Windows key

Caffeinated
Caffeinated ✭
in PowerSpec

Good morning,

Recently bought a Powerspec during the sale. My amateur self decided to try Linux without writing down the windows key. I cannot find the key on the machine itself or any of the paperwork it came with. Is it possible to get this key so I can fix my amateur partition job? Please advise. Thanks!

    It's flashed into the firmware of the board and should update automatically. You're dual booting?

    From Powershell try: Get-CIMInstance Softwarelicensingservice | Select-Object OA3xOriginalProductKey

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
