I bought the game from the Games for Windows Marketplace. But my account is now gone, so I can't login and get the key. I do still have the game installed, so how can I get the key back? From the registry or ?

Thanks.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires 3\1.0]

That's from a 64 bit OS, might be a different reg key in 32 bit.

What do you mean your account is gone?

I had a Windows Live ID setup that also stored my phone settings for windows mobile. Anyway, microsoft discontinued the service, so I decided to delete my Windows Live ID. I had forgot, that I also used this ID to buy the game. Well it's deleted and my login doesn't work anymore for the marketplace, so I can't get my key.

Not working for me. This is the collector's edition with all of the expansions in it. I have the AOE folder and 2 expansion folders. But there are no registry keys inside them at all. Also on windows 7 64-bit.
