Any Antivirus-Program, other than MS-Defender active? If yes, then it could be that AV blocks activation. Configure scan-exclusions in AV. What to exclude? If you used OfficeRTool for activation, see -> this post.
So, this time I didn't integrate the &OEM& folder (and because of that using I had to choose both converting office retail to volume and kms activation options in the OfficeRTool instead of just the first one) and nowit says I have Microsoft Office Mondo 2016 instead of Microsoft Professional Plus 2016. Does it mean that I have Office 365's full features and that it will automatically update itself from now on?
Which ones I don't have? But the previous one (the one which has the Office 2016 Professional Plus license) doesn't and I have to keep the $OEM$ folder so I will have the Office 2016 Professional Plus license again and does it mean I won't have those features and it won't automatically update?
I was wondering which one is better between office 2019 and office 2016 mondo feature wise, Do you have the new zoom and morph features in powerpoint in 2016 mondo?
Sorry, but I've never used Office 2019 and don't know what is this Mondo thing and its features and what are those zoom and morph features in powerpoint you are talking about.
A question: I installed Office Business Montly Channel (Visio and Project also) with OfficeRTool and activate it. Why don't I get new ribbon interface like my work legit installation?
I'm having the same problem. I tried it with Office ProPlus 2019 as well as ProPlus 2016 Using the 2018/December/02 version of the tool.
@molarc and @zchan: to get a second opinion, try this Retail2VL-conversion script (C2R-R2V_6.7z) from abbodi1406 and report back if it helped -> https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...install-activation.62571/page-28#post-1150042.
Don't know if this helps you, but here's what worked 3x (don't ask) for me on the same computer. I used the OfficeRTool to get the latest O2019 s/w downloaded from the right channel (monthly). Then I used Office.2013-2019.C2R.Install (OInstall) to convert retail-> VL and then activate it (already had the kms activator installed and running from O2016 install). For some reason I couldn't get the OfficeRTool to activate it or do anything beyond just getting O2019. Good luck and cheers.....
How do you get the New ribbon UI? I installed office 365 proplus and then used officeRtool dec, to convert it and activate. Now I have Office Mondo 2016, version 1901 (build 11128.20000) but i don't have the New ribbon. Do you guys know how to fix it?
I have a question I have MAK key for Office 2019 Pro Plus, however, is there any method that i can use to convert from Retail to Volume MAK instead of KMS? Because sometimes the C2R dosen't work
@BladeRider You want to convert from Office 2019 Pro Plus Retail to Volume? https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...install-activation.62571/page-28#post-1150042
Pardon me beforehand, I guess this has been asked a thousand of times before, but:if I use the internal KMS activator provided in the cmd, do I need to add something to the exclusions of Defender, so that my 180 activation period remains untouched due to an autoactivation task and I don't need to manually reactivate it later?
Thanks for the reply...I have tried the tool, but I can't activate it with my MAK key as it get convert into Volume-KMS
Sorry Blade, didn't know but if you hang on, someone with better knowledge than me can give you a proper answer to your question.
OfficeRtool sets defender exclusions. In my experience windows updates may reset/remove them, so keep an eye out for that.
@BladeRider I still use office 2010 but I have MAK(not Office 2019 but 2016) and if I install volume edition (2016 Pro Plus) I activate with MAK, no fuzz. Never tried conversion in this context but I have always been of the impression that ret2vol conversion would "smooth" things out. Anyhoo, I have been wrong before
