First of all, you should know about what product keys are and why they're so important, especially in Windows Server. Product keys are generally a unique alphanumeric code of a certain length that is required by many software during the process of installation. They serve the purpose of ensuring that the user has legally purchased and owned the copy of the program, in our case Windows Server. 

Without a product key for an operating system like Windows Server, it is hard to utilize the full features to its core. Without a product key, some programs will not function properly and restrict you from using them entirely. Sometimes finding your product key might be hard for Windows Server users. This is why here we've presented a complete guide to finding the Windows Server 2019 product key with total ease. Let us first look at some quick ways to find Windows server product keys.

Quick Ways To Find Windows Server 2019 Product Key

Sometimes, the issue is not that big of a deal than we make it. Before digging deep into our methods, there are some quick tips for you that you can follow to find the product key. Here are a few of the quick tips:

1. Find product key on Windows Server 2019 Product box: Generally, it depends on how you got your copy of Windows Server 2019, and you’ll still need a 25 character product key to activate it. If you've purchased a physical copy of Windows Server 2019, the product key should be present on a label or a card inside the box. It should be included with that. 

2. Check in your Windows account: If you've purchased Windows Server 2019 online, then your product key might be in the confirmation email you might have received after successful completion of the purchase. It may also be possible that your product key is already linked to your Microsoft Account. To check that, you can go to the settings option and select Update and Security. There on the left, select the option called Activation. 

3. Call Windows Support Team: If the above-mentioned options aren't working for you, it might be the right time to talk and consult with the officials. Call the Windows Server support team with your order id. This will help you gain access to your product id if you've legally purchased your digital copy of Windows Server 2019. 

Even after performing all those actions that we've discussed, if you are still unable to find your product key for Windows Server 2019, this is the time to take matters into your own hands.
