Hello,

I recently installed my Microsoft License, however, I have been trying to use Word, PowerPoint and Excel but appears a warning sign saying "This copy of Microsoft Office is not activated". I have been trying to activate it from internet using keys, but I can not find any key for Windows 11 Home.

    These are Office 365 product keys - not Windows Home ones.

    Hi Renzo,

    Thanks for your post. If Office activation fails, you'll see Unlicensed Product or Non-commercial use / Unlicensed Product in the title bar of your Office apps, and most features of Office are disabled. To restore all features of Office, you'll need to fix the problem that's causing activation to fail.

    Step 1: Sign in to Office with the right account

    If Office asks you to sign in, enter the account you used to buy Office. You'll see "We couldn't find any Office products" if you use the wrong address.

    Try this: Sign in to Office

    Step 2: Check for multiple copies of Office

    You may not realize you have more than one copy installed. Having two installs can cause activation conflicts.

    Try this: Check for multiple copies of Office

    Step 3: Check your subscription status

    If your subscription has expired, you'll see "We couldn't find any Office products." Renew your subscription to use Microsoft 365.

    Try this: Check your subscription status

    Step 4: Troubleshoot activation

    If Office still won't activate, choose your Office version for additional troubleshooting help.

    Microsoft 365

    Office 2021, 2019 and Office 2016

    Office 2013

    Best Regards,

    Ian Xue
