No machine released with Windows 8 from vendor will come with a Windows 8 License sticker underneath, regardless of the brand. This is one of Microsoft's security measures to reduce piracy. The Product key is electronically stored in the firmware of your mainboard. So if you need to reset or reinstall Windows 8, you don't need to hunt for the product key. It's automatically applied and activated..

 

To restore the OEM version of windows 8, you need to use the recovery media that you have created from your computer. You also have the option to purchase the recovery disc from Acer store. It will install the Operating System, all the pre-installed Software and the drivers of your system.
