You might have wondered why licensing Retail versions of Microsoft Office 2016 on Windows has become so cumbersome and clunky and confusing? Why does Microsoft force a login to install and activate Office? Why is this service so bad at showing information and handling more than one installation? If fact, if you have more than one retail copy of Office to install and activate on the same account, you’re in for serious confusion. I can’t answer all these questions, but I’ll show you how to fix this mess so you can install Office and move on.
I have been out of the OEM pre-installation game for quite some time now so it’s hard sometimes to get access to new versions of OEM Microsoft product and have the time look them over. Recently, I was overjoyed to have access to the pre-load tools and disks for Windows Millennium Edition (supposedly the last in this line) and Windows 2000 Pro.
