The image below applies to Microsoft Office 2013 and newer, even though they are pushing their 365 subscriptions. Unfortunately, Microsoft made changes beginning with Office 2013, where only the last five digits of the product key get stored on your PC. Each one has specific methods for installation and reinstallation, as well as how the product key gets stored and used.
There are four types of Microsoft Office software: Retail, Subscription, Volume, and OEM. It’s difficult to find, so you might be panicking trying to remember the lost activation code. Dig around to find the full key (box, receipt, email, etc.)Īre you having trouble reinstalling your Microsoft Office? In all likelihood, you’ve forgotten your product activation key.You’ll see the last five characters of your Office product key.
Type cscript "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office16\OSPP.vbs" /dstatus and press “Enter.” Your location of OSPP.vbs may vary.How can I "input"/associate my product key with Office 2007 without using the "Enter Your Product Key" dialog, since, clearly, it doesn't work?Ĭlarification: I'm not even talking about the activation process, merely making Office 2007 aware that there is a product key somehow. I looked up the registry location of the Office 2007 product key, and apparently the key is encrypted, so I can't just write the product key to the registry and call it a day. I thought it might be resolved later, but that turned out to be wishful thinking. It was like this during Setup, so I just clicked Continue. It is literally as if it were an image, rather than a clickable and typable field. I have a product key I've used with this successfully before on Windows XP yet, my issue is that I cannot click in the form field in the Enter Your Product Key window.
However, I'm unable to activate Office and I only have 9 uses left. With some difficulties, I've been able to install Office 2007 onto Windows 2000.Īfter patching the environment variable to fool Office into thinking it was running on Windows XP, the annoying dialogs that said it wasn't supported went away, which didn't make sense because everything else worked just fine.
