Office 365 Home and Personal Licensing and Activation Improvements

Since launching Office 365 to consumers, we have heard feedback from customers about the challenges in installing and using their office subscription across multiple devices. The first step in addressing this issue happened in October 2018, increasing a single user’s device limits to five (meaning they can concurrently use five devices) for Office 365 Home and Office 365 Personal. Our next step in simplifying use across multiple devices will streamline the activation of a user’s device.

Beginning in May, we rolled out the following changes to customers on PCs, followed by Mac devices in July.

For customers, here’s what stays the same:

Sign in to activate Office: Users will continue to sign in to activate Office on their devices. When single sign-on is enabled, Office detects the user’s credentials and activates Office automatically.

Sign-in limits: Users will be able to install Office 365 on all their devices and be signed in to five at the same time. This includes any combination of PCs, Macs, tablets, or phones.

It's important to stay signed in while you use Office on your device. This is what keeps your Office installation activated and ready to use.

Here are the changes that you may notice:

No more prompts to deactivate: Users can install Office on a new device without being prompted to deactivate Office on another device.

Automatic sign-out: When a user reaches the sign-in limit (five devices), instead of being prompted to deactivate, the user will be automatically signed out of Office on the device where Office has been least recently used. The next time the user starts Office on that device, the user will be prompted to sign in to activate Office.

Having trouble activation Office 365

Error 0x8004FC12 when activating Office 2013 or Office 365

First, run the System File Checker.

Use the System File Checker to run the sfc /scannow command to scan
all protected system files and replace the incorrect versions with the
correct Microsoft versions. Click on your operating system below and
follow the steps to run the System File Checker.

For a Windows 7 PC

Click Start > All Programs > Accessories, and then right-click Command Prompt and choose Run as administrator.

In the command prompt, type sfc /scannow and press Enter.

When the system scan is complete, try to install Office again.

For a Windows 8 PC

Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Search.)

Enter command prompt in the search box.

In the list of results, swipe down on or right-click Command Prompt, and then tap or click Run as administrator.

In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type sfc /scannow press Enter.

When the system scan is complete, try to install Office again.

If you ran the System File Checker and you're still having the same
problem, you can try performing a Reset or a Reinstall of Windows. You

Office 365 activation error after big Win 10 update

We appreciate your response, Keith. We suggest that you update Office 365 and see if it'll make a difference. You can simply do it by opening any Office 365 applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint). Here are the steps on how to do so:

Open Office app, then click on File.

Look for Account, then click on Update.

Once done, restart your computer.

We're looking forward to your feedback.
