    Hi,

    I have a system with Windows Vista on it and I installed Office 2010.

    I wanted to use Microsoft Toolkit to activate it but it gives me an error stating that KMS activation does not work on this OS.

    The PC is running Windows Vista SP2 Home Premium.

    Any suggestions on what to do?

    Thanks! :worthy:

    Hi,

    Yes. I was using the Office toolkit and not Windows toolkit.

    I still get a message stating that KMS is not offered on my OS (Windows Vista Home Premium).

    Hi,

    No I was installing Office from a disc but I can grab the ISO from it.

    I'll give that a shot.

    Thanks. :biggrin:
