    Hey guys.
    need a lil help here. recently downloaded office 2013 version SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2013w_sp1_w32_English_mlf_X19-35821
    Installed fine, turned off AV and firewall, disconnected internet as per instructions before useing MTK 2.5.2
    It returned the error <Cannot Activate because this product is incapable of KMS Activation.>
    I left everything alone, fiddled with nothing.
    Figured maybe id got a rogue version so went to office 2013 here to get office version SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2013_W32_English_MLF_X18-55138.ISO.

    Same error..
    what i doing wrong?
    Thanks guys in advance

    That ''error'' appears in case a Retail Office is found. CODY cutted the conversion part off long time ago.

    You'll either need to convert to Volume before install with MTKs channel changer or use KMSpico which should convert the installed Office and activate.

    You need to have Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 or 4.5 (Not 3.5) installed and the version of office needs to be a volume edition or converted to a volume edition..

    edit: The dog is quicker :D

    Was thinking about .NET likewise, but then the toolkit would react much more picky. Although most of the errors shown in the MTK thread are related to partially broken WMI answering nonsense :cool2:.
