My c drive is going bad and I had installed EW on it. I had Front Page and
bought the EW upgrade via a download -- forgot where from.

I've torn my office apart looking for the CD and product key info and can't
find it so I can reinstall EW on my NEW 500 gig drive. No go. I want to
boot to my old hard drive and retrieve the product key so I can install the
trial version, go to add/remove, and update it.

Does anyone know how I can retrieve my PK off my old c drive?

thanks.

Use Belarc Advisor from http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

That did it! I found the key and was able to restore my program.

Thanks a bunch.

Keep a copy of the Belarc print out. It is always good to have system
configuration information.

I restored my pc by installing new windows. My C Drive still have files in Windows.old directory. How can I retrieve product key for EW from there.

Thanks,

Which version of Expression Web?

For EW1 or 2, boot from the old drive and run
Belarc Advisor (http://belarc.com) to retrieve
the key (and a lot more information).

For EW3 and 4, find the documention (email?) that
has your key on it.

If neither of these methods work or can be used
then your only recourse is to open a support case
with Microsoft (fee may be payable), or buy EW
again.
