Warband CD-Key?

GalaKnight · 04-03-2010, 09:19 PM

Where can I find my Warband CD-Key? I'm trying to register my copy, someone said it was in a file in the install folder but I don't see it.

Go into steam, then games, then right click warband and there should be a tab that says "view cd key".

That doesn't work... there is no show CD-Key option.

It's supposed to go into your registry automatically when you install it. Open regedit (be careful, don't delete or overwrite anything in there), and from the top do a Find command, then search for mountandblade, or warband. If you find the warband serial key you can use it manually to activate.

If the key doesn't exist there, you may have a faulty install. You can try doing a complete wipe and reinstalling (possibly in admin mode with AVG off if either of those things are applicable to you), or you can go through steam or paradox support for help. One of the mods said paradox support would be faster.

Good luck

Edit: But ya, for whatever reason steam made it so you can't get the key the regular way. I'm guessing so you can't just go use it to download off the taleworlds site and skip using Steam.

I'm trying to register it on my TaleWorlds account.

Found the old thread.

Don't use that torrent though, it's old. Proper taleworlds download should be working by now anyway.
