    No, sorry, I didn’t word that well, but I did mean licence. The license doesn’t show the 2016 Mondo on the Account screen, it shows the 2021 LTSC.

    Buy a full license (365, 2021) or be a lawbreaker (mondo within KMS).

    Yes I did have the new menu layout.... but recently I have had the yellow menu bar warning saying something like...."you may have been victim of software counterfeit" or " not genuine office"...

    I used OfficeRTool and KMS_VL_All to activate but my problem still exists.

    Activation method was with OfficeRTool but I kept on getting some error like.... this version of office 365 is not genuine or im the victim of software piracy or something like that.

    I've activated using both officeRTool and KMS_VL_All to no avail. Problem still exists.

    The pop up banner is gone but i didn't get a screenshot. I'm still left with no visual refresh on my menu.
    The registry entries all have the same value - 192.168.X.XX see attached.

    Office 365 won't activate by KMS, and the error is due to a mistrust of the activation method. You will probably have to use a scrubber.
    KMS_VL_All is different. It also says about the banner. Check the relevance of the knowledge and tools used. KMS_VL_ALL - Office / Project / Visio Installation- and Activation Instructions

    as long as you have them, it's fine, you not supposed to get any nag message
    about the second thing, re-run the script, maybe it will fix your problem
    if not, maybe scrub will help ;)

    Looks like they are planning to update the colors in the color theme. Haven't noticed a difference myself.
    Version 2211 (build 15806.20000) checks the status of records:
    Microsoft.Office.Graphics.UpdateOfficeDefaultTheme
    Microsoft.Office.Word.MonitorO15ColorScheme
    Microsoft.Office.Word.EnableThemeColorUpdate
    ___
    Sometimes I add only entries from the logs, you can find a separators --- in the attached file.

    Apologies if I've missed this in the thread. How do I get and activate the latest Office with visual refresh for Mac? I'm new to Mac, so would appreciate simple instructions if possible.

    Thanks in advance.
