Product ID

Hi Russell,

We appreciate the information you've provided regarding the product ID. To resolve your concern, we suggest that you do the following steps:

• Click on Start and type: Command Prompt.
• Right click on it and select Run as administrator.
• Type: wmic path SoftwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey.
• Press Enter. That should give you the product key to type in the activation.

Product Key

Keys are not required for the upgrade process. Windows 10 has a built-in generic key which it uses to install - it acquires the underlying Win7/Win8 activation during the upgrade process and assigns your device ID as a valid Windows 10 activated device. Subsequent installs will thus activate using your device ID. You will not require a key - should you be prompted, select "skip". Activation is automatic thereafter.

Can Product Id be used as Product Key to Activate Windows 10?

Can Product Id be used as Product Key to Activate Windows 10?

So there's a guy who was checking my PC and he asked if my Windows was pirated or Official, I said Official, then he asked me for the Product Id, he doesn't know that Product Id and Key aren't the same things, so to fool him I gave him my
Product Id, from This Pc properties, which specifies only the versions of Windows I'm using, by the way I'm using Windows 10, now I'm concerned that, if he can use my
"Product Id" to activate his Windows or not, 'cause I don't want him to, he just wants a free Official copy of Windows and I can't let that happen. Also I want to tell you guys that my Product is linked with my Gmail Id, so will I be notified
that someone is trying to use my product key and activate Windows or has activated so that I can block further more use of my Product key.

Please help!
