Hi andy; If the Freedom Scientific folder that is in the Program Files folder on the " C " ddrive is removed, the keys are gone as well from what I understand. I believe these keys reside in the Activation & Authorization folders inside the Freedom Scientific folder. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me. Hope this helps. Take care.
