Unlike Windows 7 PCs, computers pre-installed with an edition of Windows 8 and Windows 10 don’t have a Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) sticker with their original product key printed on it. This is because, the product key is embedded in the PC’s UEFI firmware and can’t be seen just by accessing the UEFI.
While using a Windows 10 PC, you don’t need to view or backup your Windows 10 product key as we can clean install or reinstall the same edition of Windows 10 on the same PC and activate the copy of Windows 10 without having to enter the product key.
