    if anyone doesnt want to deal with re-activating off 2013, you can do an upgrade of win 8 to 8.1. Off 2013 dont get touched.:D

    oh btw i dont know wtf is virus defender, could be a song :vertag: or a malware:smokecowboy:

    Currently there is a Beta program with very good results on backup and restore for Windows 8.1 and Office 2013...
    when developer is ready I'm sure it will be available...

    Hey guys! So my situation is that I had an Office 2013 activation backed up through Advanced Tokens Manager on Windows 8. Can I install 8.1 RTM, then install Office 2013, and then restore the activation from Advanced Tokens Manager, or will I have to go through the Skype phone method again to obtain a brand new key?

    however you can activate off 2013 is fine dude, better use a Mak , retail....not kms , not sure if that is working yet on 8.1 to activate off2013.
    As long as you activate off 13, upgrade to 8.1 the off13 will remain activated

    I don't actually have a microphone connected to this computer... should I connect one? I didn't think it was necessary if you're using just the keypad.

    It worked when I connected the mic! Thank you! Now, the manual back up solution where you copy a bunch of folders; can I use this to save activation and use it after I reinstall 8.1? I plan to reinstall my 8.1 as I've been fooling around with it a bit.

    I did a Win 8 RTM to Win 8.1 RTM, Office 2013 was installed & activated in Win 8 & after the upgrade Office was still installed & activated.
    It was installed w/ a legitimate key though.
