You probably receivedWindows 10as a free upgrade, so everything was done automatically for you, and you didn’t have to worry about anyproduct keys, activation steps and stuff like that. But if you want to know theproduct keyof your copy ofWindows 10just in case, I’m going to show you how to easily find it.
How to find Windows 10 Product Key?
The WindowsProduct keyis actually not easy to find manually, because you’ll have to go through various registry scripts. So, not only that you’ll waste your time, you can also damage something in the registry, andthere will be trouble.
But thankfully, there’s much easier solution. You can use some key-finder tools which will show you yourproduct keyin seconds.
How to locate your Windows 10 product key with ProduKey
I personally recommend NerSoft’s ProduKey, because it’s extremely simple tool to use and it will show youproduct keysof other software as well, not just your system. Clickhere and download ProduKeyfor free and it will immediately show you yourproduct key.
You don’t even have to install it, justextract the .rar fileand open the tool. Another good thing is that this tiny program doesn’t load your computer with junk promotional software and it doesn’t change your default search engine, like many programs do.
Speaking of which, if you want to change your default search engine in Microsoft Edge, check outthis article.
As I said, using this software is very easy. Just open it and it will show you the name of the software, it’s Product ID and most importantly it’sProduct Key. If you double click on the name of any listed software, it will show you even more detailed info, and you can easily copyproduct keyand everything else wherever you want.
I know you’re skeptical about using a third-party software while performing a system-related task. It’s okay, I was skeptical too. But you don’t have to worry about ProduKey, because it’s completely safe and it won’t damage your computer with malicious content. At the end of the day, it’s much more simple than going through complicated registry paths by yourself.
