In Call of Duty DMZ, keys are essential items that can give you access to locked rooms, containers, caches, and other spaces. The Windmill Bag Key unlocks a specific duffle bag on the Vondel map, and you need to know the exact location of where to use it in the game. Obtaining the Windmill Bag Key isn't too difficult, and I got a couple of these simply by doing HVT Contracts. Here's how to get and where to use the Windmill Bag Key in DMZ.
DMZ Windmill Bag Key Exact Map Location
The Windmill Bag Key can unlock a duffle bag located on top of a tower in map sector E7 at the Stadium POI. Check the yellow circle on the map image above to see the exact location of where to use the Windmill Bag Key. A few AI forces guard the tower, so you have to eliminate them before getting inside the building. The duffle bag is on the top floor of this tower.

Before matchmaking, make sure to have the Windmill Bag Key stowed in your backpack. Once you spawn on Vondel, head for the Stadium POI. I would suggest getting a vehicle, as tons of AI forces patrol the Stadium area. Once you reach the tower, use the zipline to go to the top floor. This is where you will find the duffle bag shown in the image above, and you can use the Windmill Bag Key to open it.

There is a guaranteed method to get the Windmill Bag Key in DMZ, but this might change in upcoming seasons. In season 4, you can obtain a Windmill Bag Key by unlocking the Mayor's Briefcase near the City Hall POI at map sector G3. However, you must have the Mayor's Briefcase Key to unlock the Mayor's Briefcase.
I also acquired the Windmill Bag Key randomly after eliminating a High-Value Target. There are a few methods you can practice in every run to stack up on keys in DMZ. After spawning on Vondel, I recommend starting with an HVT Contract, as these AI forces have a higher chance of dropping keys. Similarly, it would be best to make it a habit to loot all the caches, crates, clothes, lockers, containers, and other loot spots while traversing the map.
Keys are often hidden in the most ordinary spots, so be sure to check everything. The other method to obtain keys is eliminating bosses, commanders, and enemy operators. Engaging in fights as a solo can be tricky, so I recommend taking on bosses with your teammates. Keep an eye out for Supply Drops, as these often have keys with other good loot.
Is the Windmill Bag Key loot worth it in DMZ?
The Windmill Bag Key unlocks a duffle bag inside which you will get special items like the Gold Bar. I used two Windmill Bag Keys to farm six Gold Bars. Similarly, you will also use the Barista's Bag Key, which is another essential key you can use on Vondel. The Barista's Bag Key unlocks the duffle bag at the cafe shop near the Mall POI, and inside this bag, you'll find the Stage Bag Key. There are two Stage Bags in Vondel, and both of them carry GPUs. GPUs are extremely rare, and you will need them to unlock the third Insured Weapon Slot. Therefore, the Windmill Bag Key's loot is absolutely worth it, as it will help you get some of the special loot items in the game.
