    Windows 10 Product Key


    Sony Vaio

    VGN-FW350D

    Original OS: Vista Home Premium (I have the Product Key)

    HDD: Toshiba MK3252GSX HDD2H01


    This system came with a free upgrade to Win 7 Home Premium (I have the disc with product key). I upgraded and ran Win 7 for years. Then I bought Win 10 Home Premium from MS online, downloaded, and installed it. Do you think I kept the product key handy? I wish!! When the Win 10 April 2018 update occurred, the system stopped working and got stuck in an update loop. I attempted to roll back to Win 7 with no luck. As you know, Vista is no longer supported. Nor does Sony support the Vaio, other than to offer it's useless Vaio Care application.


    I'd like to re-install Win 10, but where do I get the license key from if the system won't boot?


    Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    windows 10 key

    Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

    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.

    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.
