Recovering software keys

I have an active thread here:

My question is to do with the same computer, but on a different topic so I felt it deserved it's own thread (the other topic is about repairing a HDD MBR, whereas the question on this post is about recovering software keys). I've seen in the past that posters were told to ask followup questions in a different thread if the question isn't directly related to the original problem, which is why I made this second thread. I hope I'm doing this correctly.


I have an unbootable but undamaged Windows Vista partition. I'd like to extract all software product keys from it in case I need to reinstall Windows. In the past I have used Belarc Advisor, but it only displays the software keys for programs installed on the instance of Windows I've booted to (I believe).

I have successfully used KeyFinder to recover the Windows Vista product key from the installation by using "Load Hive" to select the partition in question. However it only displays the Windows product key, not Microsoft Office and whatever else I had on there.

Does anyone know how I can display these keys?
