Purchasing Microsoft licensing is an expensive investment and everyone knows how important it is to save your Product ID and CD key codes in a safe but accessible place. Unfortunately knowing you should do something doesn’t always mean actually getting around to doing it and if you find you have to repair or re-install your software, misplaced key codes will usually lead to a dreaded phone call to Microsoft.
Happily, with ProduKey from NirSoft, tracking down and keeping track of lost product keys is a snap. Simply run the program and it will retrieve product keys from the registry for Windows, Office, SQL server and Exchange server. Once the application finds the keys, it allows you to save them for future use. ProduKey will also display the Installation Folder, Service Pack, and other useful extracted data.
When downloading ProduKey, you will need to choose between applications for 32-bit or 64-bit operating systems. The program has a small footprint and has customizable headers that will allow you to save, search, and copy data as well as review properties pages from the tool bar. The program is very simple navigate but if you have questions or problems, there is a web-based help file and documentation sheet.
ProduKey is a great little tool to keep on hand to help protect your pricey Microsoft investments, with the added benefit of saving you from an afternoon on hold with Microsoft support.
