    SLIC 2.1 windows

    Recently office 2016 OPK cannot be activated on SLIC windows. Otherwise I enter key and activate again then office OPK can be installed and activated by using genuine key.

    Any idea what going on?

    I would like an objective explanation of the difference between each channel (Current Channel, Fast Channel Insider, First Release for Current Channel, Deferred Channel, First Release for Deferred Channel and Volume License). I imagine the difference lies in the features of each release. . .

    Hello,

    Why is it still in Beta?
    Any place to see the release notes of all versions?

    Are you aware of that some Anti Virus find some files in the folders problematic?

    Thank You.

    N00b question.
    Another N00b here, even more N00b than I am, managed to de-activate office 2016 and it cannot be activated again.
    I used the C2R version, after that converted to VL with aboddi's tool and activated with latest KMS VL ALL.
    That was working OK until some stupid cow managed to use the "Sign In" future.
    After that Office showed "activation error" and even though KMS VL ALL is correctly installed, it won't activate Office 2016 only Windows.

    I was pretty sure this setup was n00b proof but it seems not enough. What can be done in this case?

    Cheers.

    Because Microsoft still delivers Office "Betas". If they freeze Office development, then
    O2016RTool will be declared "Final". BTW "status" or "naming" is not of that importance.
    Functionality counts.

    I'm sorry, there doesn't exist any summary. New changes are listed in announcement
    posts. Functionality and new features are described in updated readme.pdf file which
    is included in every O2016RTool.7z archive.

    False positives. Some (but not all) AV declared them generic as "Potentially Unwanted
    Software/PUS" or "KMS-Activation-Hacktool". This classfication indeed is correct (from
    Microsoft's point of view ;) ). You can safely ignore this. And to avoid AV's complaining
    again, configure a scan-exclusion of O2016RTool folder.

    Thank's to a good friend (you know who you are) we are getting access to a unknown Office 2016 distribution
    channel. Up to now this offers another Office Version 16.0.10325.20025 (last checked July 03, 2018).
    Official "Insider FAST" distribution channel has: 16.0.10325.20017.

    Of course you can enter any of the other "MS internal use only" location-id's ( if you know them ;) ).
    Important Update: Most Microsoft "internal use only" channel ID's now available. For a list look -> here.

    To get and test this unknown version use latest OfficeRTool, select [D]ownload and follow these instructions:

    Set Download Path >d:\test (or any other diskdrive letter and/or directory)

    @all:
    In case you had a former version already installed and internal update (menu -> file -> account -> update option -> update now)
    doesn't show the new version, then run "regedit", look for and remove current entry:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\OfficeUpdate

    After deleting this key, start Word (or any other Office app) and try update again. Now it will work.

    The i640.cab of 16.0.7628.1000 is also bad , so i don't install it , wait the next build(16.0.7712.1000) and try .

    I also download 16.0.7668.2033 and compare what difference with other 5 channel .

    Newest Insider Fast 16.0.7112.1000 is available. File "i640.cab" is ok!
    Package can be downloaded/installed by O2016RTool.

    @Microsoft: Are all your quality assurance experts already out for xmas holidays?

    @all:
    If someone gets the idea, just to take "i640.cab" from another version/distribution channel, it may not work.
    I assume, you can't interchange file "i640.cab" between different versions/distribution channels, because of
    a version dependend hash-checksum. Content of "i640.hash" file from 16.0.7112.1000 stored in "i640.cab"
    archive:

    6FE797D51BB0D04CE382DD0D1017A4E5
    16.0.7712.1000
