Can't remember where I downloaded Win8 from

Can anyone help?

I downloaded and bought Windows 8 when it first came available and got it discounted due to having Windows 7 - or at least got it for something really cheap like £20-30 ... trouble is I can't remember where I got it as I need the serial key.

Thanks for any help!

The only way you would have been able to purchase it as a download was directly from MS by using the upgrade advisor, so you should have gotten an e-mail with the serial number and a link to re-download it if needed.

Direct link to download http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=317630

Just put in your key when needed.
You cant install 8.1 with an 8 key which is annoying so you need to install 8 then upgrade from store.

why not just log into the Microsoft account you should have?

The link is also in the email, which you should have saved.
