I need to find my Windows 10 product key in case I can't recover if my recovery partition or on-board drive fails.  I have recently reset the unit using the recovery partition but have had issues in the past where this has not been possible and don't want to have to buy Windows 10 again to do the reinstall.  Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi. Thank you for the link. It worked once I'd created the "tenforums" account.

 

One more question though, if I may?  I don't know if you will know the answer, but one can but ask,  The HP I have is very slow with Windows 10 so I am hoping to try an install of Android on it.  Having paid for the Windows licence with the laptop, back a few  years now, can I use the licence key on another laptop I have that doesn't have a modern OS?  Would it be possible to use it on another manufacturer's laptop if I haven't got a HP to install it on?  Again, thank you in advance of any snswer you can give.
