In this video, I'm going to show you how to perform an update from Windows Server 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2012 R2. For most installs there will be a point in which it asks for the key just put the key in and click next. This version has the key already included in the installer which is the reason you didn't see it pop up looking for it.

Don't forget you have to be booted up in the Server 2008 OS before you can start the installer to perform the upgrade.

We are in no way shape or form associated with Microsoft nor the development or distribution of any of their products. This video was made simply for demonstration and educational purposes. We do recommend Server 2012 R2 for home servers and enterprise servers because it works great and there is so much software out there for it.
