Activate office on mac with license file

Activate MS Office 2019/2016 for macOS - Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer

Office 2019 above

Note that Office2019 DO NOT support activate via simple copy/paste plist license file which is the simplest way to activate Office 2016. Fortunately, you can also use the VL Serializer tool, just install Office 2019 and Serializer, then run Serializer to activate.

Ref

Activation Step

  1. DO NOT RUN OFFICE APP AFTER INSTALLED, but just install Office 2019 for macOS

    or install via brew:

    brew cask install microsoft-office
  2. manual download and install Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer.pkg

  3. run Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer and it will automatic activate Office 2019

  4. open the office app, completed.

Note

If you alaways been asked for 'Sign in' and still requires activation, please try to remove Office license files on a Mac. Here is the official download link for Microsoft_Office_License_Removal tool. (thanks for @lidroider's comment)
