Luckily, there’s a free utility called ShowKeyPlus that will find it for you. The problem is when you upgrade to Windows 10, especially from Windows 8, and you encounter glitches with product activation, you normally don’t have a product key.
One improvement introduced with the November Update is using your Retail or OEM product key to activate Windows 10. Regarding troubleshooting issues with product activation, this adds a bit of complication since PCs that qualify for the upgrade, in particular, retail licenses, will use a default product key used by Windows 10 Home and Pro. With build 10586, this is not as clearly defined since all November updates are automatically defined as from a retail channel. So if you upgraded from Windows 7 OEM or Retail, your free Windows 10 upgrade would inherit those channels. If you read our article on how to determine the architecture, edition, and channel of Windows currently installed, you’ll notice when you upgraded to build 10240, and Windows maintained the licensing status according to the channel.
