    Updated Office to SP1, all the editions installed were verified just fine. I have to note that I use proper licensed software only though, i.e. no activators, no license tampers, no illegal volume licensing, etc...

    So

    Windows(R), ProfessionalWMC edition
    Office 15, OfficeO365ProPlusR_Subscription1 edition
    Office 15, OfficeProPlusMSDNR_Retail edition
    Office 15, OfficeProjectProMSDNR_Retail edition
    Office 15, OfficeVisioProMSDNR_Retail edition
    Office 15, OfficeO365HomePremR_Subscription4 edition
    Office 15, OfficeSPDFreeR_PrepidBypass edition

    Everything fine :D Problems are likely to occur to those who pirate, and that's normal that Microsoft secures the licensing system.

    My guess here: he's trying to activate any non-VL Office version ... :D :cool2:.

    Why did you even bother making that reply? Just to show everyone that your work and you didn't pirate? Did it make you happy to post that all is well for you while is not well for another?

    Thank you. I appreciate your input.

    Is there any update package for M$ Office Pro Plus 2013 SP1? Or just from Windows Update, if so, what are the files?

    One of the fixes:

    2919506 Can't hear the first few words that a callee speaks when they answer a call in Lync 2013 .

    Maybe considering the not easy on eye interface of office 2013, the first few words are not printable.

    Every test so far for me indicates that my systems are abnormal then, because all are functioning like your proper licensed software. I too, use licensed Office and Windows, but that is far beside the point and not used for these tests hehe

    It is applicable for any sku any channel en-us. For integration: extract to obtain MSPs, put them into the Updates folder of the media, done

    @ MonarchX

    Open CMD as Admin and input this:
    Code:
    wmic path softwarelicensingproduct where (description like '%OFFICE%') get name,description,licensestatus,graceperiodremaining >>C:\licenselog.txt
    Then post here the content of C:\licenselog.txt.

    From this we can see what type of product and license you have.

    If it worked with KMSPico, probably you installed a version NON-VL of Office that need to be converted to VL. KMSPico do this.

    Don't spread rumors before verifying. It isn't expected from such an old member.
