I'm not going to waste your time explaining what office suite is. I'm not that shitty blog filled with paragraphs of copy pasted content, haunted with adverts. You know, I know, we all know what office is. It's become such an integral part of our day to day life.
You will learn how you can activate your own copy of office very easily.
📁 A brief Intro to Office Suites
Skip this if you're familiar with the various versions of Office suites and have a clear idea between Office standalone and Office 365.
To put it simply, Microsoft has 2 suites of Office- Office 2016/2019/2021 and Office 365, now named as Microsoft 365. Both are very versatile in their own ways.
The key difference between both of them is- Office standalone requires a one-time payment while Office 365 is subscription based meaning, you pay a monthly fee to get your copy activated. In case you would like to learn more, go here.
📁 Installation Process
⚠️ I highly recommend you first uninstall your existing version of office. This is to prevent confusion with multiple office suites. Uninstall it from control panel.
Head over to this link and download the release and install it.
Click the deploy tab. Now choose the version of office you would like to install. (I suggest you to go with
Office 365 Enterprise
it has the most features)Wait for installation to complete.
After completion of installation, go back to the main menu and click the activation tab. You will be greeted with a few options.
Under the license management tab, choose
Office Mondo 2016 - Volume - [Mondo Volume]
and click Install Licenses.Under Key Management tab, add the following -
HFTND-W9MK4-8B7MJ-B6C4G-XQBR2
and click on install key.Under KMS Management tab, add the following:
KMS Host: kms.loli.beer
KMS Port: 1688
and click set KMS host.
Now, click on activate button at top right corner.
Done! You should get a confirmation popup like this:
- Check if your copy is activated by opening word/excel/powerpoint and going the the Account tab. You should get a message like this (ignore the belongs to: part)
In case you do not get this, check the steps and follow properly. Make sure there aren't other versions of Office installed.
If your copy of Office is still not activated, go to Toolbox tab from main menu and use the Restore Office Settings to Default option. Your copy should now be activated.
