Anytime Upgrade Product Key by Email
I have a new computer that came with Vista Home Premium. I want to upgrade to
Ultimate. I ran the Upgrade application and purchased an Ultimate upgrade. It
says that I need to wait 2-3 weeks for the upgrade disk and product key. I
already have a Windows Anytime Upgrade DVD from another computer. How can I
get the product key emailed to me so that I don't have to wait 2-3 weeks for
a disk that I already have?

Re: Anytime Upgrade Product Key by Email
Since you have 30 days before you absolutely must enter
the product key and activate, go ahead and upgrade to
Vista Ultimate and don't enter any product key. Once you
get the Vista Ultimate product key, you can then enter it
and activate.

Re: Anytime Upgrade Product Key by Email
Have you checked you digital locker?
From Microsoft...
"A personal digital locker is created for you when you purchase a Windows
Vista upgrade. Your digital locker stores your product keys and purchase
information which, when used together, allow you to reinstall your upgrade
if necessary. A copy of your upgrade is also stored in your digital locker.

To access your upgrade in your digital locker for recovery:

Click Start, and then click Control Panel. Double-click the digital locker
icon. Alternatively, you can go directly to the Digital Locker website.

(6th time I have pasted this exact text into a reply to someone)
