Here's the thing - I have a Windows 7 Ultimate DVD, genuine, kosher, real BUT it has become separated from the case it came in SO I no longer have the key. Someone suggested installing without using the key and then using something like JellyBean Key Finder to extract the key, but I'm pretty dubious about this as I don't think the installation will complete without the key being entered at the...

The current machine has had Windows 7 installed from the get-go. I've done all the updates and, since I'm only going to have it for a few more days, I installed Windows 10 just to see how that system works. . I could still...
