My Office Shows as "Unlicensed Product" — How to Reactivate (done)

Symptoms
When you open a Microsoft Office application such as Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, you may see a yellow or red banner at the top saying "Unlicensed Product" or "Product Activation Failed". Some features may be disabled, or the application may switch to read-only mode.

Why This Happens
This usually happens for one of the following reasons:

• A Windows or Office update has reset the activation status
• The product key was not entered correctly during setup
• Office was repaired or reinstalled without the key being entered again
• More than one version of Office is installed and causing a conflict

Solution

Step 1 — Re-enter Your Product Key
Start by entering your product key again:

• Open any Office application, such as Word
• Go to File > Account
• Select Change Product Key or Activate Product
• Enter your 25-character product key exactly as shown in your order details
• Follow the on-screen steps to complete activation

Step 2 — If Online Activation Fails, Use Telephone Activation
If online activation does not work, or you see a message saying the key has already been used, you can usually complete the process using telephone activation.

• Go to https://uk.getrenewedtech.com/activate
• Follow the step-by-step instructions
• No phone call is needed — the process is completed online
• You will receive a Confirmation ID to enter into the activation window

Step 3 — Remove Older Office Versions
If you have more than one version of Office installed, they can interfere with each other.

• Open Settings > Apps > Installed Apps
• Look for any older or unused versions of Microsoft Office
• Uninstall any version you no longer need
• Restart your computer
• Try activating the correct version again
