Then again, maybe some of you could figure out how to find it in the registry. Yes, it is in the registry - but Microsoft's security policies will not allow Gateway or other compaines to give out the information on how to find it. However, 2002 and up - you are up the creek, in a wire canoe, no boat plug, and no paddle: you must purchase a new copy of Microsoft Works Suite - over and out. Microsoft has supplied the Microsoft Works Suite Product Key (on the original CD box or package) to Gateway (and other computer manufacturers) through 2001 - and can be supplied from the computer manufacturer - NOT Microsoft. Okay everyone - a major breakthrough in our pursuit of knowledge!ĪCCORDING TO GATEWAY from an online live chat session with technical support: (Maybe we should put a reward on this one.) Y'all are generally too knowledgeable not to have an answer. How about it? Anybody have a clue? Forget about contacting Microsoft - according to some of those on the Google links. So it seems to me this would be of interest to a lot of folks. Either way, we really should have a way to retrieve the Works Product Key, should we lose it. are also a part of Works & I am not really sure which of these might continue to run without the product key entered.
If you lose your original Works CD box with the product key lable on it, and then you decide to re-install your operating software, you will be up the creek when you try to activate Microsoft Works - since, for example, Microsoft Word is a part of Works and Word will only open 49 times without registration. I think this is an important issue for the following reason: The Google links only produced other folks who are trying to find their product key also.
