This I know. My question was concerning the different builds - 1001 vs. 1003. Since 1003 was released a few days ago I thought there should be an update for the versions already installed... Edit: I used MSI for installation and only installed Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook.
Today i have tried to use my VL keys with Office 2016 C2R installation which was converted to Volume. It didn't work. So if you are a volume user, you have to use VL version of office. Converted retails do not work
Could you please show its key type? Thanks. (I do no have Office 2016 Volume key. Now I am applying my Volume:MAK Windows 8.1 and Office 2013 to have a check.)
Just an idea: You could copy pidgen- and pkeyconfig-files from VL to C2R: pidgenx.dll, pkeyconfig.companion.dll and pkeyconfig-office.xrm-ms pidgenx.dll and pkeyconfig-office.xrm-ms are identical. The difference is in pkeyconfig.companion.dll They are located in: Code: C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE16\Office Setup Controller And then try to enter VL-MAK key in C2R and see if it will be accepted. I didn't have a MAK key, so its just a guess that this may work.
No problem with me. Here is the result for Office 2013 C2R Project Pro Retail + the following 4 Volume:MAK Certificates + Volume:MAK Key ProjectProVL_MAK-pl.xrm-ms ProjectProVL_MAK-ppd.xrm-ms ProjectProVL_MAK-ul-oob.xrm-ms ProjectProVL_MAK-ul-phn.xrm-ms Code: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ProjectProRetail - zh-tw] "UninstallString"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office 15\\ClientX64\\OfficeClickToRun.exe\" scenario=install scenariosubtype=uninstall baseurl=\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office 15\" platform=x64 version=15.0.4753.1003 culture=zh-tw productstoremove=ProjectProRetail_zh-tw_x-none " "ModifyPath"="\"C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office 15\\ClientX64\\OfficeClickToRun.exe\" scenario=Repair platform=x64 culture=zh-tw" "NoRepair"=dword:00000000 "NoRemove"=dword:00000000 "NoModify"=dword:00000000 "DisplayIcon"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office 15\\ClientX64\\OfficeClickToRun.exe" "DisplayName"="Microsoft Project Professional 2013 - zh-tw" "DisplayVersion"="15.0.4753.1003" "Publisher"="Microsoft Corporation" "InstallLocation"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office 15" Code: C:\windows\system32>cscript slmgr.vbs /ato ed34dc89-1c27-4ecd-8b2f-63d0f4cedc32 Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.8 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp. 1996-2006, 著作權所有,並保留一切權利 正在啟用 Office 15, OfficeProjectProVL_MAK edition (ed34dc89-1c27-4ecd-8b2f-63d0 f4cedc32) ... 產品已成功啟用。 Code: D:\Desktop>wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where (ApplicationID='0ff1ce15-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663' and PartialProductKey!=NULL) get ID,LicenseStatus,Name ,PartialProductKey,ProductKeyChannel /format:list ID=ed34dc89-1c27-4ecd-8b2f-63d0f4cedc32 LicenseStatus=1 Name=Office 15, OfficeProjectProVL_MAK edition PartialProductKey=QJYGB ProductKeyChannel=Volume:MAK Thank you for this precious opportunity.
If he converted C2R with O2016RTool then MAK*.xrm-ms certificate files are inserted, too. So they should already be active.
Maybe he did not use your tool. Wait for him and see how he had done with the conversion. Maybe Office 2016 changed? Oh, I had better find an Office 2016 Volume:MAK Key and see.
Thank you for testing. Your results are based on Office 2016 VL_KMS. Maybe VL_MAK acts different? And there is still the different "pkeyconfig.companion.dll". I'm curious to hear from cengizhan how its going using MAK.
i have used O16-C2R-Retail2Volume which was in this thread, not O2016RTool . i had forgetten to say that my office 2016 says that it is activated. but i didn't use any key and i can't use my own MAK key.
What version is your Office 2016 C2R? And is your key Office 2016 Volume:MAK? Or, could you please run the command with Command Prompt (Admin), and show the result: Code: wmic path SoftwareLicensingProduct where (ApplicationID='0ff1ce15-a989-479d-af46-f275c6370663' and PartialProductKey!=NULL) get ID,LicenseStatus,Name,PartialProductKey,ProductKeyChannel /format:list e.g. Code: ID=84832881-46ef-4124-8abc-eb493cdcf78e LicenseStatus=2 Name=Office 16, Office16ProPlusMSDNR_Retail edition PartialProductKey=R3K7C ProductKeyChannel=Retail
