Lost windows 7 product key

[Daniel]

Since the last few days I have the following problem. I want to reinstall my windows 7 professional. Logicial I want to write down my product key first but it's not in the registry. The key is still active otherwise I couldn't use windows so the key is not invalid or something like that. Foolishly there isn't a note on the housing and I have no CD or DVD. I have already tried many key-finding-programs and cmd-commands but nothing worked. May someone help me to find the key?

OP this PC activated by corporate MAK-key or VLK - it's pirated OS or stolen PC

I don't remember if one can active through that number?

Anyway if he just reinstall Windows on the same machine won't it activate all by itself over Internet and some data/hash from his motherboard / TPM / hardware?

In that case then, the only alternative is to buy Windows again. These volume licenses are meant for business users aren't they?

Either an OEM Windows 7 Pro or Windows 10 Pro. If the OP is only intending to use the computer for home use and play games, Windows 10 Home would suffice. Waste of time paying extra pro when most people don't need it.

If there is a solution for this problem please tell me. I have been trying to solve this problem for many days. All of my friends can't help me. I will search for it too. If I don't get a solution I think I will buy a new key/windows.

You can just download and install Win10 64bit
Buy key later if need be.

Only if the server online, accessible outside the intranet and the license has not been withdrawn - under the terms of such a computer can be transferred to an individual outside the enterprise, for which obtained a license, only without the OS and activation, and security regulations require erasing the disk according to the standards as a minimum, Departament of Defence - transmission of such a computer with the operating system and licensed it to an individual - it's malfeasance in office or carelessness.

Pirate's activator, or an accomplice - the system administrator, or carelessness in the sale of obsolete equipment or equipment seized by bailiffs - It is the main source of the such PC.

if the system is relatively new, then put the W10, as has been said above
if it is not new - the Linux
other options against the rules

No free upgrades any longer so I assume that won't become an activated copy.

I'm not sure I follow. It's a used machine from the DoD which someone has brought back home and want to reinstall?

Organizations (like DoD) have rules and so does Microsoft regarding Bulk Keys (MAK) for Businesses.

If the system is to be re-used outside of the Organization, then the Drives should be secure-wiped and then provided a new Product Key in order to keep using that OS outside of the organization and/or organization's network (which the user might need to purchase themselves) in order to best transition that system from "Office" to "Home" ~ or for any re-sale purposes.

Usually when someone like DoD gets rid of systems (which alot of organizations do via auction for upgrade purposes) they generally will destroy the HDDs and not contain those with such a system; as per security protocols.

Yeah, from you replying with a link I was reminded that there was one method.
