Editors’ Review
Microsoft Office is a large and expensive software package. If you buy it, it's wise to save your Product ID and CD Key codes, preferably in a secure yet accessible place. The same goes for SQL Server and Exchange Server, and throw Windows in while you're at it. Failure to do so can result in elevated stress levels, should you need to repair or reinstall the software. If you didn't jump through all the hoops in the proper order, you're probably going to have to telephone Microsoft, and we know how you feel about that.
ProduKey is easy to use and works with a wide range of Microsoft products. It can retrieve the keys for Windows, Office, Exchange Server, and SQL Server quickly. It is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows, ranging from Windows 2000 to Windows 8.
One of the best things about ProduKey is that it does not require installation. You can start using it right from any folder, making it very convenient for those who need a portable solution. It can also extract keys from other Windows installations through command-line options, which is extremely useful for troubleshooting problems on other PCs.
The interface of ProduKey is straightforward. You can either run it directly from the folder where you extracted it or install it like any other software. It displays all your software keys in one window, which makes it easy to manage and export this information whenever necessary.
ProduKey is freeware, so you can freely distribute it as long as you don't sell it or include it as part of a commercial product. This makes it an excellent option for both individual users and IT professionals.
That's why we think it's probably not a bad idea to download and run NirSoft's ProduKey. This compact freeware identifies and displays the Product ID and CD Key for Microsoft Office, Windows, SQL Server, and Exchange Server. If you've lost the codes you need to reinstall these large bundles, ProduKey can help you recover them. It's an extremely simple tool, and completely portable as well. We simply clicked the program's icon, and it immediately opened with the Product ID and Product Key codes displayed for Windows 7, Internet Explorer, and Office. ProduKey also displayed the Installation Folder, Service Pack, and other extracted data. We could choose what headers we wanted the program to display from the Options menu, as well as grid lines, time display, and other settings. We could save, search, and copy data and call up properties pages from the toolbar, which also contained a Select Source feature for choosing how the program loads product codes. A Web-based Help file and documentation sheet contained lots of useful information such as version histories and known issues. It also does a good job of explaining how to use this admittedly simple tool, mostly in the form of Command-Line Options for power users.
Bottom Line
ProduKey is a great little tool to have on hand, especially if you shelled out big for some hefty MS wares. Even if you don't download it, don't you feel better just knowing it exists?
