I tried the mso.dll/patch trick for Office (Word) 2007 via the Deioncube site. I thought I finally had a working Word, but then it went into RF mode recently after quite a while of working just fine, so it failed. I tried KMS_VL_ALL, Microsoft/Office 2010 Toolkit(s) and the like to activate Office (Word) 2010, but after some time, it too went into RF mode. It failed. I tried 2013+. It failed, 'cause it kept lagging too much for me to use long enough to see if it would go into RF mode. I bought a legit standalone copy of Word 2021 from the Microsoft Store, but it either lagged nonstop or opened my document in reduced functionality mode, so chuck that up to a failure. I have tried time and time again to have a working, functioning Word processor, but after X amount of time, it always reverts to reduced functionality in the middle of working (when typing, when using find/replace, you name it). I tried reinstalling fresh and all just now, and now it quickly goes into RF mode. I have tried chkdsk, sfc /scannow, memory/disk diagnostics on bootup...all of that comes out just fine. My computer runs clean like a whistle. I have used countless clean, legit ISOs from the tools here/Internet Archive, and each and every one ends up going into RF mode. I'm at my wits end here. All I wanted was to work on a project with Word, then uninstall it once I was done. Do I really have to reinstall my OS just to do this? Is there anything I can do, or should I just hang up my literary aspirations? I'm a complete noob when it comes to computers - all I'm looking for is a functional Word. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. I hope you had a happy Christmas and will have a great new year.
I ran all the scripts just to be safe, and all came up successful. So I just install, for example, Office 2010 PP and activate it accordingly....?
Office 2010 and later > KMS activate is the easiest way. KMS_VL_ALL - Smart Activation Script KMS-VL-ALL - Online/Offline KMS Activator for Microsoft Products KissKMS 2.8.0 - KMS Server App (Android) Emulated KMS Servers on non-Windows platforms Tool Ghost KMS (TGK v9.0.7) + TGKn v5.15 (Nano Edition) Microsoft Toolkit [Continued] (there is Office Starter 2010, a simplified OEM version if that works for you as well)
I used KMS_VL_ALL, it still went into RF mode on me after a while. I used Auto_Renewal first, but before then, I checked and it said it was already activated. Should I remove the local emulator?
You can keep it this way if you like: Could you run and post: Code: [8] Check Activation Status [vbs] [9] Check Activation Status [wmi] Problems started with Office 2007 yes? Could you post exact mod mso.dll > send link in PM How you installed and activated. Serial you used with O2007
If it were that easy for me, I wouldn't be here. Anyways, I tried PM'ing you, but it said you limit those who can see your profile....
I've always been using volume version, though. Never retail. Like I said, I follow every step of the process by the letter. I get the VL ISO, I use the serial/activation method/etc provided, I start up Word (the only part of Office I need), I open a document, I work on it, it slips into reduced functionality....I thought I finally had a stable, working copy of Office (Word) going recently, but nope. The past day or so, after quite a while of leading me on with it working like a charm - poof! RF mode happens. Now I'm back at square one, and I've been spending quite a long time dealing with this. If I knew it would be this hard, I would never have tried to get into writing. I'd have just found another hobby.
