How do I find a McAfee product key?Updated a month ago

Find your McAfee product key in the confirmation email, retail packaging, or McAfee account under "My Account." It may also be on a product key card included with your purchase.

How do I find a McAfee product key?

To find your McAfee product key, you can try the following methods:

1. Check the Product Packaging (Retail Box)

  • If you purchased a physical copy of McAfee, the product key should be printed on a card or label inside the packaging.

2. Check Your Email (Online Purchase)

  • If you bought McAfee online, the McAfee product key is often included in the confirmation email or receipt you received after your purchase. Look for an email from McAfee or the retailer where you made the purchase.

3. Log in to Your McAfee Account

  • Go to the McAfee website mcafee.com/activate and sign in to your account.

  • Under My Account, check for any product registration details or purchase history that may include the product key.

4. Check the McAfee Software Installed on Your Device

  • If you’ve already installed McAfee, you may be able to retrieve your product key from within the software itself:

    • Open the McAfee software.

    • Go to About or Subscription in the settings or help menu.

    • Some versions of McAfee display the product key or activation details there.

5. Contact McAfee Support

  • If you cannot find your McAfee product key through the above methods, you can reach out to McAfee customer support for assistance. They may help you retrieve your key based on your account details or purchase history.
