KeysExport Viewer is a viewer for the KeysExport.xml file available to MSDN subscribers. This file contains all of the serial numbers that they have generated or that have been generated for them.
It's very easy to download new versions of this file, but I'd rather not have to read through a bunch of XML if I'm trying to grab the right key to use on an install. At the time I created this project, this was also a great way to learn some new-to-me .NET development.
A huge thank you to all those who have contributed to the project, helping keep it alive and useful to developers.
- Displays each serial number for product keys
- Displays HTML data where present in place of serial numbers
- Allows you to filter the list, showing just the entries you are looking for
Prior to writing KeysExport Viewer, I just tossed generated keys into a text file. The advantage this had over parsing the XML is that I could add notes, documenting things like which VM a specific serial number was used in.
"Someday" I want to build a way to add additional notes like that. Perhaps a zip file (with some custom extension) that contains a SQLite database and the most recently provided XML file?
