    Thanks SF am not that concerned really because I am pretty certain I have the right key but was more curious as to why it wouldn't run.
    I have 10 activated via an OEM on another drive for this machine and probably will be using it more when we get back from the UK.
    But thanks for your time and patience I do appreciate it.

    Excellent utility! However, I'm wondering if there is any way to invoke ShowKeyPlus to run and export keys via command line switches?

    I'm trying to inventory a small business with about 100 users, most of which are field sales reps who rarely connect to the corporate network. I've got a logon script set up to pull the keys and write them to a network share when they do connect. However, I'm only able to pull the "Installed Key" using this process. I also want to pull the "OEM Key" to keep for reference after upgrading them from Win7 to Win10.

    I'm unable to figure out how to do this reliably with VBS and Powershell scripts. Your program finds it perfectly every time but I can't get it to export keys in an automated, silent fashion.

    Is this functionality something you'd be willing to add?

    Yes, will be in the upcoming master release.

    John, it uses 7-zip compression - but don't worry too much with that version - it was built for sys-admins who may need to run it from batch files etc...

    I'm working on a more Win 7 compatible version that may be better for your circumstances.
    I'd like to do something similar as well, that pulls all (both) information and saves it the way ShowKeyPlus does.. that other apps/ progs dont do. Some way to execute and retrieve. Do share once its done.. and prisoner.. please share how to do deploy and retrieve from those 100.

    xbliss now I don't know if this is what you might like to use but both are good in 7 at least if you are talking about running 7 & 10 like I have on the one machine.

    I have used bunch of tools including NirSoft ProduKey - This seems to pull "more" information.

    Sorry late reply - on vacation and travelling around a fair bit but I will try the Nirsoft as well even though the MJB and Belarc do give me the correct key am really curious as to why Showkey doesn't but I think Superfly is working on some fixes too..

    I'm invoking it via GPO login script. You can use VBScript or Powershell, whatever floats your boat.

    No Super still no go but as I said I know the codes - it was out of curiosity because my other machines work with it.
    Now if you may think it might be my AV I have the same on all my machines
