    Hi,

    Can we use Cody's Toolkit to activate Office? or is KMS_VL_ALL only applicable

    Current MTK 2.6 beta 1 doesn't detect Office 2016 C2R versions. codyqx4 said, that MTK will
    support Office 2016 only when real Volume License/msi-install versions become available.

    Office 2016 VL versions are expected to be scheduled by Microsoft on Oct, 01 (hopefully).

    Thanks bro, was just worried that KMS_VL_ALL would mess my W10 Activation. Can it be configured to activate Office only?

    KMS_VL_ALL detects windows as permanently activated and doesn't try to kms it.

    Do you the whole process?
    It's a series of commands, not one
    detect if KMS license exist for installed office
    get the ID of license to work with
    check the KMS license status, and if it's 1 re-activate (renew) it
    if not, check all other possible permanent licenses for same product ID
    if all other are not in use, install product key for KMS ID and activate it
    if you just mean checking the status of office, 3-Check-Activation-Status depend on registry to detect office ibstall path, then use ospp.vbs to display the status

    YES, O2016RTool installs both Volume License certificate files VL_KMS and VL_MAK.
    So you can use a VL_MAK key and Office will be activated.

    Best practice reminder: Be sure to un-install VL_KMS key afterwards.

    Manual uninstall VL_KMS-key:

    - Start command-prompt with admin rights / run as administrator.
    - Then enter each line followed by pressing (return):

    Windows is 64bit and 32bit/x86 Office "Professional Plus Full Suite" was installed
    Code:
    cd /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office16"
    cscript /nologo ospp.vbs /unpkey:WFG99
    
    Windows is 64bit and 64bit/x64 Office "Professional Plus Full Suite" was installed
    Windows is 32bit and 32bit/x86 Office "Professional Plus Full Suite" was installed
    Code:
    cd /d "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16"
    cscript /nologo ospp.vbs /unpkey:WFG99
    
    If there are other Office products installed (Visio, Project, Single Apps) then tell
    me which ones and I show you the corresponding key parts to enter for uninstall.

    Just to have a clean system. If you don't uninstall, it will be recognized as installed by
    Office Software Protection Platform and is shown in all status reports. The same goes
    for the Trial-Key (key part: BTDRB) if you install MSDN ISO Office Professional Retail.

    If you don't mind, then you can leave all keys installed side by side with each other.
    It won't disturb Office activation which is valid only for the last entered key. But it
    will be confusing if you look at the status reports.

    KMS VL All uses a lot of checking routines and will only activate any detected VL Win/Office (Smart activation). It won't touch your Windows activation friend.

    Indeed there was a big update to KMS VL All yesterday specifically addressing Office 2016 and further checking routines. abbodi post.

    Any tool that converts to VL and creates an autoKMS task, all in 1?

    @s1lave77,

    Due to click to run of MSDN Office 2016, Cody MTK 2.6B1 cannot detect MSDN Office ProPlus 2016. I ended using 02016RT tool to convert it to VL and activated office 2016. I believe activation by 02016RT tool is only short period may be 30 days. KMS VL ALL activation is 180 days. Either method, I need to create schedule task. Do you have a script to schedule KMS_VL_ALL to run before 180 days is up or guide me to MDL thread with schedule task script? Your help wold be much appreciate. If I used KMS_VL-ALL to activate Office Proplus 2016, will it affect Windows activation by Cody MTK? I need to re-install Windows 10 soon perhaps using KMS-VL-ALL to activate both Windows & Office 2016 may be more ideal. Absence of auto activation script for Windows & Office 2016, I just have to run KMS_VL-ALL on 179th day theoretically? Your help would be highly appreciated.
