    Hi everyone!

    I have been reading around on this forum for the last few hours but still I am slightly confused.

    I have downloaded SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2013_64Bit_English_MLF_X18-55297.

    The following information is included in a text file in the download :


    MICROSOFT.OFFICE.PROFESSIONAL.PLUS.2013.X64.VOLUME.ENGLISH.DVD-MSVLSC RELEASE DATE: 10/24/2012 BUILD: 15.0.4420.1017 FILE: SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2013_64Bit_English_MLF_X18-55297.ISO SIZE: 851,449,856 byte SHA-1: 774120F3A5F36B65545864D2A40B927F13B19A94 MD5: 125BAD01818BC84CCC30F5FE03ABD947 CRC: 13E338D5 NOTE: this original MLF image. MLF - Microsoft Licensing Fulfillment MSVLSC - Microsoft Volume Licensing Service Center. 10|31|2012 -=packed by W.Z.T=-

    From what I can see this is a VL edition and therefore is able to be activated via KMS.

    Can anyone tell me which is the best KMS to use in order to activate the above version; Also
    am I right in my understanding that I do not need a Product Key as VL have the product
    key already included within the installation?

    Thank you in advance to anyone that can help me!

    Yes, you're right. Just install and use this command in CMD (with Admin rights):
    Code:
    cd /D "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office15"
    cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:lunar21.no-ip.org
    cscript ospp.vbs /act

    The mentioned host (lunar21.no-ip.org) is offline atm. Try
    Code:
    kms.shmtu.edu.cn
    instead.

    thank you very much!
    didn't know why i couldn't activate office (ERROR CODE: 0x8007007B) on one of my PC with local kms server when on other it worked with no problem. Have been hitting the wall for 2 days with no idea. Server pointed by you worked like a charm
