How To Get Your Windows 10 Product Or OEM License Key

Find out or retrieve your Windows 10 Retail or OEM license key or product activation details easily and without costing a penny (or cent)
Open a command prompt with Admin rights (right click)
type the following (or copy and paste)
wmic path softwarelicensingservice get oA3xOriginalProductKey
and press enter
You can also use Powershell with this code
(Get-WmiObject -query 'select * from SoftwareLicensingService').OA3xOriginalProductKey
This doesn't always work depending on the installation type so you can also try this alternative method using a vbs or visual basic script.
Now this is the part where i planned to copy paste the script information but sadly the KZread Studio won't allow angled brackets to be written in the text box, so i will add the script to the pinned section in the technical question and answers section in our discord chat server. The script is visible on the screen but that really would suck to type that all in!

    Hey Mike, I have an OEM Windows 10 on my PC. I installed the "ShowKeyPlus" software, and it does not give me my OEM key, but there is an INSTALLED KEY option that gives me a 25-digit key that includes my partial product ID that I get from the slmgr -dli command. That 25-digit INSTALLED KEY is different from the 25-digit key that I get from the visual basic script from this video. Which of the two is my license key? Thanks for your helpful vids!

    The problem I'm having is I have two PCs, both were upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7.. I've since sold one of the PCs but have no way of knowing which Product Key sticker on the disks is for which PC (my one or the one I sold). The productkey.vbs method shows me a Product Key, but it doesn't match either of the keys on the official Windows 7 stickers.

I have my license key and when I used that script it shows a completely different key? also looking through people's messages sent to you, one guy says he used Aida64 to which I have and even that shows another different key "not even the same as the one using this vbs script"?? what is going on mate.
