Welcome to the forum.

Where did you download Windows 7 from?

Key finder software can extract the key by running inside the Windows environment. So, does it mean Windows has been installed?

Why did you have to extract the keycode? Don't you have the Windows key with you?

During the installation, Windows must have asked for key to be entered, without which the installation does not go further. So, did you not enter the key there?

I hope we are talking about a genuine copy of Windows here, with a legitimate keycode, because we won't provide any help with pirated copies.

The Windows OS downloads are legal but you do have to have a valid key to use 'em.
