    I'm not sure if anyone else has reported this yet, I did a quick look and did not see it, but line 2213 of OfficeRTool (OfficeRTool2018Dec02) has an extra " that causes an error.

    set "DefExclusion="%OfficeRToolpath%\OfficeFixes\%winx%\FakeClient.exe"

    Should be

    set "DefExclusion=%OfficeRToolpath%\OfficeFixes\%winx%\FakeClient.exe"

    Notice the removal of the " after the equal sign. On my system, when running the KMS activation, it results in an error:
    \OfficeRTool\OfficeFixes\win_x64\FaceClient.exe" was unexpected at this time.

    Does office rtool default to activating office 365 to monthly retail channel?
    I couldn't find it written in the 1st page.

    Answer: NO, IT'S DEFAULTS TO SEMI ANNUAL CHANEL.

    Hey guys, I used this tool to get office 365. then converted retail license to volume but when I tried the KMS option within the tool, it said "Office was unexpected at this time". When I select "show activation status" it says "Remaining KMS activation period: 29 days left", so I'm wondering if I can try KMS_VL_ALL at this point or will it mess up everything?

    I'm running on windows 10 pro(activated by HWID) and this is my first attempt in installing and activating office on this machine and I haven't used any other KMS/activators for it so far.

    There are many methods but the best (IMO) is YAOCTRI

    Have any of you on Insider, or even Targeted at this late date, seen the "Coming Soon" toggle in Outlook lately? This is what enables the simplified ribbon Office-wide. I have not seen it in ages and am beginning to wonder if something about running Office this way is blocking it from appearing again.

    It's supposed to have been consistently available since 4Q2018 for Insider, but something beyond the build apparently determines its availability.

I tried disabling firewall since when searching the error in google, someone says its due to windows bloking some microsoft site and all. But even after doing that it never go past 51%. Can anyone please help me with the issue?

    I'm curious if anyone has had any experience with OfficeTool/OfficeToolPlus? Here's their website:
    otp.landian.vip/en-us/

    It seems like it's basically a Chinese copy-cat of OfficeRTool (or vise-versa?) with a surprisingly clean and polished GUI.

    Feedback... I performed a clean install of windows 10 build 1903, installed 0365, (monthly chanel), converted office from retail to volume successfully but KMS activation failed using the Office Rtool.

    I was able to activate it via the KMS_VL_ALL.
    Can't figure why rtool would fail using the default internal server.

    Is the internal kms server down???? After activating, rtool can reactivate O365

    I can't, the installation is not recognized by the OfficeRTool(ironic, since I installed it using OfficeRTool).

    Just installed 32bit/x86 Office 2019 ProPlus (monthly, 16.0.11425.20244) on 64bit Windows 10, 1809 (17763.437) by using OfficeRTool.
    OfficeRTool finds the installation, does Retail2VL-conversion and KMS-activates Office 2019 Proplus without problems.
    If KMS_VL_ALL finds it, it will activate Office. So you already should have a ready to use Office.
    If KMS_VL_ALL doesn't activate Office, then you have some problems with your system (antivirus interfering?, corrupt windows-/office-setup?).
