Activation Script for Office 2013
I'm in the process of creating a script to activate office 2013, i already have a script for office 2010 so i created a duplicate and was just going to edit tweak that one. i have run into a standstil on how to set it up so i can enter a Activation Key then update it as the keys update. i can answer any question you need to better explain my question.
The 2010 Script looks like this.
cd\
cd windows\system32
cscript "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office14\ospp.vbs" /act
it looks like it is setup to activate without a given key. so i would like to make a script that uses a key

these are for 32bit office on 32bit and 64 bit machines.
64bit machine:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\ospprearm.exe"
cscript "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft office\office15\ospp.vbs" /act
32bit machine:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\ospprearm.exe"
cscript "c:\program files\microsoft office\office15\ospp.vbs" /act

we use kms also but due to sysprep office gets messed up sometimes. I place these lines in my post script to be sure office is activated to the KMS server
here is my post k2000 bat for a 64bit machine running 32 bit office with kms activation for both.

The command line to set the key is:
cscript "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\OSPP.VBS" /inpkey:<key goes here>
You need to run this before the ospp.vbs /act command.
We use KMS activation in our environment which makes activating Office much easier, since it will automatically activate after installation.

we also use KMS that activates them after install. however i have a couple stragglers that had theirs manually installed so i was going to create a script to activate all at once. - calenand 10 years ago

You can run OSPP.VBS /dstatus to query the activation status. I have a custom inventory rule setup to query for Windows activation so that we can find systems that have lost their KMS activation so you could do the same thing for Office activation. If you aren't familiar with the Volume Activation Management Tool then I would recommend checking it out, too:

It allows you to query computers and set their activation keys and activate remotely. - chucksteel 10 years ago-

this is for office 2010 not 2013 - SMal.tmcc 10 years ago

The download page says it's for 2010 but it's working for 2013 as well. - chucksteel 10 years ago

only difference is the path
...\Office14\... for 2010
...\Office15\... for 2013 - SMal.tmcc 10 years ago -
Oh right. I thought you were referring to the VAMT. Yes, the path needs to be for the correct version of Office. - chucksteel 10 years ago
