This tool did work some time ago, then my Office application suddenly required activation. I tried using the tool again, but it did not work. I removed Office and reinstalled. I used the tool again and it is not working.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

KWong

Before install another Office, please first remove all old Office software, and restart PC.

IanMacO811

KWong I have tried this, using the manual uninstall instructions on the Microsoft website. Do you suggest a standard uninstall or manual?

If manual uninstall, do you have instructions to do so?

Please help. I have tried several times and still getting the same outcome.

I'm running MS Office Professional Plus 2016, 64-bit

Hi,
I see that you did not run the batch file with admin rights, please try again.

MikeMike

MikeMike
@KWong

I also check the file or directories your code is searching for:
"%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" - exists
"%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16" - exists
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" - does not exist
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16" - exists

I hope this helps.

my sense is that it has something to do with "the system cannot find the path specified message".

MikeMike

GuangP

I was always running it from my admin account. But, with right click and run with admin rights, it's the same thing:

KWong

MikeMike

Your Office 2016 is 64bit, Program(x86) folder cannot find is normal result.

GuangP

MikeMike
Please follow the instructions in post #1 above to clarify your issue.

GuangP First of all, please do the following steps

KWong

MikeMike

Because the number of daily clients is too big and still increasing over time, so the server can also be stuck at times. You can check and see if the server is overloaded or not here: http://status.msguides.com.
