    Not a thread hijack but how does one know if the key being used is MSDN retail key or usual retail key? Just saw someone talking about Edition ID or something.

    Windows 8.1 Pro, VAMT 2.0. So that would be like, inaccurate. My info looks the same as post #44.

    Yeah, the Office is easy to spot but didn't quite get the Edition ID part. Please enlighten me on this,
    X18-15501 and X18-15500 are the MSDN keys, right? And the one starting with rev-xx are true Retail keys? My Windows Media Center promotional key also returns with rev-#. :)

    Can you see the Product Keys on the left? If yes, right click on it and the Add product keys...

    EDIT:
    Or if you want the status and stuff like mine, Discover product is for you then. Type your PC's IP address and see the magic!
