Lost CD Key

Lost CD Key

I bought & played this game when it first came out, but life interrupted. I got the itch to finally actually finish the game, so I dug up the Witcher box & installed last night...only to realize the manual (and thus CD key) are missing. I've torn this house up, but it's nowhere to be found... I figure it must have gotten lost when we moved last year. I think I remember registering on this site as part of my first game installation back when I first installed, if so, is my registration here tied into my CD key in any way and if so is there some way to retrieve it that way? If not... is there some way to quickly & easily just purchase a CD key online? I'm irritated that I'd have to do that, since I already own the game, but I want to play it and if I haven't found the manual yet, I'm never going to. (Until I move again. I bet I'll find it then. Sigh.)Thanks!

I can't say better, than this http://www.thewitcher.com/forum/index.php?topic=19615.0 eace:

Yeah, I looked there. That link tells you where to look to find the CD Key. I lost the manual, which is where the CD Key is in the original game box. So that link isn't for my problem, but thanks.So I'm asking, if I registered (with my CD Key) on this site 2 years ago, is my CD Key tied into this login account, and if so can I retrieve it. See, this login is tied to a registered game. I just don't know if I can somehow get my CD Key from that registration. If not, where can I purchase a CD Key.

That's gotta be annoying ... since you've registered the game, you can download the patches?I dunno ... is it possible to use someone else's CD key just to install the game?

 

[Shaz]

Yep, I have the game installed & all patches downloaded, but I can't install the patches because it asks for my CD Key. Today I made hubby help me dig through boxes in the attic. Again. Just in case. Still no manual, sadly.

I can't recognize your CD Key, sorry. Maybe someone from RED can...

OK, Shaz, two things for you - one great (I hope) and one not so great.First of all there is a way of getting a new CD key for free. All you need to do, is to send a photo of your game CD to support@thewitcher.com. Then, you will receive your new CD key. However - and now it's time for the second piece of news - you won't get that key before 5th January. Hope you can last till then
