From what I've seen, this is a very good way to save us money and seems to be working rather well. The only problem is, once we switched over to Office 2013 we have a problem. Office 2013 doesn't seem to have ANY way to find the product key for itself. Microsoft Office 2016 and 2013, like all versions of Office and most other programs you pay for, requires that you enter a unique product key during the installation. But besides this, there is another effective and guaranteed tool for you to find out product key after you forget or lost Office product key. And then activate Office with forgotten product key. It is called Product Key Finder. You don't need to know anything about command or complex programs. If you did not recieve either, check your PC's markings and double-check that the serial number is not included near the Windows product key sticker (I haven't seen this done in ages, but for a while it was common to have the office key on a smaller sticker next to the windows one).

I’ve got several licenses for Office and Outlook but I’m not sure which one which ones I’ve used and which ones are free.

How can I find out which license I’ve used for which computer and how can I change the key if needed?

While you could simply try one of your Product/License Keys and see if it gets accepted, it’s not a very sophisticated approach.

The proper method to determine or change the Product Key depends on your version of Office or Outlook. However, for either version there is no need to completely reinstall Office.

Note: Office 365 installations don’t require a license key as they activate automatically when you log on to Office with your Microsoft Account. The same applies to Office 2016 and Office 2019 licenses that are linked to your Microsoft Account.

Find license keys for Office 2010, Office 2013, Office 2016 and Office 2019 via a script

Office 2010 and later include a vbs-script which will reveal the last 5 characters of your Product Key. It’s pretty safe to state that these 5 characters would already be more than enough to find out which Product Key you have used (as you should already have safely stored the full Product Key code somewhere else together with your other license information).

You can run the vbs-file in the following way;

1. Open a command prompt. For instance via:
   • Start-> type: cmd
2. In the command prompt, type the following:
   • Office 2016/2019 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2016/2019 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice16OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2016/2019 (64-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2013 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2013 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice15OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2013 (64-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2010 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice14OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2010 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice14OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
   • Office 2010 (64-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
     cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice14OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
3. You should now get a screen with some license details such as the license name, type and the last 5 characters of the Product Key.

Office offers a scripted method to lookup your Product Key.

Changing the Product Key for Office 2010 / 2013 / 2016 / 2019

Changing the Product Key for msi-based installations of Office can be done directly from the Control Panel/Apps & Features or via a command line.

Product Keys for Click-to-Run based installations of Office can only be modified via the command line.

• Windows 10
  Start-> Settings-> Apps & Features
• Windows 7 and Windows 8
  Start-> Control Panel-> Uninstall a Program

Here, locate your Office application and press Modify or Change. Setup will now start with the option “Enter a Product Key” which allows you to enter a different product key.

To change the Product Key via a command line, you can use the same OSPP.VBS script as mentioned before. Instead of using the /dstatus switch, you must use the /inpkey:value switch where you should replace value for your Product Key.

Changing the Product Key for Office XP/2002 / 2003 / 2007

Changing the Product Key for Office 2007 or previous requires you to go into the Registry.

1. Browse to the following key:
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice<version>Registration
2. Now is a good point to make a backup of that key;
   Right click on the key, choose Export… and save the file to for instance your Desktop.
3. Expand the Registration key in the Registry and you’ll see one or more sub keys which contain a lot of characters between curly brackets: { and }
   Each sub key stands for an installed Office application.
   The proper name for this identifier string is called a “GUID”.
4. Click on the sub key to reveal its contents in the right pane.
   The SuitName key will reveal the name of the package that you have installed. If you have multiple GUID sub keys listed, you can use this key name to determine for which installation you’ll be changing the Product Key.
5. In the pane on the right, delete the following keys:
   • DigitalProductID
   • ProductID
6. Close the Registry and start Outlook (or any other Office application); you’ll now be prompted to fill in your Product Key and activate Office again.

Delete the DigitalProductID and ProductID key to reset your Product Key.

Determine the Product Key with a 3rd party tool

Determining the used Product Key when using Office 2007 or previous isn’t directly supported by Microsoft. However, you can use a little program called Magic Jelly Bean Keyfinder to find out your used Product Key. Simply install and run the application to find out the Product Key (note: during the installation, there will be a prompt to also install a sponsored application which you can choose not to install).

Another free application which you can use is Belarc Advisor. This application does a bit more thorough scan of your computer for which it generates a report that also includes license keys for several of your installed applications. If you are in a large corporate network, you might want to disconnect your network connection as it will also try to build a network map which may cause the application to appear to hang at the “checking the local network of this computer” stage.

This article applies to Office Home & Business, Office Professional, and individually purchased Office apps.

If you bought multiple copies of Office and used the same Install button to install Office on multiple PCs, activation fails on the other PCs. This happens because each Install button is associated with a unique product key that can only be installed on one PC. To fix this, you can change the product key for the other PCs where you installed Office.

Note: After you change your product key, we recommend that you create a list to manage the product keys that you've installed. To learn how, see Manage multiple one-time-purchase Office installs that use the same Microsoft account.

   Tips:

   • The default installation for Office is 32-bit but if your PC has more than 4 GB of RAM, you probably have 64-bit Windows.

   • If you don't know which Office version is installed, see What version of Office am I using? To check whether Windows is installed as 32 or 64 bits, see Which Windows operating system am I running?

6. Now start an Office app, such as Word, and select Next to activate Office over the Internet.

7. Repeat this process for each PC where activation is failing.
