    I've had volume office 2013 installed for a very long time with no problems. This morning when I open outlook, word, etc it says Product Activation Failed. Can someone please advise how to get this back to activated? I'm running Windows 10

    Maybe one of your real-time security software flagged-it, so you should launch activation again with MTK 2.6.2, and before restart your computer, make exclusion of C:\Windows\AutoKms folder from your real-time security and on-demand scanner, this should work.

    EDIT : We don't know which tool you've used to activate Office several month ago.

    This worked perfectly. This was the same activator I used in the past. I seen the older version in my quarantine folder while excluding the file for this new one. I'm back active and appreciate you taking the time to help me!!

    Just be sure to add it to your exclusion list (in your anti-virus) so that it does not randomly get picked off again in your next security scan. ;)
