Outlookspy License Key

broken image


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.

How can I detect if Office is licensed with a volume license key? Take a look at the How to check the activation type and status of Office 2010 installations article. You can parse the output text and detect the type of activation key. If you have a license key for MS Office 2016, enter it on the text box to finish the installation. If you do not have a product key, or it's the first time to install Office 2016 on your computer, you may need to buy an activation key for your Office Program. You can purchase the Office 2016 product key from Microsoft.com.

Note: World of warcraft wrath of the lich king download free. 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.

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.
