    @abbodi1406 I'm sorry if I wasn't clear
    I uninstalled office using the following link https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/discussion-microsoft-office-2019.75232/page-33#post-1466365
    I reinstalled Office 365 + Project + Visio using OfficeRTool
    Office 365 had gone back to Grace Period/Trial, Project and Visio's Lisences remained activated
    I tried cleanospp, didn't work
    I tried unpkey, didn't work
    I tried what @ratzlefatz recommended
    I reinstalled Office AGAIN and Project and Visio's Lisences remained activated

    Any chance that OfficeRTool modified a system file?

    cleanospp removes product keys and licenses, it will not / cannot remove or reset KMS activation, because it's tied with Windows activation, and require spp store rebuild (not just tokens.dat), or rearm Office

    if you uninstalled Project/Visio product keys, then i don't know how it's possible the licenses remain activated
    unless Office itself reinstall the keys when you run Project/Visio

    anyway, better ignore this licenses duplication, as long as programs and features are working

    Can we use officeRtool to get office 365 features?

    Some experiments with adding ProofingTools and LanguagePack alone with ODT (after Office is already installed)

    first of all, both must have the same version as already installed Office C2R
    otherwise, the setup will look for or download the full Office source matching LangPack version, and perform upgrade or downgrade

    LanguagePack requires the same set of files as complete Office source, except the neutral stream (stream.x86.x-none.dat or stream.x64.x-none.dat)

    however, setup also needs "access" to the source files of currently installed Office Language
    by access i mean it check the availability of files, if they don't exist locally in the source path of LanguagePack, it check the files online using the registered cdnbaseurl
    for stream .dat files, it only check that they are available online
    for .cab files, it download them to verify the already installed components (e.g. s320.cab, s321033.cab)

    so, if you want to install LanguagePack completely offline, you will need to have complete Office source files for the main language too
    otherwise, internet is required for reachability check (i took the term from log files)

    ProofingTools require 5 files (x86) or 4 files (x64)
    e.g. english x86:
    Code:
    i320.cab
    i640.cab
    s320.cab
    sp321033.cab
    stream.x86.en-us.proof.dat
    it have the same behavior regarding reachability check for the source files of installed Office

    Apologies if this has been asked/answered before but I couldn't find a specific posting....

    Office 365 vs. Office 2019....My understanding is that the Office part of O365 has features not included in O2019. so...

    1. Can O365 be activated without having to do so thru MS account? If so, how?
    2. If I download/activate the O2019 part of O365, does that mean I get features that I wouldn't get if I only downloaded O2019 (and does the O2019 part of O365 get activated the same just like I was activating O2019?)
    3. If I install the O2019 part of O365 will O2019 be updated with new features just like O365 would be (maybe this is a circular reference back to No. 1, above)?
    4. Or does it not matter and downloading O2019 vs. the O2019 part of O365 is basically the same product?

    Thx to the people who have worked so diligently to make this happen. Amazing and you are Gods!!!!

    Thx in advance....

    1. Not directly, but by converting O365 licensing to Mondo volume, it can be activated with KMS and get some of Office 365 features

    There is no O2019 of O365 or O2019 alone, it's the only same Office 2019

    if you mean the version number (higher Retail vs. lower Volume), it should not affect the actual Office 2019 features which are determined by licenses

    I've installed office 365 using the "Office 365 ProfessionalPlus" option in the tool, but my office program says the following:
    Product Activated
    Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2016.
    Is this expected? If so, how can I check that I did in fact install 365 correctly?
    I have done this multiple times with the same outcome, so I don't think it's an error in my option selection.

    Sorry for my Noob-question, but I'm a bit confused?

    How is it possible to get 365-Version with newer Icons (for example in Outlook)?

    Yesterday I installed Off365ProPlusRetail first time and got it. Now I did experiment a bit and reinstall Off365 and in the end I lose this feature.

    Does it depends on x86/x64 bit Version? Or maybe activation mode?

    Yesterday I have installed x86-Off365 (monthly Channel), no convertion from Retail to Volume, KMS-Act. by script, Prof.Plus-Key (WFG99).
    Now I have installed: x64-Off365 (monthly Channel), using ORT, convertion RT to VL, Mondo-Channel

    Got it back:

    ol1.jpg
    ol2.jpg
    ol4.jpg
    ol3.jpg

    I dont know if it has as much functions like real Office 365, as Mondo-Licence? Mine looks like that:

    Thx. Got it.

    So, with the "Mondo" licensing for O365, will it receive new features in the future as MS provides them for the O2019 products?

    Also, is there a posting here somewhere that shows the features Mondo licensing will enable/license and those that it won't?

    Cheers.....

    Office 2019 will not recieve any new features, say MS
    Office 365 will get any new features

    it's hard to tell what features Mondo unlock or if it can unlock new features

    i can only notice the UI changes, i barely use any Office

    I have a Microsoft Office 2016 Professional Plus license. Is it normal? Maybe it's because I used KMS_VL_ALL-SppExtComObjPatcher-kms's $OEM$ folder to pre-activate Windows 10. Does it mean that I don't have Office 365 full features? Also, I don't know why but my Office 365 doesn't automatically update to the last build. Is it because of the previous situation?

    Nothing normal with your continuous tweaking :)

    we are not magicians to speculate how did you installed Office C2R or what you used for licensing conversion

    What continuous tweaking? I didn't use Office C2R (since I don't want certain components) and I used the OfficeRTool.

    Yes, I used the latest version and after doing a clean install so maybe it's caused by the $OEM$ folder. I'll try without it. Should I use an untouched ISO?

    I installed Office 2019 on Windows 10 LTSC, but am not able to activate it.

    Shows 'Activating Office 19, Office19ProPlus2019VL_KMS_Client_AE edition' and then 'Activation failed'. Any help?
