is it working on Cataline too?

@nyamkaknight yep, see:

https://gist.github.com/zthxxx/9ddc171d00df98cbf8b4b0d8469ce90a#gistcomment-3060348

How do I uninstall from my system? I do not want to leave it installed on my mac.

Thank you so much! I'm using Catalina, and it works amazing! I finally can open word documents in my mac!

@zthxxx that’s the thing, I go in to /library and find all files com.microsoft and deleted them... even then, same issue :(

same problem 😢

@zthxxx that’s the thing, I go in to /library and find all files com.microsoft and deleted them... even then, same issue :(

same problem 😢

Finally I've found the solution

Step 1: Download the license removal tool from Microsoft (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=849815) and install it to remove existing license.
Step 2: Reinstall Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer.pkg downloaded from this gist (https://gist.github.com/zthxxx/9ddc171d00df98cbf8b4b0d8469ce90a/raw/Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer.pkg)
Step 3: Enable Launch Agent com.microsoft.office.licensingV2.helper which I disabled before in App Cleaner & Uninstaller app

Step 4: Open Office.

p/s: you can disable com.microsoft.office.licensingV2.helper in step 3 after step 4 successful, but remember to do all steps when no license found error occur.

Hope to help everyone.
