Office Activation Command by Omman

Office 2021

Method 1: Using my command line

Step 1.1: Open cmd program with administrator rights.

• First, you need to open cmd in the admin mode, then run all commands below one by one.

Step 1.2: Get into the Office directory in cmd.

• For x86 and x64

cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16
cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16

• If you install your Office in the ProgramFiles folder, the Office directory depends on the architecture of your OS. If you are not sure of this issue, just run both of the commands above. One of them will be not executed and an error message will be printed on the screen.

Step 1.3: Install Office 2021 volume license.

for /f %x in ('dir /b ..\root\Licenses16\ProPlus2021VL_KMS*.xrm-ms') do cscript ospp.vbs /inslic:"..\root\Licenses16\%x"

• This step is required. You can not install the KMS client product key of Office without a volume license.

Step 1.4: Activate your Office using the KMS key.

• Make sure your device is connected to the internet, then run the following commands.

cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688
cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:6F7TH >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:FXYTK-NJJ8C-GB6DW-3DYQT-6F7TH
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:e8.us.to
cscript ospp.vbs /act

• If you see the error 0xC004F074, it means that your internet connection is unstable or the server is busy. Please make sure your device is online and try the command “act” again until you succeed.

Here is all the text you will get in the command prompt window

C:\Windows\system32>cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16
The system cannot find the path specified.

C:\Windows\system32>cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16

More information:

• Here is the KMS client key of Office 2021: FXYTK-NJJ8C-GB6DW-3DYQT-6F7TH.

• The Office 2021 KMS license is valid for 180 days only but it can be renewed automatically so you needn’t worry so much about the period.

• If you would have any questions or concerns, please leave your comments. I would be glad to explain in more details. Thank you so much for all your feedback and support!

thanks ^^

@kiddohack @Mahamed-Elredeny Most Welcome Kindly Follow me on https://github.com/devomman I try open for more sources.

I just reinstalled the system and none of the two commands work:
cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16
cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16

@KRESSDANIIL It will work only if you have the Office 2021 Pro Plus Version Installed not with 365 Version. Also Please Goto ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16 this folder manually to verify first the office has already installed or not. I hope it's clear now, Thanks.

@devomman Hi there. It hasnt worked for me either. I am running the script in Admin mode and I checked ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16 folder and its there.

@LucianPrime It will work only if you have the Office 2021 Pro Plus Version Installed not with Other Version. Also try activate with internet without internet it will not work if you have Office 2021 Pro Plus Version

@LucianPrime It will work only if you have the Office 2021 Pro Plus Version Installed not with Other Version. Also try activate with internet without internet it will not work if you have Office 2021 Pro Plus Version

Actually, I have a old installer of Office 365 (Setup-X64-365 ProPlus Retail), it is not cracked, it’s Microsoft genuine. And your code worked perfectly after installing Office.

its very good thanks

damn, i researched nearly 1 month trying to activate ltsc 2021 pro plus and finallyy found this and it worked!!!! no cap.

It worked, but am a bit confused...
I have a bunch of MAK keys from our Portal for this product and none of them worked.
These steps worked witht the KMS Key you have provided.
What is happening? Did I miss how MS is going on about these activations?

if the product expires, can i go again with this??

Yes. you just need a new KMS server to validate your licence.
The licence is valid for 180 days.

MAK and KMS are two diferent activation system.
Multiple Activation Key (MAK) activates systems on a one-time basis, using Microsoft's hosted activation.
The Key Management Service (KMS) activate systems on kms server outside Microsoft network.

Thank you so much brother, i was literally tried many methods nothing worked, but you helped me with your code ,
Thank you so much brother !

Right click run it as Administrator

if the product expires, can i go again with this??

Yes. you just need a new KMS server to validate your licence. The licence is valid for 180 days.

For that, should we need different cmd lines?
When you say different KMS server, how do we identify or differentiate that we are running on a different KMS server.?

Much appreciate your answer on this!!

Thanks man it work very very thanku
