Batu69 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 If you're preparing to reinstall a program or an operating system (like a clean install of Windows), you'll need to find your unique product key (CD key) or serial number before continuing.Normally this product key is located with the original install disc, or maybe in your order confirmation email. If you've lost your product key you can often find it in the Windows Registry but this can be difficult, or sometimes even impossible, to do. Luckily, there are many free key finder programs available to help.Important: Please read Key Finder Programs FAQ for lots of helpful information. This isn't an easy topic, especially if you're new to it.Below are the top 22 free key finder programs. also keep a list of commercial key finder programs but highly recommend that you exhaust the options below before paying for one.A List of the Best Free Product Key Finder Software Programs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalju Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 It is true that these gadgets are available, but most of them do not work as early as birth.This does not mean that at all does not work - they show something, but rarely show correct numbers.Especially the ones that should show Microsoft product activation keys.The reason is simple - there are different methods for activation and activation keys are stored in different ways and in different places.Example: I bought a computer with Windows 7 OEM - was installed, then Windows 8 Retail , Windows 8.1 Retail, and now Windows 10 Retail. All different activation keys.So now I have at least two different keys installed, but all these widgets can find only one, and of course, they give the wrong serial.
