    How to Reclaim Old GFWL Product Keys Service Dead


    Hello,


    I've been trying to migrate my RE5 save-data via the in-game feature so that I can utilize Steamworks. However, any attempt to do so asks for a Product Key which I can no longer acquire as the old GFWL services always throw up an error when it tries to download my previous purchase-history data.

    Is there some other way I can retrieve them?

    :)

    How To Get Product Key for GFWL Store Purchase

    Years ago, when Microsoft first launched their Games for Windows Live store they had a promotion where you could get Age of Empires III complete collection for $0.10, so naturally I jumped on it. I had it installed on my other hard drive before Microsoft
    shut down the download service, but I recently re-installed windows on a new hard drive. I went to try and play AoE3 off the old install, but it is now asking for a product key, which I can't get since Microsoft shut down the old store. I was wondering if
    there's any way for me to get the product keys for things purchased on the old GFWL store so that I can play AoE3 again? It shows up in my purchase history that I bought this, but AoE3 doesn't seem to exist on the current Microsoft Store.

    Same with me, did you ever find a fix? This is a bit of a joke. If you've paid for a product they should keep GFWL running so you can install. I can understand if they retire it not to sell new stuff. Games should never ever of been allowed to be so tightly entwined with a service that may not last. The amount of people stung by this and Windows 10 not running games with securom/safe disc is a joke
