this is my first my visit to the chat and have been guided by this thread for the product key recovering program, it is amazing tool and I was looking long time for it,

thank you

Works great but....
 

The product worked great EXCEPT that my computer is a DELL and it does NOT return the actual product key. So, after installation, when you go online to "Activate" with Microsoft, it says you have an invalid product key.

I have also found 3 other products and they all return the same key (the one that Dell enters into the registry), so I guess I am out of luck?

OK, maybe I am not completely out of luck. Further web surfing has revealed that since it successfully installed, but does not want to activate, it is possible that I only need to call Microsoft and get a new activation ID?

You should be able to view your current key in the registry under the path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\wpaevents

Only items there are:

(Default) REG_SZ (value not set)
OOBETimer REG_BINARY hexadecimal values

GREAT TOOL !

Evasive Office 2003 key!
 

I have the same problem. I have downloaded every key search program I can find. None work. I have searched the Registry, find the proper place to read my new keys but this does not work.
I am purchasing the $39.95 SPOTMAU program for this very purpose.
Have I made the wrong purchase?:confused:

wooow its reallly gud one :)

Trojan ?
 

Nice tool, but why does it query files that are not needed like

18:30:58 ProduKey.exe:18680 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Program Files\Trillian\events.dll SUCCESS Attributes: A

Is this tool installing malware onto my machine ?
