But what if you lost or misplaced your product key? Or what if you want to download Office 2010 from an online store or a product key card? In this article, we will show you how to find and download your Microsoft Office 2010 serial number in different ways.
Find your product key for Office 2010
The way you can find your product key depends on how you got Office 2010. Here are some common scenarios and how to locate your product key for each one:
- I downloaded Office from an online store: If you bought Office 2010 from an online store such as Microsoft Store, Amazon, or eBay, you should have received an email confirmation with your product key. Check your email inbox or spam folder for the email and look for the product key. If you can't find the email, you can also sign in to your account on the online store and check your order history or digital downloads section.
- Office came in a box (with or without a DVD): If you bought Office 2010 in a physical box, you should find a product key card inside the box. The card may be attached to the back of the DVD case or inside the manual. The product key card has a scratch-off label that reveals the product key when you scratch it.
- Office came on a product key card with a PIN: If you bought Office 2010 on a product key card that has a PIN instead of a product key, you need to redeem the PIN online to get your product key. To do this, go to office.com/getkey and enter your PIN. Then sign in with your Microsoft account or create one if you don't have one. You will see your product key on the screen and also receive it by email.
- Office came pre-installed on my computer: If Office 2010 came pre-installed on your computer when you bought it, you may have a trial version or a full version. If you have a trial version, you need to buy a product key to activate it. You can do this by clicking the Activate button in any Office application or by going to office.com/buy. If you have a full version, you should have received a product key card with your computer or a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) sticker on your computer. The product key card or the COA sticker has the product key printed on it.
- I lost my product key: If you lost or damaged your product key, you may be able to get a replacement from Microsoft or the retailer where you bought Office 2010. To do this, you need to have proof of purchase such as an order confirmation email, a receipt, or an invoice. You can contact Microsoft support at support.microsoft.com/contactus or the retailer's customer service for assistance.
