Microsoft Office 2016 or 2019 activation  [21.09.22]

Due to a change in the activation server, you may receive a message that the activation of Microsoft Office 2016 or 2019 is about to expire.

To renew the license, please proceed as follows:

1. Log in to ILIAS
2. If you are not yet a member of the course, first apply for membership
3. Then join the corresponding Office group
4. Then download the file ActivateOffice herunter
5. Execute this file with administrator rights (right mouse button) with an existing VPN connection

If you receive a message: The computer has been protected by Windows, then please click on "More information". Check whether "Universität Hohenheim" is listed as the publisher and then click on "Run anyway".

The Office license is always valid for 6 months and is automatically renewed when the VPN connection is established.

Older Microsoft Office versions (2013 etc.) can no longer be activated and must be replaced with a current version.

If you have any questions, please contact the IT-Service-Desk.
