‘Get genuine Office’ banner

+

+

TL;DR To solve it, use the latest abbodi1406’s KMS_VL_ALL or +MAS to activate Office.

+
+
+

Reasons

+
    +

  • Office Click-to-Run builds (since February 2021) that are +activated with KMS checks the existence of the KMS server name in the +registry. If KMS server is not present, a banner is shown in Office +programs notifying that “Office isn’t licensed properly”

    • +

  • In case of 32-bit Office installed on 64-bit Windows, Office +checks the KMS server existence in corresponding WOW6432Node registry +key as well.

    • +

  • Apart from this, they also detect if registered KMS server is in +their blacklist or not. As far as I know, they blacklisted below 3 +addresses.

    +

    km-s8.MSG-uides.com km-s9.MSG-uides.com +0.0.0.0(Remove hyphen)
    +First two are public KMS servers and last one in simple words is neither +a public or private IP.

    • +

  • Please note that these checks are not performed by Office if +proper installation of Volume version of Office is done with +Perpetual2019 / 2021 VL channel.

    • +
+
+
+
+

Solutions:

+

Please find below various ways you can avoid this banner. Simplest +option for you is to just use a Office activation tool mentioned +here.

+
+
+

1- Activation Tools

+
    +
  • Use the latest abbodi1406’s KMS_VL_ALL or +MAS to activate Office.
    • +
+
+
+
+

2- Manual Activation

+

In this section I’m only going to mention how to setup KMS server in +registry properly.

+
    +

  • If using Public KMS server:
    +Since they can put any public KMS server in blacklist, as a permanent +solution, we can instead use server IP instead of hostname.

    • +

  • If using private KMS server IP:
    +    Make sure to use a valid private IP address.

    • +
+

Please find below how to set the KMS server address in registry. +Example with a private IP 10.0.0.10

+
reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\0ff1ce15-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663" /f
+
+reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\0ff1ce15-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663" /f /reg:32
+
+reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform" /f /v KeyManagementServiceName /t REG_SZ /d "10.0.0.10"
+
+reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform" /f /v KeyManagementServiceName /t REG_SZ /d "10.0.0.10" /reg:32
+
+
+
+

3- Install VL Office

+

As mentioned in reasons section, these checks are performed only if +Retail Office is installed and later converted to VL. Office doesn’t +perform any such checks if proper installation of VL office is done.

+

Please find below guide on how to properly install Volume C2R +Office.

+

Clear previous installation of Office:

+
    +

  • Uninstall the office with App and Features option in Windows +settings.

    • +

  • Run Full_Scrub.cmd file from Office +Scrubber (Mirror) +by abbodi1406 and reboot the system.
    +Full Scrub is optional, you can skip this step if you want to save +outlook related data.
    +It’s recommended to at-least run Remove_Licenses.cmd file +from this package.

    • +
+

Install Office 2021 VL with Official method:

+

Please note that in the official VL office installation method, there +is no ISO or any one click solution available. Below is the simplest +guide to install VL office.

+
    +

  • Download Office +Deployment Tool (ODT)

    • +

  • Copy the downloaded setup.exe file to the root of +the C drive, i.e. C:\setup.exe

    • +

  • Goto config.office.com

    • +

  • Select +Office LTSC Professional Plus 2021 - Volume License in the +office suites section. You can add Visio and Project apps if you need. +Customize other things and leave as default where you don’t understand +something.

    • +

  • Once you go through all the options, click on the export button +and it will download a file named +Configuration.xml

    • +

  • Copy the downloaded Configuration.xml file to the +root of the C drive, i.e. C:\Configuration.xml

    • +

  • Open the command prompt as admin and run the below commands

    +
    cd /d C:\
+setup.exe /configure Configuration.xml
    • +
+

It will now download and install Office. You can activate it with +your preferred method.

+
+
+
+

4- Change Update Channel

+
    +

  • If we change the Insider or Current update channel +to Monthly Enterprise or Semi-Annual channel then such +non-genuine banners won’t appear by default.

    • +

  • Before doing this, make sure your Office update channel is either +Insider or Current.

    • +

  • Make sure Internet is connected

    • +

  • Open command prompt as admin and enter below lines and press +enter,

    • +
+ +
reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Configuration /v CDNBaseUrl /t REG_SZ /d "http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/55336B82-A18D-4DD6-B5F6-9E5095C314A6" /f
+
+reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Configuration /v UpdateUrl /f
+
+reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Configuration /v UpdateToVersion /f
+
+reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\ClickToRun\Updates /v UpdateToVersion /f
+
+reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\OfficeUpdate\ /f
+
+"%CommonProgramFiles%\microsoft shared\ClickToRun\OfficeC2RClient.exe" /update user
+
    +

  • It will change the update channel to Production::MEC | +MonthlyEnterprise

    • +

  • Make sure Office starts updating with the last command.

    • +
