How to Check Microsoft Visio Product Key

You might need access to your software’s product key while moving a piece of software from one machine to another, performing reinstallations, dealing with a crash or virus, or updating.

Step 1: Check the Visio or Microsoft Office Suite Packaging

The most common way to check the product key of Microsoft Visio is to examine the Visio or Microsoft Office Suite packaging for the software, such as the clamshell case, paper CD-ROM holders, or pamphlets included in the clamshell, for example. The product key is included in at least one of these examples.
Step 2: Check the Product Key in the Microsoft Visio Application

Open the Microsoft Visio program on your computer. Then, go to the File tab of the Microsoft Visio ribbon, and select the Help option for the older version of the software or the Account option for the latest version of the software. After you click Help, look at the text directly above the words “Microsoft Software License Terms” on the screen. The words “Product ID” and their corresponding block of four sets of dashed numbers are directly above it. On the other hand, after you click Account, click the About Visio button, and you will find the product key just above the dialog box that appears.
