And the Click-2-Run (C2R) packages are also supposed to still work regarding activation.Īnd as a follow-up question: There is the possibility to backup an activation file and save it back after a new Office installation. Question: are there similar affected parties – and what type of license (retail or volume) could no longer be activated? It may be that only MAK keys are affected, while Office 2010 can still be activated against a Key Management Server (KMS key required). The phone activation example cited above was likely a retail package, the Twitter example referenced above was related to a MAK key. Regardless of whether support for Office 2010 has expired, I'm wondering if the above examples are isolated cases, or if the activation infrastructure has been/is being shut down, and whether it affects retail or volume licenses. This again shows the ugly side of Microsoft Office: If Microsoft thinks that the support has expired, they are able to refuse the re-activation – so the product can no longer be used.

People had to do a phone activation because the online activation didn't work anymore. I had already addressed the issue of Microsoft Office 2010 activation within my German blog blog in 2017. Besides, not everyone wants this C2R technology on their machine (see Office: Instabilities/crashes due to C2R and MSI parallel installation?). And a Facebook user wrote that an activation with C2R still works – but I'm not sure if a key can be used for an MSI installation with Click-to-Run (C2R). It could also be a Linux-based KMS server, as I read on Facebook at a feedback to my German copy of this article. Notes: Activating a KMS key against a Key Management Server probably still works, as I interpret above tweet right. So there, too, activation seems to be denied by Microsoft.
