Office key in W8?

[Aelin]

I seek the key of Windows 8 under the computer of course, and... nothing  I know, Vista and bad habits probably.
But i want use Office, and i can't find the key of my product. I need really to use a little software to find in my computer? If it's case, Microsoft is really a stupid thing.

Well, here is where it gets complicated.  Did you purchase Office 2013 with Vista?

[Aelin]

No; i have Vista since 2008... nothing after.
It's a jump into the unknow for me.

What version of Office did you have?   You'll see where I'm going with this in a moment.

If you have the hard copy of what you were using before (On disc) you can load it in and the key code should be on the Disc Cover.

Did your new computer come with any CD's.  Typically they don't nowadays.

Yes, to uninstall i did like in video. But W Store replace on computer the same app today.
And i removed Wild Tangent, and it replace too a part on computer today too. 

And for your other link, i don't find how stop the store in programs.
I wan't not apps to the store. Any, and it's this the problem.

I know it's perhaps stupid, but i don't like idea to have Windows Store in my cmputer when i want not, mainly with things that i want not.

Some things you can't take off....just got to face it....windows won't let you take anything off that is by them.

As for Wild Tangent.  Go to your control panel, uninstall anything that has to do with GAMES....there were three of them on my computer.  One from Yahoo, one from some dumb app and one from MS.  Got rid of them all and no apps or programs coming back on.

For this crap thing, i went in AppData, Programs and Programs (x86); and perhap in other place of computer. And i used "search" function to check.
Normally, all is go out this evening a new time for WT.
I have passed Malwarebytes too for the first time in this computer.
Exit Wt of my computer was my first real action in computer to remove something; because i remembered when we had talked of this, these last months.  And remembered problems of my aunt with too.

But really, i don't like WStore.
