    Installed W11 through flash drive, now my product key does not work.


    Hello,earlier today I tried installing windows 11 through flash drive, as when I did it through the installation wizard, I got gsod every single time. I followed some tutorials that I found online, the problem started when I was unable to find my product key through my cmd or powershell, the third option on every website showed me to use regedit if the two doesnt work, so I did exactly that. As not that experienced windows user I thought that I had it and that it was all, so I proceeded with installation of new system, when I was asked to provide my product key, I provided it. All went fine un

    Product Key for Installation Flash Drive

    I recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 10. Afterward, had some problems and need to reinstall it, so I created an installation flash drive (per the instructions from Microsoft). Now, however, before I can use it, I need a Product Key.

    Where can I find this? Do I have to BUY a new Product Key?

    Thanks!!

    Product Key for Installation Flash Drive

    You don't need a product key. You made an upgrade to Windows 10 from older system, so activation server remembered your laptop. Now, you can make a clean install from flash drive and your Win10 will activate automatically.

    Activate W10 with W11 product key?

    You can clean install Windows 10, same version, Home or Pro, and it will auto activate. Or... you can make Windows 11 just like Windows 10... Windows 11 Tweaks - Leader Board. | Windows 11 Forum

    The START Menu is really the only serious difference... and it's not THAT different.
