I have to take a slightly different route.
1. Appwiz.cpl
2. locate the Project Install
3. right click and change install
4. Select Enter Product Key
5. Profit!
Thank you!!
Did not work for me as well
Thanks still Ross
Thanks Ross its work, you give solution more quickly than Microsoft support.
That did not work for me too :(
I just had another one of these that this solution did work for. I am sorry to hear yours was apparently a different issue?
Or you could just right-click on any of the Office components (e.g., Excel, Outlook, Word, etc.) and select "Run as Administrator." The activation should work after that.
That worked great, thanks Ross!
Hi rbrasseau :)
That did not work for me... but others can try and see if it works for them.
Thanks for the suggestion.
