Download and use Office 2016 for FREE without a product key
Office 2016 is the latest version of the Microsoft Office productivity suite, succeeding Office 2013. New features of Office 16 include the ability to manage and work with files in Microsoft OneDrive from the lock screen, a powerful search tool for support and commands called “Tell me” and co-authoring mode with users connected to Office Online.
Download original Office 2016 ISO
You can get the latest version of Microsoft Office here if you do not have it. Once your download is complete, you need to extract the original ISO image from the zip file. You will be left with a file named “SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2016_W32_English…” (W32 here in the filename refers to the 32-bit version if you download the 64-bit version, the filename will contain 64Bit instead). Although an ISO file is used to burn CD/DVD or a USB flash drive, you can install Office 2016 without burning it using 7-Zip or similar archive software utility. Here is what you get after extracting the ISO file.
Installing Microsoft Office 2016
Simply run the setup file (named setup.exe) to install Office on your Windows.
Note: By default, Office will be installed in “C:\Program Files”.
Done!
Activate all versions of Office 2016 for FREE permanently
1. Using KMS client key to activate your Office manually
First, you need to open command prompt with admin rights, then follow the instruction below step by step. Just copy/paste the commands and do not forget to hit Enter in order to execute them.
Step 1.1: Find the Office location in your Windows and move to there.
If you install your Office in the ProgramFiles folder, the path will be “%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16” or “%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16”. It depends on the architecture of the Windows OS you are using. If you are not sure of this issue, don’t worry, just run both of the commands above. One of them will be not executed and an error message will be printed on the screen.
cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16
cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16
Step 1.2: Convert your Office to volume version if you are using retail one.
If your Office is got from Microsoft, this step is required. On the contrary, if you install Office from a Volume ISO file, this is optional so just skip it if you want.
for /f %x in ('dir /b ..\root\Licenses16\proplusvl_kms*.xrm-ms') do cscript ospp.vbs /inslic:"..\root\Licenses16\%x"
Step 1.3: Install Office client key and activate your Office.
Make sure your PC is connected to the internet, then run the following command.
cscript ospp.vbs /inpkey:XQNVK-8JYDB-WJ9W3-YJ8YR-WFG99
cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:BTDRB >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:KHGM9 >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:CPQVG >nul
cscript ospp.vbs /sethst:107.175.77.7
cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1688
cscript ospp.vbs /act
If you see the error 0xC004F074, it means that your internet connection is unstable or the server is busy. Please make sure your device is online and try the command “act” again until you succeed.
Here is all the text you will get in the command prompt window.
C:\Windows\system32>cd /d %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16>cd /d %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16
The system cannot find the path specified.

I just want to thank u for everything on this site. THANK YOU! u are brilliant!
ok its good
Thank you so much! First method is fast and easy to follow.
Solved my every problem…Thank You
Thanks! I lost access to my previous Office Professional Plus 2016 HUP and was highly reluctant to pay just to get it again (might have been different if I wanted to upgrade then it’ll be perfectly fair to pay). Worked a treat.
Thank You 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Does it work with Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (build 7601)?
Worked like a magic!!thanks
thank you.. it help me alot!
it looks like the script is calling your website for the key. So you are circumnavigating MS’s KMS repository Correct? Yeah, that’s not a great idea. So, you have a copy of office that you didn’t pay for, and as long as it checks in with your website its fine. This is really a morale issue here. Dont get caught.
very awesome!
perfectly work and now i have a activated office
thank you so much 😀
My antivirus software found a threat in the code that you have used to activate Office and deleted the 1click.cmd file immediately. Why?
thats the same thing from bit.ly/office2016txt
thanks sir
