    Hi, I am Van. I'll be glad to assist you today.

    I apologize, unfortunately, it is not possible to identify the product key with the product ID. Did you purchase the license key separately or was Windows came preinstalled when you purchased your PC?

    If you purchase the license key separately, was the license key linked to your Microsoft account?

    If the Windows came preinstalled, you can try retrieving the license key by using the methods below.

    Method 1.

    1. Open the command prompt and run it with administrator rights.
    2. Type or copy-paste the below command in the command prompt

    wmic path softwarelicensingservice get OA3xOriginalProductKey

    1. The license key that has 25 characters should appear.
    2. If the license key did not appear kindly proceed to method 2.

    Method 2.

    1. Go to the Microsoft store. Search for ShowKeyPlus in the MS store search bar
    2. Download and Install the app.
    3. Once done, run the app. The app will display the license key tied to the device.

    Thank You this was very helpful. I was able to find the product key using your steps. I purchased a preinstalled pc and it says go to settings to activate windows. I do and then get an error message saying that another device is using this product key. This is right out of the box. It comes with Windows 10 Home but there is no sticker or certificate anywhere in the box or on the laptop. I find it strange because every other laptop or computer I've ever purchased had the license affixed to it somehow. Any thoughts?
