Original title: Product Key

I downloaded Windows 8.1 (free) from the Microsoft web site. My understanding was that in doing so, a new product key would be generated. I do not know where/how to find the new product key. Can someone help me out with this? Was I mistaken and do I use the product key I have for Windows 8?

    Hi,

    What do you mean when you say "No it doesn't work this way."

    Are you also facing the same issue?

    Do you have any suggestions regarding the same issue?
