KMSpico is the most successful, frequently updated and 100% clean tool to permanently activate any version of Windows or Microsoft office within matter of seconds. “KMS” (Key Management Service) is a technology used by Microsoft to activate software deployed in bulk (e.g., in a corporate environment). I have Office 2016 for Mac installed for 2 years already, around 2 weeks ago all Office apps have been updated and I lost my activation. When trying to activate Word and Excel again, I get an.

How To Convert MAK Installation of Office 2016 to KMS

Problem:

I have rolled out several installs of Office 2016 using my MAK key but they won’t activate because I am out of MAK licenses. I have a new KMS server setup but I don’t want to reinstall all these machines.

Solution:

Run these commands from an Administrator Command Prompt:

cscript “C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice16ospp.vbs” /inpkey:JNRGM-WHDWX-FJJG3-K47QV-DRTFM
cscript “C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice16ospp.vbs” /act

The first command changes the product key to the standard KMS client key. The second command activates against your local KMS server.

KMS Keys for all products can be found here.

My customer wanted to know if Office 2016 copy was activated correctly on one of their computers. The story why it was necessary is told below.

Did Your Office 2016 or Office 2016 License Successfully Activate?

After the installation and activation of Office 2016 or Office 365 on your computer, you can make sure that your Office copy is activated correctly in the command prompt using ospp.vbs script included in Office.

First of all, you need to know the bitness of your Office (32- or 64-bit). To do it, start any Office program (Word, Excel, Outlook) and select File -> Office account -> About. In the next window the bitness of your copy will be shown. (In our example, it is 32-bit.)

Run the command prompt with the administrator privileges and go to the directory, which path depends on the bitness and versions of your Windows and Office:

Activate Office 2016 For Mac Kms

  • If you are using Windows x64 and Office 32-bit (the most typical case): CD %SystemDrive%Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice16
  • Windows x86 and Office 32-bit: CD %SystemDrive%Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16
  • Windows x64 and Office 64-bit: CD %SystemDrive%Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16

Check Office activation status with the following command:

cscript ospp.vbs /dstatus

According to the information the tool provides, this Office2016 copy is activated (LICENSE STATUS: —LICENSED—) on the KMS server (KMS machine name) using the GVLK for Office 2016 Pro Plus (Last 5 characters of installed product key). The license will be active for 176 days (REMAINING GRACE). If the KMS server is available, the license is automatically renewed for 180 days every 7 days (KMS Activation FAQ).

Removing Office 2016 Activation Window: Let’s Get Started

As we have seen earlier, the version of Office 2016 installed on this computer is activated, however when trying to start any Office products the following window appears:

Let’s get started
Choose one
  • Try – Get a free trial of Office 365
  • Buy – Buy Office from the Microsoft Store
  • Activate – Enter you Product Key or sign in

You can close this window that doesn’t restrict any Office features, but it appears every time when you start any of the products, that is terribly annoying. I could find out how to remove this activation window.

Office 2016 Mac Kms Activator

As it turned out the problem is related to the preinstalled Office 365 that had been uninstalled to install Office 2016 instead. I tried to use the removal tools offered on Microsoft website to remove this window, but they didn’t help.

The only feasible way was to remove the registry key (depending on the bitness of the system):

  1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftOffice16.0CommonOEM
  2. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice16.0CommonOEM

It is faster to do it in PowerShell:

Remove-Item –Path “HKLM:SOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftOffice16.0CommonOEM” –Recurse
Remove-Item –Path “HKLM: SOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice16.0CommonOEM” –Recurse

Just close all Office applications and start them again. The Office activation notification will disappear.
