Install and activate Office 2019 for FREE legally using Volume license
Posted by Always Smile in Microsoft Software Products | Last updated on January 23, 2020 Sticky

After a series of preview versions, Microsoft finally came out with an official version of Office
2019. It is the stable one, this means you can download and use it right now without worrying
about fatal errors which you have gotten in beta versions before. However, I regret to inform
that according to the disclosures, Microsoft Office 2019 only works on Windows 10. So if you
are using Windows 8.1 or older versions, you will not be able to install it. Honestly, I hate what
Microsoft have done to force users to use Windows 10. And I think Office 2016 is still a good
choice for casual users at the moment.

How to download Office 2019 from Microsoft homepage

If you have an Office 365 subscription, your Office will be upgraded to the latest version
automatically without doing anything. However, if you are using Office 2016 or earlier versions,
to make sure that Office 2019 will work normally, please uninstall your old version of Office
completely before starting a new installation. If you do not have Office 2019 already, just go
here to get official download link from Microsoft homepage and select the version you want.

Installing Office 2019 without a product key

After the download process is complete, you will get an image file. Just open it then run the
setup file to install Office 2019 on your PC.

Open Office 2019 setup file

UAC alert

This may take a while, please wait.

11/7/2020 Install and activate Office 2019 for FREE legally using Volume license

Upon successful installation, you can open any Office program to verify some basic
information.

Just skip the “enter product key” window by clicking close button at the top right corner.

Bypass “Enter your product key” modal

Accept Microsoft license agreement

And as you can see, I am using Office Professional Plus 2019 and the trial license will expire
in 7 days.

Important features are disabled

Activating Office 2019 using KMS license key

Method 1: Running commands one by one manually

Time needed: 1 minute.

Manually activate your Office with legal KMS product key.

1. Open command prompt in administrator mode.


First, you need to open command prompt with admin rights, then follow the instruction
below step by step. Just copy/paste the commands and do not forget to hit Enter in order
to execute them.

https://msguides.com/microsoft-software-products/office-2019.html 4/27
11/7/2020 Install and activate Office 2019 for FREE legally using Volume license

2. Open location of the Office installed on your PC

cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16
cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16

If you install your Office in the ProgramFiles folder, the path will be
“%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16” or “%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft
Office\Office16”. It depends on the architecture of the Windows OS you are using. If you
are not sure of this issue, don’t worry, just run both of the commands above. One of them
will be not executed and an error message will be printed on the screen.

11/7/2020 Install and activate Office 2019 for FREE legally using Volume license

3. Convert your retail license to volume one

nses16\ProPlus2019VL*.xrm-ms') do cscript ospp.vbs /inslic:"..\root\Licenses16\%x"

If your Office is got from Microsoft, this step is required. On the contrary, if you install
Office from a Volume ISO file, this is optional so just skip it if you want.

4. Activate your Office using KMS client key


Make sure your PC is connected to the internet, then run the following command.

https://msguides.com/microsoft-software-products/office-2019.html 6/27
11/7/2020 Install and activate Office 2019 for FREE legally using Volume license

cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688

cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:NMMKJ-6RK4F-KMJVX-8D9MJ-6MWKP
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:kms8.msguides.com
cscript ospp.vbs /act

Here is all the text you will get in the command prompt window.

C:\Windows\system32>cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16>cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft

Oh wow. I’ve been dealing with this problem for quite some time now. Thank you so much.
The method 1 worked perfectly right now Nov. 5, 2020. I skipped the nul part though because I
don’t have a product key installed and it just worked. I’ll be back after 180 days. 🙂

Well, I’m back. I checked my computer profile summary through Belarc Advisor and it states

5/4/2021. Thank you so much for the big help.

I will write it step by step so you need to read it very carefully.

1. Download ‘Belarc Advisor’ to view your computer profile summary. Find your Microsoft
Office product key by typing the Windows button + F then type ‘Microsoft Office’
2. After locating your product key, copy the last 5 letters/digits, then proceed to…
3. Step 1, 2 and 3 of the 1st Method. Then…
4. This is the crucial part L**O. Step 4 of the 1st Method. (Type the last 5 letters/digits of your
Microsoft Office product key on the space.)
cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688
cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:6MWKP >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:NMMKJ-6RK4F-KMJVX-8D9MJ-6MWKP
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:kms8.msguides.com
cscript ospp.vbs /act
*If there is no product key on the Belarc Advisory, it means that your Office is not licensed so it
doesn’t have a product key. If that’s the case, type this instead.
cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:NMMKJ-6RK4F-KMJVX-8D9MJ-6MWKP
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:kms8.msguides.com
cscript ospp.vbs /act
5. You’re done. Your Office is activated successfully for 180 days. After 180 days, you need to
repeat the steps I provided you but you have to include the ‘cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:6MWKP
>nul’ on your next activation. 🙂

It is showing that it is not the newest version

Rob
October 24, 2020 at 12:04 PM

First off this could be related 2 to different issues, 1 it could be related to the fact that you have
Home and Student version on your computer, and this activation script is for Professional Plus
2019, as well as the product key. I would also make sure to run each command individually
don’t use the script option #2 as it will not work for the office 2019 activation anymore.

First things first, make sure you don’t already have Office 2016 installed on your system, if you
do then you are going to have to remove it completely, if you did remove it, restart your
computer to make sure its completely removed and you are starting fresh. If you didn’t already
install Office 2019, then install it, and if it is installed, open up a command Prompt as admin
and follow the commands 1 by 1.

cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16
for /f %x in (‘dir /b ..\root\Licenses16\ProPlus2019VL*.xrm-ms’) do cscript ospp.vbs
/inslic:”..\root\Licenses16\%x”
cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688
cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:6MWKP >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:NMMKJ-6RK4F-KMJVX-8D9MJ-6MWKP
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:kms8.msguides.com
cscript ospp.vbs /act

You shouldn’t receive any errors while doing this, if you continue to get any errors and if its still
related to Office 2016 then your going to change 1 thing follow this command scripting instead

cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16
for /f %x in (‘dir /b ..\root\Licenses16\ProPlus2019VL*.xrm-ms’) do cscript ospp.vbs
/inslic:”..\root\Licenses16\%x”
cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688

cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:6MWKP >nul


cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:WFG99 >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:NMMKJ-6RK4F-KMJVX-8D9MJ-6MWKP
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:kms8.msguides.com
cscript ospp.vbs /act

By adding in the 1 extra command for cscript to remove your office 2016 product key which
should help now, also if it says everything completed with no errors, and it says Product
Activated Successfully and then you open word or another program and asks you to sign in
just click don’t sign in and gives you the famous product activation key window saying it isn’t
activated, just simply click on the upper right X to close that window only, it should now leave
you on the new document screen, just click on account and it should show product is activated
and it will work from there on out.
I hope this helps you let me know if it does thanks!!!

system?
