How to find your Office key from system?

 

In most cases we use loose/forget activation keys after installing Microsoft office in system.

Then we can't recover activation key from our key even though its in our system.

I was facing same problem when I was looking for my previous activation key to re-activate Microsoft Office.  I found below method working 100% with open code (no spam) or hidden trick.

You can apply below steps to get you lost Office Activation key.

Enter below code in any text editor (like Notepad) and save file with extension d4techs.vbs (visual basic scripting file).

d4techs.vbs file content:

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

MsgBox ConvertToKey(WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\DigitalProductId"))

Function ConvertToKey(Key)

Const KeyOffset = 52

i = 28

Chars = "BCDFGHJKMPQRTVWXY2346789"

Do

Cur = 0

x = 14

Do

Cur = Cur * 256

Cur = Key(x + KeyOffset) + Cur

Key(x + KeyOffset) = (Cur \ 24) And 255

Cur = Cur Mod 24

x = x -1

Loop While x >= 0

i = i -1

KeyOutput = Mid(Chars, Cur + 1, 1) & KeyOutput

If (((29 - i) Mod 6) = 0) And (i <> -1) Then

i = i -1

KeyOutput = "-" & KeyOutput

End If

Loop While i >= 0

ConvertToKey = KeyOutput

End Function
