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.

2. check the signature and the fingerprint for them

   pkgutil --check-signature Microsoft_Office_16.28.19081202_Installer.pkg
   pkgutil --check-signature Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer.pkg

3. comparison
   make sure their signature certificate have the same fingerprint

   bash-3.2$ pkgutil --check-signature Microsoft_Office_16.28.19081202_Installer.pkg
   + Package "Microsoft_Office_16.28.19081202_Installer.pkg":

可以翻译，请著名出处链接即可

233333 我确实爬到过那篇帖子，不过由于文风实在迥异，就没有把它们联系在一起，又因为我是Mojave，就没有看到2016版下的链接

嘻嘻嘻，我还是决定重复造一下轮子。原文拿走啦，谢谢大大

Hi, i tried a lot of times to install and crack the 2019 version but every time it ask me to buy a license. I tried to disable the SIP, to run as administrator in terminal, to run the serializer as root user, to uninstall or disable autoupdater, but every time is a failure. The Skip button is not visible at all and the program is always asking for a license. I followed every single pass described in all of internet's guides but no one was successfull. I don't know how to solve this problem.

@LoHacker95
have you tried uninstall and clean Office before you first crack?

I tried it really too much times.

So You have to install Office 2019 (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=525133) on Mojave with Gatekeeper disabled (Ihave also SIP disabled) you can use this app:https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/793-gatekeeper-toggler/ or terminal("sudo spctl --master-disable") and then restart your Macbook. Then install the serializer.pkg and you're able to use Office 2019 as you want...no activation request! Re-enable Gatekeeper and SIP if you want.

Thanks a lot. Working fine. I have installed 2019 version not asking for sign in.

I used brute force. Formatting the entire Mac finally I've installed successfully Office.

@LoHacker95 ohhhh... fine, that's ok, just a little funny

and in this case, i can basically infer that some cache/tmp file will not be clear while uninstall Office via some usual means

thank you a lot

Thank you very much

Hello, I have a legal copy of MS 2019. However, when I launch Excel I see the banner asking to activate office. If I use this serializer, would it change the activation key or does it keep the one that's legal? I just want to make sure, I'm not doing anything illegal.

Thanks in advance for any clarification on how this serializer works.

is there a way to activate this if i opened microsoft word before installing the crack ? I downloaded from app store and reinstalling option isn't there

@i0sa just remove it and then install again?

Hello, everything is working fine but is there a way to use OneNote ? I can't use it

Thank you

@i0sa

so hard,

1. the shortest way is brew cask uninstall microsoft-office, only if u install it via brew
2. tldr, but the official way is Uninstall Office for Mac
3. use some third-party apps, such as AppCleaner, iMyMac-PowerMyMac, etc.
4. the most complete, brute force, formatting disk like this guy

Hello, everything is working fine but is there a way to use OneNote ? I can't use it

just serialize, no any step

I can't create a new file without choosing cloud option

@YassYassYass

that's ready, just login OneDrive and direct add a new Notebooks

if you don't know how, see the details steps below

it doesn't work

@YassYassYass plz english for screenshot

English translation : "the authentication session has expired. Reconnect"

After I install the serializer, I can't find it anywhere. I searched through Alfred and Finder, can't find it. Where is the Serializer file supposed to be located? It's not in my Applications folder.
