I lost CD/Product key and keygens won't work

Is it at all possible to retrieve a CD key from the registry? I have a program installed that I'm also going to install on another computer, but I need the same product key that I used for my current computer.... a keygen will allow me to continue the install process but it will not let me authorize the product.

So.... are CD keys stored in the registry? I know there are programs that can discover the keys so they have to be stored on my computer somewhere, right?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Unfortunately it's not a Windows or Office key. The program is a VST sound library, EastWest Symphonic Orchestra Gold. Massive 9-DVD marathon.

I do know that most product keys won't let you activate the software on more than one PC though. Unless you've got a volume licence, such as is granted to unversities and such.
The standard license for this kind of software is two installs.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Do you have any proof of purchase?
All I'd be able to provide is photographic proof that I own the product.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It being a Friday evening, the earliest I can contact them is in three days; in the meantime I'm searching for ways to find CD keys in the registry.

EDIT
Holy fuck damn I was browsing one of my unused external hard drives for no reason and accidentally found a .txt file named 'Serial Numbers' and contained in that file is every CD Key for all my installed software. Holy shit I forgot all about that. Thanks guys for you help anyway though.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
