Posted by on Feb 10, 2010 | 5 Comments

If you have ever misplaced a product key for a piece of software that you have legally paid for, than WinKeyFinder may be of assistance to you.  The software is a small download and once extracted is easy to use. Just run the WinKeyFinder executable file and up pops your product key. It is that simple. On their web site it states that:

Win keyfinder retrieves your windows Xp, win 2000, windows me, 98, 2003 and .NET Product keys from the registry and display it for you.


Usually the keys are encoded and stored in the registry it decodes it and also allows You to change Windows XP, 2003, and .Net Product Keys just press of a button. It is simple and easy to use.

Windows 7 and Vista users, rejoice, it works with these Windows versions as well.

Comments welcome.

Download WinKeyFinder from here.

    Write it in the booklet which came with the software. then make sure you find the disk get a plain paper disc sleeve. Write the number on said sleeve. Get a large plastic zip lock bag. Put all of these discs in their correct sleeves in side any manuals etc. put that in an envelope that pertains to that computer and all other paperwork that goes with that said computer ( don’t combine other computers paperwork with the one at hand, your doing yourself a disservice. Put this in a drawer that also includes blank discs and other things computer related. Any questions?
