You'll also need to install the Office Volume License Pack for each version of Office on the KMS host computer and activate a KMS host key for each version of Office. In these cases, the KMS host computer must be running an operating system that supports KMS for each of the versions of Office that you want to activate. You can also configure a KMS host computer to activate multiple versions of Office, such as Office LTSC 2021, Office 2019, and Office 2016. If you have a KMS host computer configured to activate Windows, you can configure that same KMS host computer to activate Office. Then, you need to activate the KMS key over the internet or by telephone. To enable the KMS host computer to activate Office, you must install the Office Volume License Pack and enter your KMS key on the KMS host computer. You can configure a Windows Server computer to be a KMS host computer by installing the Volume Activation Services role and then running the Volume Activation Tools wizard. To activate volume licensed versions of Office, including Project and Visio, you must have a Key Management Service (KMS) host computer. I don't know why.Applies to: Volume licensed versions of Office LTSC 2021, Office 2019, and Office 2016 (including Project and Visio) I'm confused because I used KMS to activate Office reliably for years and suddenly it's not working. It gave this message:Ĭould not detect Office ClickToRun service. I'm assuming if this is not going to work then no other program in the megathread list will work in activating it because for some reason the version I have is incompatible with KMS activation and such? Or is there a way around?įurther edit: I saw on the megathread that they have something to convert retail versions to volume licences and I ran that CMD script but it did not work. So basically I tried to run the activation scripts from the MAS entry in the megathread and this is what the CMD file said in response when I clicked activate:ĭoes anyone know what that means? Retail versions? When I press activate Office, literally nothing happens.Įdit: The automod linked me to the tools page of the megathread which was helpful. I had previously been able to activate it no problem using KMS Auto but now that doesn't work for some reason. The program still works but it keeps on saying the product is not activated every time I open it and that's annoying.

I looked through the megathread, could not find anything useful for this purpose. When I used toolkit it just said "invalid class" and when I used those CMD activators it just said my version is not supported.

I've done all the standard stuff already nothing works.
