    Retrieve Windows 10 Product key installed on the PC


    I purchased the PC with preinstalled windows 5 years back. Therefore I do not have the product key.


    The hard disk is giving problems and it needs to be replaced. Please share my activation key so I do not face any problems reloading windows.

    Retrieving Product Key From Install?

    Hi, my Call of Duty 4 is installed on a Windows 7 PC I have

    But unfortunately I've lost the key, and any bloody mice I plug into the PC don't work, so I can't click into the game to get the key :|

    Is there a way to get it from the registry?

    Thanks

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
