    The Office 2013 volume key cannot be used on the Office 2013 RTM downloaded iso, it says something like you need to run an Office 2013 Volume Edition. But I cannot find this volume edition for download anywhere. Anyone know how to get it, so we can use the volume key?? (rather than retail key)

    Change the RETAIL version to the VL one

    Open Command Prompt with Administrator Privileges Type following commands

    cd "%programfiles%\Microsoft Office\Office15"
    cscript OSPP.VBS /inpkey:VL Pkey
    cscript OSPP.VBS /dstatus

    Doesn't work, it says the key is invalid.

    I think the key needs to be activated using the phone method. How to change the RETAIL to VL, using phone activation?

    Yes I did. It says key is invalid... tried another key, which also didn't work. This is supposed to happen with online activation since the limit would have been reached by now, the only way is phone activation, so how to do phone activation to convert to VL?

    VL is activated by KMS server, Yet there is no valid activation for Office 2013 VL licence. Microsoft Office Tool 2.4 Beta 5 I have tried but its not activating.

    You need to change directory to the Office folder first.

    You can get most of the VL products from the following Chinese Forum:
