Folks, I've read many issues regarding license modes, and I'd like to share my token of information. Beforehand, allow me to agree that this C2R version is dreaded and perhaps still experimental in non-cloud or non-mobile systems. What I managed to do was using the official removal tool, then extracting the OffScrubc2r.vbs script from that same package and running it, then manually deleting all leftover configuration files, especially those including the name "Office 2016" in: C:\ProgramData\regid.1991-06.com.microsoft to be absolutely sure it was clean. After installing the C2R version once again, I just opened one program of every different installation: Word (ProPlus), Visio and Project, and simply closed the sign in prompt, then clicked the "Enter Key" and closed it as well. Doing so shall make office detectable to any tool to convert it to VL. I ask you to please test and share the results. Hope this can be useful.
I used KMSpico portable, just install O2016, start some prog from it (e.g. word), don't put anything for key, just close prompt and prog, run KMSpico portable and it automatically converts to VL and activates.
Found another how-to for manually removing a C2R installation: (link) ht tp://support.office.com/en-us/article/manually-uninstall-Office-2013-or-Office-365-1d1110d5-75a4-4154-969e-4260ff29b232 Please remember, you cannot tamper with some license files, as they are created once and only referred to if not deleted. Best of luck.
Clean Win10 install, so upgrade to current build by Insider/Windows Update. KMSAuto Net 2015 v1.4.0 Portable.
in O16-C2R-Retail2Volume, go to x64 folder, start admin cmd in same folder and run cleanospp.exe report the output now in same cmd, run these commands: Code: set "_SLMGR=%SystemRoot%\System32\slmgr.vbs" cd /d "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Licenses16" now execute these commands one by one and check the output status Code: cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc client-issuance-bridge-office.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc client-issuance-root.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc client-issuance-root-bridge-test.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc client-issuance-stil.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc client-issuance-ul.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc client-issuance-ul-oob.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc pkeyconfig-office.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_KMS_Client-ppd.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_KMS_Client-ul.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_KMS_Client-ul-oob.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_MAK-pl.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_MAK-ppd.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_MAK-ul-oob.xrm-ms cscript //Nologo %_SLMGR% /ilc proplusVL_MAK-ul-phn.xrm-ms
@abbodi1406: Code: License file proplusVL_MAK-ul-phn.xrm-ms installed successfully. Similar 'successfully' output for all commands.
I see so the error is not license related now try some of KMS activators, if all failed then something not right or changed in insider build
Now when I open KMSAuto Net it says: Code: ===== Host: == Auto Host == Port: 1688 ===== Hello tinyb. Program is ready to work. ========================== === Your system is activated . === And activate button does nothing. When I run Word it asks for Product Key. Guess I need to wait for the official VL installer by Microsoft.
@ratzlefatz, how thats possible if my system is almost fresh, installed Win10 Tuesday (from scratch, not upgrade), upgraded to current Insider build yesterday, so today trying to install Office 16 for the first time.
