      it should be in your MS online account as someone wrote, but in case of, I always save it on a USB key, hidden somewhere. You can also print it, or take a picture of it with your phone. Because there is no way to get it back.

              Yes that is possible, but should I repeat what I wrote earlier or can you just read it again?
