ShowKeyPlus is a free and portable application to recover and save Windows license after formatting.
The software works in a similar way to Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder, showing you the Windows OEM product key 10 Y 8, as well as editing, version and product ID of this operating system.
Recover Windows OEM Key
When you format your PC, all data is removed from your computer. This means that when you reinstall Windows you won't find anything, not even the activation key that was included when you bought your computer.
Fortunately, there are alternatives to recover this key. For more experienced users, it will be easy to do it manually using some CMD commands, PowerShell or through scripts. Despite this, for beginners it won't be so easy.
That is why there are some applications that can help you in this task, being ShowKeyPlus one of them.
The application works simply and offers an intuitive interface so that you can easily find the Windows product key 8 Y 10.
You don't even have to click anywhere. Just run the tool (that does not need installation) and you will get the data you were looking for. If you purchased a Windows OEM product key from an authorized retailer, will appear in the program as Llave OEM. If you upgraded to Windows for free, you will get a digital license instead of a key 25 characters, so you will only see the specific generic key according to the edition (Home, Pro, etc.)
Once the key is obtained, you can use it to activate your operating system permanently. No need to buy it again.
On the other hand, ShowKeyPlus is also useful for recovering the product key from a backup. If you have a back which includes a windows folder, the license for that installation (as well as the previously installed key, in case the installation was an update), can be retrieved by clicking Retrieve password.
It also has an option Check edition to verify the edition of Windows associated with your key. This way you will know which edition a certain key corresponds to before entering it into your system.
