Lost my XP activation key...

[Kitchster_uk]

Well, not lost so much as 'missus put my activation mey in the bin' as it was nicely tucked in an envelope for safe keeping.

Now, how do I go about getting it re-issued - I've paid for the software and don't see that I should have to buy it again.

Cheers

Yep, if it's installed you'll be able to get the key like that. If not, then in theory you might be able to contact someone for a replacement key, but I wouldn't count on it. You don't expect to buy a DVD, lose it and get a replacement for free, no reason why you should expect the same here.

Total different situation - I have the CD, just not a scratty little sticker, stuck to some cellophane.
