Step 1: Solution
Many times you might want to change the product key of Office suite installed in your system. It might be because your product key expired and you got a new one or it might be because you installed Office using pirated key and now you want to change the product key with a genuine one.
To change the product key you'll have to uninstall the Office suite from your system and then reinstall it.
But here is a small and simple tutorial which will help you in changing the product key without uninstalling the Office.
Change Office XP Product Key:
1. Open regedit and goto:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice10.0Registration
2. Under 'Registration' key, you'll see one or more GUID (Globally Unique IDentifiers) containing a combination of alphanumeric characters in following format:
{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
3. Select each key and look at 'ProductName' key in right-side pane. One GUID key will contain the version number of Office installed in your system 'Microsoft Office XP Professional Edition'.
4. Select that GUID key and delete following 2 registry entries from right-side pane:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
Free Microsoft Professional Product Key
5. Close registry editor and run any Office application e.g. word, excel, etc. It should prompt you to enter a new product key.
6. Enter the desired product key and click on OK. That's it.
Change Office 2003 Product Key:
1. Open regedit and goto:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice11.0Registration
2. Under 'Registration' key, you'll see one or more GUID (Globally Unique IDentifiers) containing a combination of alphanumeric characters in following format:
{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
3. Select each key and look at 'ProductName' key in right-side pane. One GUID key will contain the version number of Office installed in your system e.g. 'Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003'.
4. Select that GUID key and delete following 2 registry entries from right-side pane:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
5. Close registry editor and run any Office application e.g. word, excel, etc. It should prompt you to enter a new product key.
6. Enter the desired product key and click on OK. That's it.
Change Office 2007 Product Key:
1. Open regedit and goto:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice12.0Registration
2. Under 'Registration' key, you'll see one or more GUID (Globally Unique IDentifiers) containing a combination of alphanumeric characters in following format:
{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
3. Select each key and look at 'ProductName' key in right-side pane. One GUID key will contain the version number of Office installed in your system 'Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2007'.
4. Select that GUID key and delete following 2 registry entries from right-side pane:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
5. Close registry editor and run any Office application e.g. word, excel, etc. It should prompt you to enter a new product key.
6. Enter the desired product key and click on OK. That's it.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
A. Take a backup of 'Registration' key before deleting the registry entries from right-side pane, so that in case the new product key doesnt work you can restore the previous key without any problem. To take backup right-click on 'Registration' key and select 'Export'.
B. If you are a x64 bit Windows user, then the key location will be different in registry. Please check following paths:
Office XP:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftOffice10.0
Office 2003:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftOffice11.0
Office 2007:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftOffice12.0
