Hi, I have a question on the installment and activation of the Windows OS:


How can I get the product key of my Windows 8.1 (Single Language - 64 bit) OS CD which I bought and installed on my assembled computer in 2014? That is, the computer I assembled has not come pre-installed with a Windows OS. After having installed 8.1 manually, I upgraded it to Windows 10 (Single Language) later for free when it was allowed. Then, a computer technician had formatted it and installed an illegitimate Windows 10 Pro version on the very same computer without informing me about it. Now, the text "Activate Windows: Go to settings to activate Windows." appears on the bottom right corner of the screen. I would like this text to disappear and to install Windows 8.1 (Single Language - 64 bit) on my computer again, and to re-upgrade to Windows 10 (Single Language) if possible. Is it possible that my computer would remember the product key of the Windows 8.1 OS during the re-installation phase via the 8.1 .iso file I obtain from the official Windows link (Windows 8.1 Disk Görüntüsünü (ISO Dosyası) İndir) without the CD I'd bought? If not, what shall I do to re-obtain this product key? I have lost the 8.1 CD and the package thereof FYI.


Thank you very much in advance.


Best regards,

Hizir
