Winkey

Losing the product key for Windows OS is a bummer. Due to how tedious or sometimes impossible it is to pin-point the product key within the OS, third-party applications that bring up that exact information started to pop up. Winkey is one of those examples, a lightweight tool that does nothing else other than identify your operating system, product ID, and the product key.

First, Winkey comes in a portable package. Installing it is not a possibility. If you have friends or relatives that are in the same situation as you and need to get a hold of their product key, you can easily move the archive on a disk or flash drive and offer them a helping hand.

Winkey's UI falls in the smaller side category, with just three fields. With just three fields that. The first one reveals the operating system. If you are running Windows 10 Pro, Home, Enterprise, or any other edition, you'll find it there. The second field brings up the Product ID, which is not of high importance, as it's only useful when it comes to technical support.

The third and final field is where you should focus your attention. The Product Key will be displayed there. This key is responsible for your Windows activation. In case you've lost or erased the key from your initial storage, this tool can help you reclaim it.

Upon testing Winkey, we've noticed that on a certain machine, the product key was displayed as a string of capital Bs. The issue persisted, even after re-launching the application. This was the only encountered issue so far, but hopefully, it will be fixed soon, as the tool is quite fresh.

Winkey can possibly spare you the purchase of another Windows license in case you've misplaced or lost the existing product key. The app removes all effort from tracking down the product key, ensuring you have a swift and stress-free recovery.
