Which product key are you referring to? Is it the Windows Operating System product key? If that's what you are talking about then I suggest that you contact microsoft customer service.

Product key label torn how to recover

Hi Amanda Gonzales - If you would like to recover just the number for your product Key, it is usually located in the Registry of your computer. Product Key Finder is a free app that you can download and then look up the number. Then, copy down somewhere safe to have if you need to reinstall your copy of Windows. *This app will ask to install other programs, so be sure to just install the one you need. Hop this helps.

I need the product key of this model.

different laptops have different product key even if they're from the same model range. if you haven't formatted the drive, you can use a "product key backup" software provided that you can still log into windows to backup your activation info beforehand and restore this info after you finish with the formatting. otherwise, you will have to forward this issue to Microsoft.

PRODUCT KEY

The product key, assuming you have a legitimate package, is often on a SMALL label inside the package.

If you have an illegal copy chances are the number has been registered already and you won't be able to register it anyway.

If the label is missing you MAY be able to return the whole original package to the seller or Microsoft to get a complete package.

2002 microsoft product key

The key usually is on a sticker/label on the PC itself.
Otherwise if you lost it, I'm afraid there's nothing much we can do since we cannot prove to Microsoft that there really is a missing key, since there are plenty of people who will claim they lost there key in order to obtain one, even when they never owned one. You see what I'm saying here?

There's an option though. When Windows is installed it mostly has an option to register it a Microsoft. If you did you can call 'em and tell them to look op your registration. That'll prove you have legitimate copy of Windows.

You can contact them by clicking the Contact us link at the bottom of the Microsoft site's main page.
