yakkoj, 
Finding my Windows product key used to be a simple matter of viewing COA sticker that has more elaborate protection than a country's money.
Now I had to DDG "windows 11 product key finder". Fortunately, there's a built-in command that gives me it.
But then there's a registry key with it, and that product key is DIFFERENT
To quote Henery chicken hawk doing Foghorn impression: One of these things, I say ONE of these things, has GOT to be my product key!
