Hi All,

We recently downloaded the

Microsoft Office PRO Plus 2021 Retail Version 2108 Build 14326.2 but the KMS_VL_ALL_AIO.cmd is not included in the Activator folder.
Tried to check hidden folders but couldn't find it.

Office is requesting an activation key by November 7th.

Thanks,

Search on google for kms in github.
 
If you look in your quarantine folder of your A/V you should be able to restore the KMS file. Don't forget to whitelist KMS (or trust) whatever syntax your A/V uses so you can reactivate Office at the end of the 180 day activation period.
 
I'm not sure it goes with Office 2021. You need to download it separately. Although I'm not sure it will work on its own. I use something else.
 
Why not just exclude the drive or folder from the virus and threat protection, once set you never have to worry about this issue again.........

Have the drive(s) or folder(s) you're running this from been excluded from windows virus and threat protection.?

Example of my exclusions right after a new windows install.
I take these actions fist before I do anything else.

1 Select Windows Security
2 Select Virus and threat protection
3 Select Manage settings
4 Select Add or remove exclusions
5 Click Add an exclusion and click folder
6 Select the Drive or Folder you wish to exclude.
7 repeat #6 until you set all the exclusions per your desire.

In my case the Downloads folder and the drives I work with the patched hacked, or reg files and I also exclude the torrent downloads folder as well.

I also insert my USB and exclude it as well otherwise you may discover some files were removed without prompting you and cause crashes, faulty app performance and or other issues.

I am thinking this suggestion may help :)

Hey man. You seem to know what youre talking about. I'm kinda a noob with this and having an issue.

Windows 11.

I mount the "ProPlus2021Retail", then click the "Setup" and let it install. It finishes and I close the installer window. Then go into the "Activator" folder and run "KMS_VL_ALL_AIO" in admin mode. Then I click "1" and wait for it to display the message, then close it. I restart my pc, but when I tun it back on and load up Word, it still asks for a Product Key and says I'm on a timer.

I did everything right. What's going on?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
 
No dude (I love that word :)) you did NOT everything right. Why? Because you CAN NOT activate Retail version of Office. As you said: "I mount the "ProPlus2021Retail".... You need Volume version of Office to activate with KMS. ;);):cool::cool: OR convert Retail to Volume. :)

Ok. This was the version in the first one I found on TPB. Where should I download the correct version?

Dude can you read on picture. Volume or Enterprise VERSION????? I prefer 365 Beta channel with Mondo. Then you chose to install appropriate license from the menu above in the image. I can't make new picture because I already have Office install.
