Extracting Your Windows 10 Key

Ugh, I know the feeling. I hate it too, but sometimes we have to reinstall Windows for one reason or another. I'm betting you lost your Windows key and the machine no longer has a Windows key sticker on the bottom. (assuming it's a laptop)

No worries, let's get you that Windows key. Its quick and simple.

- Press WIN + R. This will open the Run dialog.

- Type cmd.exe and press Enter/Return.

- Now type wmic path softwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey and press Enter/Return.


Boom! Copy down your key for later use. Enjoy!
