How do I find my windows 11 product key?

Checking the Windows 11 product key through the registry is also a common method, but you have to pay a little attention and be careful when operating. You can find the stored product key through the registry, but this method may not work in all cases, especially if your system is activated with a digital license.

The steps are roughly as follows:

1. Press Windows + R, type regedit, and then press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
2. Go to this path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform
3. Look for BackupProductKeyDefault in the right window, where your product key may be displayed.

However, sometimes the key found through the registry is not the key that is actually used to activate the system, especially if you are using a volume license or a digital license. So this method is a bit unreliable, but it can come in handy occasionally. If you are looking for a way to find Windows 11 product key, this is a method to try, but if you can't find it, don't worry, try another way!

The method of checking the product key through BIOS is relatively simple, but it depends on luck. Usually the product key is hidden in a system information or security page in the BIOS. You may need to flip through a few pages and look for options like "System Information" or "Security". Some computers will directly display the product key, but not all computers do so. If your computer supports it, this method is really convenient and you can find Windows 11 key without any Windows product key finder tools.

However, I have tried it several times myself, and sometimes I still can't find it after flipping through it, so it is not a 100% reliable method, but if you can find it, it saves a lot of trouble!

This method is actually quite simple. Just use PowerShell to check Windows 11 product key. I have tried it several times and it can be found. However, sometimes it may not be displayed, especially if your system is activated with a digital license (the kind that is bound to a Microsoft account), it will not show you the actual key.

Steps:

1. Press Windows + X, then select Windows PowerShell.
2. Enter this command:
   (Get-WmiObject -query 'select * from SoftwareLicensingService').OA3xOriginalProductKey
   Press Enter, and then if the product key is stored in the system, it will be displayed.

Disadvantages:

If your Windows is digitally activated, this method may not work and the key cannot be found, you meybe need a Windows 11 product key finder.
Sometimes administrator privileges are required, and you have to manually open PowerShell as an administrator.

Make sure you back up your Windows 11 product key before reinstalling your system, as it's difficult to retrieve it once you've lost it.If you're using a digital license, you won't have a physical product key. Instead, you can activate Windows 11 by signing in with your Microsoft account.

In fact, finding Windows 11 product key from the BIOS is also a good method, but it depends on your computer model. Some systems will display the key directly in the BIOS, but not all support it. I have tried it several times myself, it is quite simple, but sometimes I can't find it after searching for a long time.

The steps are roughly as follows:

1. Restart the computer: Press F2 or Delete key at the beginning (the specific key depends on your computer model, some are F10 or Esc).
2. Enter the BIOS interface: At this time you will see the BIOS interface.
3. View product information: Usually the product key will be on a page about system or security, and you may need to flip through different options.
4. Exit BIOS: After finding the key, write it down, and then exit BIOS (usually press F10 to save and exit).

However, it is not always possible to see it, and some computers do not display the key at all. So, if you can't find it, don't be too disappointed, try another method.
