Where to find Microsoft Office Key
I purchased Microsoft Office along with my laptop, but am unable to find the product key. I have searched the box several times and there is no paperwork or anything related to Microsoft Office at all. Would I have received the product key by email? I've looked through all the emails sent to me concerning my purchase with Dell and there is no such information.

Key is either registered with your microsoft account or on a MPI card. A Microsoft Product Identifier (MPI) card shipped with the Office 2010 and 2013.

Newer versions recently now don't have that.

The Office product key shown on the Microsoft account, Services & subscriptions page will always be different than the product key that's shown on a product key card or email receipt. They are two different types of keys, even though they use the same format.
