Default Finding Product Key for XP in Registry

Hi there,

I have two XP Home licenses and am not sure which one is installed on a
system. How can I find the Product Key on my system? I'm looking for the
code that is entered when you install the software. I want to install the
other license on a separate system but don't know which one is currently
available.

Thanks in advance.

Lynn

Here are four utilities, all of which will display your product keys:
Belarc Advisor: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html
(It does a good job of providing a wealth of information.)
Also: http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml
and: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/product_cd_key_viewer.html
and RockXP: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4138.html which has additional
features

You're welcome.

I think you will find Belarc Advisor useful
for finding other information also.

Should be on a sticker on the PC's case. If you don't have that, retrieve
the key as described, and write it on the case.
