The silver scratch-off box is an additional safety feature to protect the product key from
unauthorized use by third parties. The silver scratch-off box partially hides the product
key. It is supposed to prevent use of the product key by unauthorized third parties. You
usually do not need this product key for commissioning because a valid product key has
already been integrated into the pre-installed operating system.
