    Need Either Software Or VBS script to recover Win & MS Product Keys


    I'm currently working on Some Laptop that appears to have been recently upgraded from either windows 8 or 7 to windows 10 home, and has come with some configuration errors that would be best suited to have the entire OS re-imaged with a standard Windows 10 ISO. I just need to get the little product keys installed into the system extracted, to re-input after after imagining. I just need either a VBS script or Exe, that will display the full keys of both the Home Edition, and "Work and Student" Microsoft Office package. Now I also checked for any recovery partitions, which it doesn't seem to have, nor does the Client have the Original Product key'd CD that it would have originally come with. So anything helps. Thanks.

    You do not need any key to reinstall Windows 10 as you have a digital licence tied to mobo hardware id, and this is stored on MS activation servers i e. windows 10 installation compares hardware id with online records, and if a match is found, it activates automatically.

    Re. Office, Produkey will recover an office key for Office 2007/2010 but for 2013 onwards, it is not possible as key is now encrypted.

    MS Office 2013 and later came in two different versions, one known as Click-to-RUN (CTR). If yours is the CTR version, there is NO WAY to recover the entire product key because it simply is not stored on the PC.
