So, I recently found this: https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts

Worked without any problems. Have fun.

The guide uses that for activation, but thanks for mentioning it!

Hey, thanks a lot for the super simple guide.

One question though, my gf has a mac for some reason, is there a simple way to get it on apple?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I only found this guide. It supports up to Office 2019 only (no Office 365 or 2021) and I'm not sure if it's the best method, but it's the only thing I found after searching far and wide.

There are volume licenses for Macs floating around - you install a package that contains the serial files, and then install Microsoft Office as normal. The MacSerialJunkie forum will have a more detailed guide

An update, there's this for Office 2021 and 365 as well.

Oh that's so helpful, thank you so much.

I'll try it out after work today and report back

A link to the MAS repo would be great

Great guide! A bit unrelated, but does anyone know of a similar guide for Windows 10/11? Thanks in advance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This guide is indeed for Windows 10 and 11.

Very helpful, thank you! ❤️

Is there a similar guide for activation on macOS?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You can check this out.

Is it possible to run Microsoft Office via Wine on Linux?

How safe is this guide? I’m not a tech person myself and am wondering if this opens or installs any backdoors for bad users to my system?

Also, would it be advised to not use this hacked office with an official Microsoft account (which is used for windows, Xbox and more)?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's safe and there's no known case of any suspended or hacked accounts because of this crack. I myself use this with my personal account and it has been smooth sailing for over a year and a half now.

Thank you! That’s relieving to hear!

I’d rather not expose my main system but am also happy to save some bucks on big brother Microsoft.
