    Need help reinstalling product key


    So, I rebuilt an existing desktop that came with Windows 10. Unfortunately, it seems as though the product key has been misplaced. I tried running the troubleshooting thing and it didn't work. Can someone help me recover the product key associated to my Microsoft account?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Product Key

    Hi Oscar,

    Since the laptop has no battery compartment wherein the product key is usually located, we recommend that you follow these steps to find your Windows product key:

    • Press Windows + X and select Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Enter this command: wmic path SoftwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey
      and hit Enter.

    Also, if you're looking to reinstall Windows 10 after a hardware replacement, we recommend that you follow the steps provided in this

    article
    .

    Let us know if performing these steps resolved the issue.

    Product key

    Hi Megan,

    A product key is used when activating a software.
    To help us determine the appropriate troubleshooting steps that can resolve your concern, we'd like to ask the following questions:

    • What product are you trying to activate?
    • Are you looking for the product key to activate your Office application?
    • Which version of Office are you trying to activate? To check this, you can perform the steps posted on this
      link.
    • Are you looking for the product key to activate your Windows?

    We look forward to your response.

    windows live product key

    Hi,



    Thank you for your response.


    • Did you download the ISO of the Game from the Steam?
    It is not Windows Live Key, it’s a game product key which is required to install the game.

    I suggest you to check with Steam for Product key and check if it helps.



    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist
