    Microsoft Office 2007 lost cd key


    by the title yes I lost my cd key. After i reformatted i lost the installation files.

    I just want thing on my pc. I payed 89 with tax for this thing a few years back and now this disk is pretty much trash.

    and before i get ten million responses saying I'm trying to bootleg the thing here's a video

    If it's a fresh install, you could cross your fingers and try recovery software.

    Or if you bought it through an affiliated website like Microsoft Office Discount for Students - It's Not Cheating then maybe you could prove your purchase with them (if they keep records of course).

    You really don't have the original packaging or a email key if you purchased the downloadable Office Ultimate release?

    Edit: Ah I just watched the vid..... good luck!

    Contact MS Support and just be honest with them and tell them what happened...

    They are alot nicer than you think and may end up activating it for you...it is worth a shot...what do you have to lose?

    Good morning and welcome to windows 7 support forum.
    Since you no longer have a valid key if you have registerd the software and provided you have the original installation disk you need not worry.
    Your Cd key is embedded in the installation disk.
    Call Microsft support and you will be asked some questions and a new key will be issued to you for gratis or possibly a small fee.
    Regards,
    Adrian
