i recently upgraded the motherboard and I don’t have the product key for my original Windows 11 installation. Is there a way to get it?

Hopefully, you bought the motherboard part number with the Windows product key encrypted in the BIOS.

 

Motherboards with Windows product keys have a part number that ends in -601.

 

If you bought a motherboard with a product key that ends in -001, there is no product key and you will have to buy a full version of Windows.
