Restore Windows 8.1 Bing

[ayon03_cena]

Good day to all members. I badly need help. I upgraded my Laptop Asus X453MA to Windows 10. After 15 days, my PC got infected by a virus. I decided to reset the laptop and after that, my restore files has been deleted and I cannot restore it to it's Original OS, (Windows 8.1 with Bing).
- It's asking me for an installation media of Windows 8.1 with Bing, which I don't have. Can't find it on Microsoft website either.

Now I have installed a Windows 8.1 N (Downloaded it from Microsoft and was able to find a generic product code online) on my computer and now it's running fine ; however, it is not the Genuine Windows and I cannot upgrade it to Windows 10 again. I've brought it to the Asus Service Center and they said I have to pay for the restoration. It sucks, because in the first place they should be giving installation medias for back up. Guys please help me. I want to restore the Original OS of my laptop. I'm losing hope 🙁

Additional Information and Questions:
* I found out Online that the product key is embedded in the BIOS.
- Question is, will I still be able to get the product key using a Product key extractor even I have a different Windows version now?


Any help will be so much appreciated, god bless you guys. Thank you in advance.

Got to pay. Should have create a restore media before you did the windows 10 upgrade.
The key only work with Windows 8.1 with bing, not going to work with anything else.

I found a link online that has a Windows 8.1 with Bing Installation media, do you think I can use this to restore my OEM's OS? Or the product key in my BIOS automatically activates it?

Don't know, worst case for you it that it is full of malwares, or doesn't install or activate.
