I suggested Office ToolKit 2.3 ALPHA R8 since it worked fine to activate Microsoft Office 2013 and i don't like to suggest non-tested versions without first knowing if they will work or not, but I can bet that newer versions will work as well if anyone can confirm that?. Also I will appreciate if anyone can take me in the right direction to where I can download the latest version of "Office ToolKit". Thank You.
You are right, letting it automatically activate is the best choice however office can be activated 2013 times if I'm not mistaken and i can say many people will give a try which will lead to exhausting the available activations. My guide may be irrelevant but i works for activating Office 2013, the KMS PID I to use with office if you set one and install the AutoKMS it will not activate office. On addition AutoKMS didn't work when i first gave it a try, that is why you have to use MultiKMS it had office activated since first try. Everyone knows what OSPP does and that is not a secret, this guide is to let everyone know that there is another way to activate it using the Office 2010 & windows 7 KMS activators.
It doesn't work without a Internet Connection, so it doesn't use the local kms. It activates normally over the Internet at Microsoft.
Mrx47 you are 100% right, i forgot to disable mi NIC Card, and yes it doesn't work. I guess there is no point on keeping this thread open, could a admin close it. Thank You.
The Install and Uninstall buttons for MultiKMS are greyed out for me. Any suggestions? EDIT: Got it working. I had to uninstall AutoKMS first (it was installed for 2010). Afterwards, I had to change the product key from Word > File > Account > Change product key. Make sure to uncheck activation online. Then I followed the steps, and it activated right away.

Heya guys! So, the activation worked great for me. But I'm wondering, is it safe to log in the office 2013 server to use the other capcities? It would be great if someone knew, and told me, thank you! By the way, to change the key, just run the Installer, and choose the "Change key" feature. I had to do this, because the other key I had did not work. Cheers, Peace. -Phenix200 EDIT: So, I had to change the Key because the older one reached the installation limit. That means that this method DOES use the internet to activate the product, and so, no point at doing everything you told us. However, I do hope it does not activate it online.

You have to run the ZWT emulator in another PC/VM & connect in via LAN. Also yo have to install the GVLK key. Office 2013 Preview can't be activated via KMS if the response comes from 127.0.0.1 (MS fixes that).
I've activated Office 2013 successfully. Screen shot below. Two problems after that: 1. Update option is not available. 2. Getting below error while opening Excel 2007 files. I am sure there is no problem with disk space/memory and temp folder. I am running Office 2013 (x64) on Windows 8 (x64). Please help!!!
