If you have to reinstall Windows, you don't need to have or know the product key.

 

Run the command prompt as administrator.

 

To display the notebook's product key, type the following command and press the Enter key.

  • wmic path softwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey

I was also able to run the command prompt without running as administrator and it gave me the product key.

Sounds like a big NO, you need to use cmd command "Run As Administrator"  that means you have to log in.
