    I didn't try to activate MS Office 2013 up until I updated and now none of the previously working activators work...

    Go into 'Settings' and change the Bypass Method.

    I only want to use SECO injection...

    Does the official SECO Injector work for MS Office 2013? It worked great for my Win8.1 but not Office 2013... Is there an extra line I need to add to activate Office 2013 along with Windows?

    So far you provided very diffuse info...:hmm:. The SECO Injector you're referring to is a KMS Emulator with already implemented Redirect Hook. So afaik it depends on a additional script for activation.

    The tool itself is definitely capable of activating Windows and Office 15.

    I downloaded SECO Injector and followed the instructions that I have re-written for the develop of this tool... It activated my Windows, but not my Office...

    OK, I just did that and I still cannot activate it. I think it is time we inform the community that it is no longer possible to activate Office 2013 on Windows 8.1. MS introduced a secret hardware lock. I'll cite you as someone who agrees.

    I performed full updates in Win8.1 and Office 2013 prior to activating with MTK and have no issues in VM. I may have to try on a couple other systems, but I am still activating fine so far.

    So installing Escrow Update 17025 should kill activation with what you have tried so far then correct?

    Even after you format and reinstall Windows 8.1 without the Escrow update - you can no longer activate Office 2013. A single installation of Escrow forever screws all you activations of Office 2013, no matter how many times you format and reinstall Windows 8.1.
