  • I've used config.office.com to create the XML file needed, stated Microsoft Project 2016 Standard - Volume Licensing, set it to a MAK key and input the key, set auto activation. Used the tool to download and install, all good. Launch the software, says it's not activated. Go to change the key, input the key and get the following error.
  • Downgrade Rights in Volume Licensing programs give you the right to use any prior version of the same product. For example, if you're licensed for Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2019 through Volume Licensing, you can use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016 instead.
  • 'You need to activate Office for Mac within X days' after activating already. Microsoft is aware of and currently working on this issue. If you've activated Office for Mac 2016 but are still seeing a message that says 'You need to activate Office for Mac within X days,' please try these steps to resolve your issue: Run the License Removal Tool.

Office 2013-2016 C2R Program Overview

The design of this utility is easy to understand, you can choose in the ‘Main' tab what you like to install, if you like to install Office in a full setup, check everything but the program also gives you the opportunity to install only certain parts (single products) of the Office in case you only need eg. Word.

Office 2013-2016 C2R comes in two versions, a Lite one and a normal one, both are available as installer or portable version. The Lite version comes without the utility tab which means you only can install and configure Office.

As the name suggest the program works with all supported Office version from 2013 up to the latest Office 2019 package. The download links within the program are fetches from official MS servers.

Program usage

Here the basic steps to use this program:

  • Uninstall Office 2016 via (Control panel) applet 'Add or remove Programs' in case Office is already installed.
  • Uninstall Office 2016 using the 'Force Remove Office' and restart your computer. You can skip this part if you never had Office installed, this is only needed to remove leftovers.
  • Install Office by clicking the 'Install Office' button, in case you haven't Office, go to the 'Download Office' Tab and select the version which you like to download.
  • Go to 'Utilities' tab and do the conversion 'Office RETAIL => VL'. (The step is optional)
  • Then click 'Activate Office' and click 'Activate Office'.

The Uninstall process is optional and only required if Office is already installed since the program needs to convert your version to a volume license in order to activate it.

Scenarios that use ospp.vbs

The following scenarios assume that you are running ospp.vbs in an elevated command prompt.

Note

Any changes that you make affect only the Office client products. You have to configure the Windows client separately by using the slmgr.vbs script described in The slmgr.vbs script later in this article.

To change the product key to a MAK key on a remote computer

  1. If the remote computer is named contoso1, run the following command to enter the product key. This assumes that you have administrator credentials on the remote computer. If your credentials on the remote computer differ from your logon name and password, you must type your logon name and password at the command line, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx contoso1

  2. To activate the remote computer, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /act contoso1

To diagnose KMS activation errors

  1. If the computer has the KMS client key installed, check the licensing status. To do this, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /dstatusall

  2. To check the KMS activation history, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /dhistorykms

  3. To trigger activation, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /act

  4. Check the error message for error code 0xC004F042. If in the notification dialog boxes you see an error code that is shown to users, you can also use that code to check the error message. To do this, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /ddescr:0xC004F042

To turn on or off KMS host caching on the KMS client

  1. On the KMS client computer, to turn caching on, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /cachst:TRUE

  2. On the KMS client computer, to turn caching off, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /cachst:FALSE

To test KMS host name, and then set to auto-discovery

  1. If you are testing a KMS host named kmstest.contoso.com, and you want to specify it in the KMS client, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:kmstest.contoso.com

    Note

    Microsoft project professional 2016 download for mac. If you change the default port on the KMS host computer, you must run ospp.vbs with the /setprt option. > For example: cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1750

  2. To trigger activation, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /act

  3. To check the KMS activation history to see whether the host was successfully contacted, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /dhistorykms

  4. Now you want this KMS client to use Domain Name System (DNS) for auto-discovery of the production KMS host. To remove the KMS host name, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    cscript ospp.vbs /remhst

The slmgr.vbs script

The Software License Manager (slmgr.vbs) script is used to configure and retrieve volume activation information for the Office KMS host and the Windows host. For more information, see Configuring KMS Hosts for Windows.

You can run the script locally on the target computer or remotely from another computer. You have to be an administrator to use the script. If a standard user runs slmgr.vbs, some license data might be missing or incorrect, and many operations are prohibited.

The slmgr.vbs script can use the Windows-based script host, wscript.exe, or the command-based script host, cscript.exe, and administrators can specify which script engine to use. If no script engine is specified, slmgr.vbs runs by using the default script engine, wscript.exe. We recommend the cscript.exe script engine.

You must restart the Software Licensing Service for any changes to take effect. To restart the Software Licensing Service, use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) Services snap-in or run the following command:

net stop sppsvc && net start sppsvc

The slmgr.vbs script requires at least one parameter. If you run the script without any parameters, it displays Help information. The following table lists slmgr.vbs command-line options, and a description of each. Most of the parameters in the table configure the KMS host computer. However, the parameters /sai and /sri are passed to KMS clients after the KMS clients contact the KMS host computer. The general syntax of slmgr.vbs is as follows (assuming you are using the cscript.exe as the script engine):

Guitar rig for mac free download. cscript slmgr.vbs /parameter

cscript slmgr.vbs [ComputerName] [User] [Password] [Option]

ComputerName Name of the remote computer. If you do not provide a computer name, the local computer is used.

User Account with required permission on the remote computer.
