Read out serial number under Windows 10
The serial number is stored in the Windows 10 system, but it is not easy to read. With a tool, however, it works very easily:
- Download the free Windows Product Key Viewer and open the ZIP file.
- Within the ZIP file you will now find a RAR file with the name "pkeyuibx.exe". Open it with a double click.
- Then the tool starts. The serial number is displayed directly and can be easily copied.
