&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[Image:Key code access window.jpg|thumb|The window in which you can add 25-character access keys.]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An [[access key]] is the 25-character code that accompanies all [[Guild Wars]] products; it is displayed as five groups of five characters each for easier reading in the form ABC12-FGH34-JKL56-MNO78-PQR90. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Acquisition ==&lt;br /&gt;
Every game box comes with a unique access key that is used to register an [[account]]. Existing accounts can be upgraded by adding access keys for additional features, including promotional items and additional [[campaign]]s. Once used, the key (and its associated features) are forever tied to that account and can no longer be added to any other accounts. Purchases made in the [[Guild Wars In-Game Store]] also came with an access key, but these were automatically registered to the current account.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[ArenaNet]] also makes use of access keys for promotional in-game items (e.g. [[Everlasting Henchman Tonic|Henchman Tonics]], pre-orders, magazines, and game conventions).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Portability ==&lt;br /&gt;
You have full access to all account features no matter which computer you use to play the game; you do not need to re-register, since your account data is stored on ArenaNet servers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Contacting support ==&lt;br /&gt;
When dealing with any account-related issues, [[support]] staff will ask you to prove ownership. The easiest way to do this is to provide them with one or more keys associated with your account. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Security ==&lt;br /&gt;
Because ArenaNet uses access keys as proof-of-ownership, never give your access key to anyone ''except'' when you have initiated an account-related request directly with support. &lt;br /&gt;
* '''Do not''' type your account key in-game; ArenaNet staff will never ask for it through [[chat]].&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Do not''' send your key information along with your password and email address.&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Do not''' reply to an unsolicited email by providing any security data (including the account key).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Adding a new key ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# On the [[Character selection screen]], press the button &amp;quot;Edit Account&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# Click &amp;quot;Manage Access Keys&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# Click &amp;quot;Add Key&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# You will be asked to confirm that you wish to add the key.&lt;br /&gt;
# After entering the key correctly, the game will display a note with details of new features that have been added to the account.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Notes ==&lt;br /&gt;
* It is not possible to split access keys. For example, buying the [[Guild Wars Trilogy]] will not allow you to add one campaign each to three different accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
