retrieving cd license

We bought Adobe Photoshop a while back. The user who installed it on his computer "misplaced" it and no longer works here. Needless to say, we have not been able to find it.

My question is, is there a way to retrieve the license info from the registry? The computer is Windows XP. I need to reformat the computer but am loathe to do it until this Photoshop issue is worked out.

try using Belarc

Thanks. I will try that next. I just found a similar program call aida www.aida32.hu - I am setting up the computer and will run that. If it does not give me the info, I will try belarc.

Thanks

I installed Aida. It gave me a report but did not include the license for Photoshop. I then tried Belarc and it gave the license for every piece of software installed on the computer - including Photoshop. Thanks again.

Now I have to request from Adobe a replacement cd. I will send them the receipt of my purchase along with the license and hope they are forthcoming..
