Not sure what you're asking? SimCity is downloaded and installed via Origin now - if you have an old copy on CD and you "lost" the CD and key, you don't need it anymore. Just log in to Origin under the account that had the game, and you can download it again.

    I was asking about the redegist thing. I lost the key and didn't install the game before.

      I see - if you've never installed the game, then regedit isn't going to help you. That tip was to find the key if it was installed on your computer.

      If you're saying you bought a boxed copy of SimCity, never installed the game, and have since lost the key - you're probably going to need to just go on Origin, buy a digital copy and install from there.
