Saying "my laptop" tells us NOTHING about the make and model of the device. Unless you're willing to do some research and provide us the make and model laptop, we can't help you.

No I meant if there's a way to know it through my laptop settings cause there's a problem in the laptop's wifi so I thought it could be fixed by installing a new version of windows and I can't write my laptop specs manually

What you are calling the hotkey I suspect is the installation key. If so it's embedded in firmware (BIOS). You can reinstall Windows 8.1 if you want and the install program will get it from BIOS, you will not have to enter anything.

Make sure you backup anything you do not want to lose.

Please manually fill out your specs, at least info like manufacturer, complete model number, processor info, memory info.
