Can anyone make out these last 5 digits?  39BGJ was my first guess, no go. "We've done four already, but now we're steady..." | ||

If this is a DVD, there is software IIRC that will extract the key from the disc. | |||

Original HDD is dead, replaced with an SSD. No reinstall disks, I am reinstalling from an ISO I burned. "We've done four already, but now we're steady..." | |||

No, only can be extracted from the registry once installed and already entered, good if you forget or lose the key. | |||

39BCJ or 3PBCJ ? I just had to do this myself with a customer machine and a bad sticker. Try typing the guesses on M$‘s website, on the ISO validation/download page. RB Cancer fighter (Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma) since 2009, now fighting Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. | |||

You can just write down all the possibilities and just try them all until it works, there doesn't seem to be that many...? | |||

Yeah I have a list of possibilities I have tried and no luck. I think trying to pin down the first 4 is the key here. The last one is the hardest to see. I think the 2nd letter is a P. The 4th letter could be a C too maybe. These are the possibilities BCDFGHJKMPQRTVXY 23456789 Here's a better image: https://i.imgur.com/TnYbpGQ.jpg "We've done four already, but now we're steady..." | |||

And this folks, is why I always write the number on the disc, with a Sharpie, once the software is successfully installed.  Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

3PBC7 at least got me to the automated phone system activation part. I will see where this goes  "We've done four already, but now we're steady..." | |||

If you ever registered the machine or OS then it’s quite possible the key is located in your Microsoft account. I know this because I’ve logged on and see my windows 10 and office keys. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||
