问题:

I want to remove my license key in visual studio 2017. how can i do it? I am trying to change the product key but I cant.

回答1:

Well I found two possible solutions for Visual Studio 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019.

1. Setting new product key with StorePID.exe (MS Docs).

  1. navigate to VS 2017/2019 installation directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE)
  2. start cmd as admin
  3. execute StorePID.exe <your_new_product_key> <MPC>
  4. maybe a restart

Possible Microsoft Product Codes (MPC) are:

  • 06177 Visual Studio Professional 2013
  • 06191 Visual Studio Premium 2013
  • 06181 Visual Studio Ultimate 2013
  • 07062 Visual Studio Professional 2015
  • 07060 Visual Studio Enterprise 2015
  • 08860 Visual Studio Enterprise 2017
  • 08862 Visual Studio Professional 2017
  • 08866 Visual Studio Test Professional 2017
  • 09260 Visual Studio Enterprise 2019
  • 09262 Visual Studio Professional 2019

2. Removing product key first and set new one. (VS 2015/2017/2019)

  1. open register editor
  2. navigate to
    • VS 2015: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Licenses\4D8CFBCB-2F6A-4AD2-BABF-10E28F6F2C8F and delete it
    • VS 2017: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Licenses\5C505A59-E312-4B89-9508-E162F8150517 and delete it
    • VS 2019: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Licenses\41717607-F34E-432C-A138-A3CFD7E25CDA and delete it
  3. exeute a repair installation of VS 2017/2019
  4. enter your new product key under Help > Register Product

It's not the best way to solve it, but faster than deinstall and install the complete IDE.


Update (2020-01-09)

  • added MPCs for Visual Studio 2013, 2015 and 2019;
  • extended registry solution for VS 2019;

For VS 2019 the registry key is: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Licenses\41717607-F34E-432C-A138-A3CFD7E25CDA

For VS 2015, a key is

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Licenses\4D8CFBCB-2F6A-4AD2-BABF-10E28F6F2C8F

for what it's worth...
