Subscribe by EmailEasily Retrieve your License Keys With LicenseCrawler

LicenseCrawler is a free, portable tool to retrieve license keys and serial numbers from the depths of your hard drive. And while most of us keep our precious offline installation documentation in a “safe place,” so that we can “always find it,” having all these CD-keys available in a file is very convenient. Oh sure, you could crawl your registry manually to extract all the info yourself, but why bother when LicenseCrawler is there to do it for you?
Do you know of any other similar tools? Let’s hear about them in the comments!

Belarc Advisor lists not only license keys but also information on the hardware, peripherals, other software, networks, and security updates for Windows. It seems to be a pretty complete snapshot of the system at any one time. Handy to have not only license keys but also serials and model numbers if necessary.
Wow… when I read this post, a little bit of drool came out of my mouth and landed on my shirt.
Will it actually trying to steal our license key info?
Wow! Does your tin-foil hat ever chafe? :-)
Of course not, it only dumps the result in a text file ;)
How are you sure of that? We dont know the underlying code.. dont know what it actually does behind the scene.. unless it’s open source software..
