Windows 10: product key

i was trying to switch my product key to a new computer. i uninstalled it from my old one and typed it into the new one. it didnt work. now i have 2 unactivated computers instead of one. i have the application, activation, installation ID's and other info like that. can i use that to somehow activate windows?

:)

 

Where is my Product Key if I want to re-install?


Like davidhk said. But if you really want to see your windows key, I would suggest Belarc advisor. It will give you some useful information about your system, product keys of your software is among them (not only Microsoft, you will have listed most of your keys).
