Downloads and Keys page categories

The Downloads and Keys page includes several ways to find the products you want and then download them or get product keys for
them:
 CATEGORIES check boxes

 Search Products box
 Product list
 Downloads and Keys icons for each product
 EXPORT ALL KEYS button
By default, pages are limited to five results per page. To view more than five results per page, scroll to the bottom of the page and
select a larger number from the Results per page options.

Product Descriptions
Details about the product version, special instructions, and system requirements are provided by product.
1. Select More to view additional details about a product.
2. Select Less to minimize the information.
Search for products

There are two ways to find a product. They can be used separately or in combination:
1. Select one (or more) of the checkboxes under CATEGORIES. This narrows the list to the products in the selected product
family.
2. Type the name of the product in the Search box. As you start typing, a list of product names should appear in a drop-down
menu. Select a product name or continue your search by selecting the magnifying glass icon or pressing Enter on your
keyboard. This limits the search results to only those products containing the words you typed.
TIP If you don’t know the precise name of the product version you are trying to find (or can’t remember it), you may want to ask
your partner for help or search for the product name on Microsoft.com by visiting the website for its product family.

Obtain keys
To find the keys associated with the product you selected, select the Keys icon. The drop-down panel provides product and key
information and a list of available keys.
NOTE Some products do not require a key.
Filter the key list (multiple accounts)

If you have multiple accounts, it is a good idea to filter for the account you want before exporting or printing keys. To filter the list, open
the Account menu (top right of page), and select the account for which you want the keys. After filtering the list, only the keys
associated with that account will be printed or exported. The Account menu filters all lists in the Business Center that pertain to
accounts, so when you are done, set Account back to All.
Use the PURCHASING ACCOUNT menu to select the accounts you want.

Export all keys

To export all the keys for an account, do the following:
1. Select EXPORT ALL KEYS. You can print a list of all keys or export the file in CSV format.
2. To print a list of all keys, select PRINT KEYS.
3. To export the file for later use, select EXPORT AS A CSV.
Download products
To download a software product, do the following:
1. Select the Downloads icon to the right of the product.
2. Check if there are any special instructions, such as a setup key or an acknowledgement of the terms of use.
3. Select the language and operating system that you want from the FILES drop-down list.

4. Select the Download button(s) at the bottom of the product description. If there are multiple items under a product bundle, all
of the products can be downloaded at the same time by selecting each of the available DOWNLOAD buttons. The products
will download concurrently.
5. Select the appropriate option to Run, Save, or Cancel the request.
