This is is for those of you not familiar with the Windows 8 Key that is stored in the bios. It is handy for when you have a hard drive crash or any other issue that prevents you from getting the key from windows.

It is actually stored in the UEFI BIOS. I have asked Fred if he would add this to UVK and he is looking into it but for now you can use WOLF. There are prolly others but WOLF is the one I use. It's quick, easy and does the trick :)

You go to software, BIOS and click Hide/Show to get the key.

You can get WOLF Here:
