I use KMSpico (10.1.7 Portable or Installed) by Heldigard without any problems. It is simple, practical and effective for Windows 10 et Office 2016 Retail, then VLSC. I have not tried the other mentioned tools. KMSpico is not considered as a virus by KIS 2016 (ligitime) I use. However, Windows Defender not agree.
One thing to consider is that KMSpico and Microsoft Toolkit have been flagged as malware by MS and all the major antivirus vendors that are in MS's pocket. So far KMS_VL_ALL has not. I can't speak about KMSAuto Net Portable as I have never tried it. It is simple enough to exclude whichever one you are using but annoying when they get auto deleted without even telling you about it.
I have used a binary editor such as Ultraedit to substitute some characters in the message "This program cannot be run in DOS mode" which is near the beginning of the .exe file so that the .exe signature is changed. Many antivirus programs are confused by this and don't flag it.
Thanks that makes sense. I've installed 1001 which is running just fine and I expect Windows updates haven't updated Office to 1003 yet. I guess they'll release 1003 via updates at some point in the future - hopefully
With manual .cmd activation, can I receive updates for Office 2016??? How to activate Office automatic updates???
If you have installed Office 2016 on Windows 10, then updates are automatic else you need to set your Windows Update to receive your Office 2016 updates automatically.
Few queries about Manual KMS Activation Office 2016. 1. The 4 commands mentioned here...the commands are same for legal KMS activation, right? 2. If I activate Office 2016 with the mentioned KMS Host address...does it modifies anything on System & Office install? 3. Clear KMS Host command removes host address that was set in Step 1, right? 4. Once activation is successful...it will remain activated for 180 days even if host address is not online or taken down, m I right? 5. What infos are transferred for activation to host address? 6. Host address is not legal, right 7. I guess Office Volume install has default KMS key...can I use that key instead of the above mentioned key?
Nucleus, Thanxx for replying & links. I am checking the links now. But could you plzz reply the queries too?
