Want to know my product key for Dell Laptop
Hii
This is Atharv. I had bought a Dell Laptop which was preinstalled with windows 8. Recently I have to change my HDD, so, I sent it to a repair store. The man in the store installed a pirated windows 10 on the new hard drive and activated using a pirated product key. Now, I want to know my genuine Product Key so that I can install a genuine windows. Please help me in this matter.

(Get-WmiObject -query ‘select * from SoftwareLicensingService’).OA3xOriginalProductKey
Works for my Windows 10 machine. Don't know if it works for Windows 8. - This support article may help you: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/find-your-windows-product-key-aaa2bf69-7b2b-9f13-f581-a806abf0a886.
- But I want to reset the pirated activation key with my genuine one. How can I do it?
