someone please help me find my original product key / id for windows 8

Hello

If your laptop computer is pre-loaded with Windows 8, the activation key is stored in the chip of the Bios (in encrypted form) and activation occurs automatically if you reinstall Windows 8 using your recovery media.

Whatever it is, you can always use an application such as the free utility on the link below to read the key from the OS.

  • HP Envy 14 LR198AV: HP sold me PC with no valid Windows 7 or at least an invalid Windows product key and product ID

    I bought this PC in July 2011 and it is out of warranty.  After that of being harassed at level to Windows 10 months I decided to do it, but rather than the upgrade, I did a clean install from the laptop was malfunctioning.  I read on the Microsoft site that we could do it as long as they have Windows product key for Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 that was already installed on the machine.  I wrote that down with the Windows ID (different number).

    I've updated by downloading Windows 10 to a USB key and then the installation.  Seemed to work very well (I think that I entered my product in the process ID).  Now, a few weeks later I get a message that I need to "activate windows".  I called MIcrosoft after it could not activate using the ID that I and after 30 minutes on the phone they me said my Windows product ID and both are my "invalid" Windows product key  I would call HP and get this sorted - I have the original order number and Microsoft said that's all I need for HP to help me - but I am out of warranty and apparently help me unless I pay them $60.  Another alternative is to buy a new copy of Windows 10 and pay MIcrosoft money.

    I am shocked, because I'm simply doing what Microsoft has been harassment to me.

    BTW, the PC seems to work fine except the message to activate windows.  I guess that another option is to do nothing.

    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Available for the free upgrade until the end of July 2016, according to the latest rules from Microsoft Windows 10. Thus, you will be able to spend to Win 10 If you want. I'm not a fan of win 10, but if you want to upgrade to it I personally recommend the ISO for Win 7 upgrade method to win 10-

    # Download the ISO from MS site, burn it to a DVD, insert the DVD into the PC and start the process from inside Windows 7

    # Follow the on-screen instructions then

  • HP Pavilion DV6 laptop: how to find the windows product key

    Hi MarcoPolo777, for the key, you can use a software called produkey.

  • Satellite: Windows product key

    My laptop crashed during a firmware launched by Toshiba software update, I could not recover the soft recovery on the laptop and possibly (accidentally) formatted the drive using recovery software.

    I asked a USB recovery (£40 +!) and used to get the laptop works (or almost).  Now I be prompted to enter a Windows product key.

    The laptop was bought ex-affichage accompanies so no documentation and has no attached Windows sticker.  How can I get the key to enter?  HP would have a record or Microsoft?

  • Bad Windows product key during the installation of SP2

    Hi all, I have reinstalled windows XP.

    Then I followed the instructoin to download a tool of KeyUpdate and I put the product key in my laptop, it saids is not the correct key for windows I use.
    On-site product keys to compare, it says:

    However, I use a Windows Xp Home Edition and this CD key is fine with *-*-*-*-Q6JWG.
    And the product key for my laptop is fine with *-*-*-*-GCFKM.

    Then I download the Windows product key update tool and put in both the product key on the CD and laptop.
    Two of them doesn't work. I want to know how can I update the Service Pack for my windows. Can anyone help? THX!

    What can I do for this? THX!

    Hello

    I read a few threads about similar problems with the BONE key and the key change has always helped
    Sometimes, Microsoft rates the key of the image as incorrect or not valid. Why? I don't know... it's Microsoft you know ;)

    Fact is that the key on the cover of the CD can only be used to activate the software Microsoft Works or OneNote installed on the laptop. The key is not responsible for the Windows operating system.
    The key that could be used with the Win operating system is placed at the bottom of the unit.

    Well, according to your message you used this key and now I m a bit confused
    I think you should make a call to the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country to clear this problem

  • Question about "Windows 8.1 DG to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit" and Windows product key

    I have acquired a recnet ThinkPad T450 fdrom a retialer online (NCIX) and I hav ea a few questions about the installed Windows operating system.

    Before I just go further, HRE are some information about my particular system.

    Lenovo ThinkPad T450

    Model: 20BV00BUS

    CPU: Intel Core i5-4300U

    RAM: 4 GB

    Under the product description, it was stated "Windows 8.1 DG Windows 7 Pro 64." My understnading, the ThiknPad has been installed with Windows 8.1, but downgraded to Windows 7. There is also a Windows 8 Pro badge sticker at the bottom of the matchine.

    Is it possible, at the end of the user/consumer, to alter the functioning ti repressive back Windows 8.1?

    Can I create a recovery with Windows 8.1 disk?

    A separate but related matter relates to the Windows product key.

    I noticed the Ultrabook do not come with a sticker / label with the Windows product key (i.e. COST). Some quick research indicated that the Windows key is programmed into the BIOS.

    This indeed true (I wish an audit)?

    The key is visible in some way (for when you need to reinstall the operating system. I have not tried to enter the BIOS at the moment)?

    Thank you for taking the time to consider my question.

    Kind regards

    Victor L.

    Hi Victor,

    I'm in the same boat as you type, but want to keep the facilities of Windows 7 rather than pass them to 8. Just like you, I buy our Lenovo from different retailers and they come with windows 7 installed through the Windows 8 lower upgrade program.

    We had one or two laptops come with a recovery media (for windows 8/8.1 only) but have noticed that all laptops now come with no physical media or codes for the recovery. WIN8 stickers, you described is more came with the license key on the sticker (it comes to stop you using the same license again and again, microsoft will get more money if you buy another license etc.). I also saw that the key is essentially located in the BIOS but were not able to test what we use any of windows 8. I use it even at home!

    To answer your question, you can get a recovery of Lenovo for Windows 8 media!

    Go to the following link: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/lenovorecovery

    (It help you understand why this method is used on this page as well)

    Select Start,

    Please have your serial number of your laptop, (to find it go to this link: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/find-product-name)

    If you qualify (which you will very probably) Lenovo will ship for free, recovery disks give it a go, took me 2 minutes.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards, Max.

    you need to upgrade your version of windows to windows 10 first, then you can do a clean install.

    you don't need to enter any 10 windows product key during installation (if you did the upgrade first).

    Windows 10 will not accept any product key from older versions of windows if you do a clean install, you must buy a windows retail 10.

    A key active OEM_SLP automatic when all things are right - there no need to connect to the Activation of MS servers to do.

    If the conditions are not suitable for a triggered OEM_SLP key, then it will attempt activation with the servers of MS - they are blocked from activation and therefore return an 0xC004C003 error.
