Did you mean Product Key?

Windows 7 does not come for free.

You had to have bought it, or had it preinstalled on a new computer back in the day.

The Product Key consists of 25 digits, divided into 5 groups of 5 digits and the layout looks like this:

xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx

The 24 used are:
2346789BCDFGHJKMPQRTVWXY

The 12 unused are:
015AEILNOSUZ

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

If installed and activated and a Retail or OEM system Builders license and you have lost the product key that came with the purchase use these free programs:

Belarc Advisor - Belarc, Inc.

KeyFinder | Magical Jelly Bean

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

If you bought it from Microsoft:

Find your downloads and product keys

Most software you buy directly from Microsoft Store as a digital download, like Office, Windows, and Xbox games, can be downloaded, installed, or reinstalled in order history. Find the software and then select Product key/Install.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

If OEM preinstalled (Dell, HP, etc.) license:

The COA sticker, which has the Product Key on it, is either on the underside of the Laptop or in the Battery Compartment.

With a Desktop it is either on the side, rear or top of the Computer Case.





Product Key finder programs do NOT find a useable product key on OEM preinstalled operating systems (Dell, HP, etc.)

Key Finder Programs used on preinstalled Operating Systems only find the Manufacturer's Product Key which was used on multiple machines during manufacture and what they find is not suitable to use for a reinstall or activation problems.

 

Serial number

The serial number should be on a sticker somewhere on the desktop.

You can also go into the BIOS to find the serial number.

This link has the info, it says laptop, but should be the same steps:
