Many times we need to re-install the operating system for many reasons, and if you are using windows then there are more chances that you re-install the OS. One common problem one faces during re-installation process is the product keys/serial nos/registration keys for software like MS-Office, Windows, Exchange Server, and SQL Server.We either misplace them or when you buy a PC with pre-installed software they may or may not provide the keys seperately.
There is an easy way to keep track of the keys for the above mentioned softwares. ProductKey is a small utility that displays the ProductID and the CD-Key of MS-Office, Windows, Exchange Server, and SQL Server installed on your computer. You can view this information for your current running operating system, or for another operating system/computer – by using command-line options. This utility can be useful if you lost the product key of your Windows/Office, and you want to reinstall it on your computer.
Download this from NirSoft’s website and unzip it. Run the ProduKey.exe, then it will give you the list of your installed softwares and their product keys which you could save/print for further reference.
