</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Can I activate Office 365?</strong><br>
<!---->Yes, use the Ohook activation option. However, you can't get server-side O365-specific features such as 1TB storage in OneDrive, though almost all other features and 5GB storage in a free OneDrive account would work fine.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Why Office is showing the "Update License" button in the file menu?</strong><br>
<!---->It is appearing even for customers who have a genuine subscription license and there is nothing to worry about. More <ahref="https://support.microsoft.com/office/update-license-button-29025197-58d9-4b17-acc1-99a45dabf330"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">info</a>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Can I get the Copilot feature in Office with MAS activation?</strong><br>
<!---->No. <ahref="https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/microsoft-copilot"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">Copilot</a> is an additional plan that can be added to existing subscriptions of Microsoft 365.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Can I get Python in Excel with MAS activation?</strong><br>
<ahref="https://support.microsoft.com/office/introduction-to-python-in-excel-55643c2e-ff56-4168-b1ce-9428c8308545"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">Python in Excel</a> is currently in the preview and it's a server-side feature. To get this feature, you need to switch the office update channel to the <ahref="https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/discussions/399#discussioncomment-8871527"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">Insider build</a> and then you will be able to get a few tries to test it if you don't have a Microsoft 365 subscription, meaning to get full access, you need a subscription license and it won't work with MAS activation.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>I'm getting an 'Office is not genuine' banner.</strong><br>
<!---->Run Ohook activation from the latest MAS version.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Can I delete the MAS folder after activation?</strong><br>
<!---->Yes.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>How is MAS able to activate?</strong><br>
<!---->Read activation details in the Docs section.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Does MAS work for Windows 7/8.1?</strong><br>
<!---->The online KMS option works for Windows 7 Pro & Enterprise (Not Ultimate). All Windows 8/8.1 editions are supported by the Online KMS option.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Where can I donate?</strong><br>
<!---->MAS project doesn't accept donations and it's free.<br>
<!---->It's because it's a community project and involves many contributors, splitting donations is not practical, and also because profiting from piracy is not good.</p>
