter what jump to anyone or is this Win10 Win10?

  PS This switch to Win7 Professional would help the situation?

  I should add that it is a slipstreamed SP1 version. I was able to get IE 11 installed without problem.

  Theres been a few problems with Windows Update with Windows 7 clean install for these last months... You can use the WSUS Offline Update Patch Windows 7, after that Windows Update works.

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/WSUS-offline-update/

  However since your goal is to make your system a Pro 10 Windows device. You better just download an .iso Windows 10 TH2 and pure install directly with your Windows 7 Ultimate product key:

  Hello

  Where was the product key you have lost?

  And you have a pre-installed OEM license or a retail license?

  If it is an OEM preinstalled contact license (Acer, Toshiba, etc.), the manufacturer and, ask them if you have a recovery Partition and if so, how to use it to reinstall the operating system to a new State by pressing F10, F11, or a sequence of different at startup button. or if you do not have a recovery partiiton asked to send you recovery disks, what they should do for a small fee.

  Or ways above to reinstall the operating system normally requires your share product key information

  And read this on the replacement of Microsoft Software:

• Windows 7 32 bit version product key - where can I get this (UK)?

  Windows 7 32 bit version product key - where can I get this (UK)?

  Product keys are not sold separately, "retail" versions of Windows are products in box with installation support 32 and 64 Bit and plastic a card inside the box that contains the key. Anyone who sells the right key is most like a crook.

  Since Microsoft stopped selling Windows 7 about 2 years ago, it is very unlikely, you can find media "Retail".

  OEM versions (which are related to the 1st computer they are installed / activated on and can not be moved / used on another computer) but may still be available.

• windows xp mode has a product key?

  windows xp mode has a product key?

  No you don't need any Pkey for XP mode.

  Windows Virtual PC, a Windows 7 feature, gives you the ability to run multiple environments of Windows such as Windows XP Mode on your Windows 7 desktop.

  It's the best of both worlds: the new Windows XP Mode allows you to run Windows XP older right on your Windows 7 desktop business software.

  Designed primarily with small and medium-sized businesses in mind, Windows XP Mode comes as a separate download and works only with Windows 7 Professional, comprehensive and business. Windows XP mode also requires virtualization as Windows Virtual PC software. Both are available for free on the Microsoft Web site.

• Please I need product key for my photoshop cs6, I work in trial mode and now it has expired

  Please I need product key for my photoshop cs6

  Fear the idea is that you test the software and if you make a purchase. Photoshop is not freeware. If someone were to give you a product key that would be software piracy. It would also be a very stupid thing to do because if you put CS6 on more than one machine their copy may stop working. If you don't handle Photoshop take a glance to GIMP running on Linux, OSX and Windows

• Windows 7 Home Premium, my product key on the bottom would work if I clicked on "change product key"?

  Original title: ASUS x501a Windows 7-8.

  Hi all

  I just registered here after having been a Microsoft user, since I started using computers, I think that when I started to use it is Windows XP haha, anyway.

  I'm running Windows 7 on the following specifications

  4 GB of Ram

  HARD DRIVE 300 GB

  Intel core i3 clocked at 2.6 GHz

  Intel HD 3000 graphics card

  and it's an Asus x501a comes with 7 not 8, so I've upgraded to Windows 8, then I found out, I removed my recovery partition. Oops.

  I know it's not a way to make it back, unless I did a copy of CD as I do not have.

  so, if I got a copy of my friends Windows 7 Home Premium, my product key on the lower part would work if I clicked on "change product key"?

  Thank you

  Jordan Doughty

  PS: Sorry for mistakes in my writing, I'm not used to a Macbook: P

  If your friend has a retail upgrade or full version and it corresponds to the edition of your PC, then Yes, you can use it.
