Keeping Track of Licence Keys

[angrycomputingteacher]

Hello,

 

Not sure if this is in the right place but I'm putting it here for now. I am looking for a piece of simple software or some kind of web app where I can put my Office, Windows and other software licence codes.

 

I think that NetSupport offers this but I don't need the other stuff in it.

 

I hope you guys can help.

OneNote, Excel or Google Docs/Sheets?

We just store them in Notepad, within their own folder. Whilst Excel Spreadsheets are nice, it's just a pain especially if you don't have MS Office installed on a machine you may be trying to activate/install. Providing the PC has local network access, we can retrieve all the keys from there in a particular share.

Keepass or for MS Keys you can use VAMT, part of the Windows ADK. Edited October 18, 2016 by free780

We have ours in OneNote too.

We use keypass to note the url and login of most of our keys (as they seem to be held on websites qute a lot these days). The few that aren't are in keypass directly

I'll have a look at Keypass today.

I paste the relevant ones from VLSC into an Outlook note. I've got notes with keys going back to the turn of the century!

 

As I can always login to my webmail I can just open the note and copy the key out.

 

If we know we are doing a big deployment job we stick the relevant key into a text document alongside the installer on either the NAS or the USB device being used. After deployment we just erase them.

We use KMS and log into VLSC when we need a MAK, which isn't often these days
