Need help to find and locate Windows Server 2008 R2 volume license keys from the system registry, to document what keys are with which server. I have tried Magic Jelly Bean and Produkey, but both will not display "volume license keys", but instead either display nothing, or all BBBB-BBBBB...'s

If anyone knows of a way to retrieve the product key, or through a known working 3rd party utility it would be life saver.

Thanks

I'm fairly certain that with Server 2008 the original Volume License Key isn't actually stored in the registry. To retrieve them you'll need the original purchasing account for the Microsoft Volume Licensing Service Center.

  • Rumour has it that Microsoft don't care *that much* about which of your keys you use, as long as you have enough licenses to cover all your installations, and you have documented that you have a license for each install. – Andrew Nov 04 '14 at 03:51
