Can I get Windows 11 to reveal the product key?

The OEM/Brand name computers have the necessary information built into the motherboard, don't include the Product Key on a sticker anymore. I haven't worked with the Retail version on a Custom/Self-built Win11 computer.

Microsoft stopped embedding serial numbers since end of Windows XP ( .. Yes, Windows XP has hidden serial number inside the disc content, we can retrieve it using command prompt) .. You may again fully scratch carefullt the entire label, since the product key is printed very small, else;

Use a previous product key: If you had previously activated Windows on the same computer, you might be able to use that product key again.

Contact the manufacturer or retailer: If your computer came with Windows pre-installed, you can contact the manufacturer or retailer and ask if they can provide you with a product key.

Look into your registry:
Open regedit, navigate to
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM)\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform"
open
"BackupProductKeyDefault" in the right pane
or
try Belarc adviser (free for personal use); you need to create an account to download (if I remember correctly), install and run it
It should reveal all your product keys.
or try
Magical Jelly Bean .
