If you don’t have the product key, you can try checking the packaging or documentation that came with the device. If that doesn’t work, you can reach out to the manufacturer or Microsoft Support for assistance.

You were kidding, right…

… We’re ON the “manufacturer’s” forum right here, and why would anybody need to reach out to (mostly useless) Microsoft Support; blah, anyway

I reinstalled Windows using the media creation tool, skipped the key part during setup, and it activated automatically once I connected to Wi-Fi. The key was tied to the device.

I had a similar issue before. I reset Windows, and the system activated automatically since the key is stored in the BIOS. If you’re setting things up from scratch again, you might also want to check out the office 2024 one‑time purchase if you don’t need a subscription version. It’s a good option if you only need the basics without monthly payments.
