--- Comment #6 from robspaulo@freenet.de 2012-06-15 05:41:44 CDT --- Hello everybody,
for those who are working with MS Office for example in a company that provides a volume licence should have noticed that it is not possible to activate the product with the "cscript <whatever>" solution.
I analysed this visual basic script and found a workaround for this issue:
There are three different registry entries that have to be added:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform]
Insert:
"KeyManagementServiceName REG_SZ <Licence server>" "KeyManagementServicePort REG_SZ <Port of licence server>"
Start MS Office (i.e. Word). Then an additional entry will be automatically created:
[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-20\Software\Microsoft\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform]
Insert: "VLRenewalSchedule REG_BINARY <any value>"
Alternatively it might be possible to copy the value of "VLRenewalSchedule" from [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-0-0-0-1000\Software\Microsoft\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform]
It is possible that you have to start MS Office, close it completely and restart it.
In the menu of Word go to "File - Help". You should now see that MS Office was successfully activated.
Greetings,
Robert.
