Troubleshooting

If you don't see Product key/Install for your product in Order history, here are a few things to try:

Microsoft software download page

  • If you only see Install, select it to start your download and installation. The app or game might not have a product key.

  • If you don't see Install, select the product name. It will take you to the product page. If the button that was previously labeled Buy is now Install, select it to automatically download and install your app or game.

  • If you bought boxed software that we shipped to you, Order history can't store the product key until you install the software for the first time. Follow the installation instructions that came with the boxed software.

  • Some apps or games won't store their product key in Order history. If your product key is on a card or the back of the box, keep it somewhere safe.
