How to Reset or Change Microsoft Office 2007 Product License Key or Volume License Key (VLK)
You may need to alter or change Microsoft Office 2007 (aka 2007 Microsoft Office System programs and suites) product license key or volume license key (VLK) which also known as serial number or CD key. You can modify or change product key for 2007 Microsoft Office programs or suites by first uninstall or remove Microsoft Office and then reinstalling the business productivity suite. However, you can follow the following steps in order to reset and change the Microsoft Office 2007 product serial key without the need to uninstall or reinstall 2007 Office system suites.
Note: The following steps involve modification of registry key values, which may corrupt your Windows if done incorrectly. Backup registry first before performing the workaround.
- Close all Microsoft Office programs.
- Click on Start button, then click on Run.
- Type “regedit” (without quotes) in the Run text box, and click OK or press Enter.
- Locate and then click the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration
Inside, you will find another subkey that resembles the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{30120000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}
- Optional: Backup this registry branch by exporting the Registration subkey to a file, just in case the new product key does not work and you have to restore back the old product key. To export the registry, right click on the Registration subkey and click on Export, and follow the on-screen prompt to enter a file name for the registry file and choose a location to store it.
- Under the Registration subkey, there may be several Globally Unique Identifiers (GUID) subkey that contain a combination of alphanumeric characters. Each GUID is specific to a program that is installed on your computer.
If you find additional subkeys that reference Microsoft 12.0 registration, then click and open each GUID subkey to view and identify the Office product version by the ProductName registry entry in the right pane. For example:
ProductName=Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
- After you find the GUID subkey that contains your Office product or program which you want to remove the existing product license key or registration details, delete the following registry entries by right clicking on the registry entry in the GUID subkey, click Delete, and then click Yes:
• DigitalProductID
• ProductID - Exit Registry Editor.
- Run or open an Office application program, such as Microsoft Word or Excel or Outlook. Office 2007 will prompt you to enter a new 25-character product key.
- Type in the valid and genuine product key, and then click OK.
- Then when prompted to choose your preferred type of Microsoft Office 2007 installation, press on “Install Now”.
- Microsoft Office 2007 will be updated with new product CD key or volume license key, and ready for activation (if it’s a non-VLK serial) or use.
Note: If you’re having problem with your new Office 2007 product key, simply double click on the backup registry .reg file created at the optional step above to restore the registry settings of the Registration subkey so that the original value can be imported back to the registry.
You may need to reset to change Office 2007 product key with the above steps if you don’t want to uninstall or reinstall Microsoft Office 2007 again in many scenarios, such as you have just bought a retail version of Office 2007, or receive Office 2007 as a gift, or win MS Office 2007 as a prize, or just get your MSN product key for Office 2007, or having problem with activation process online or via phone, or unable to step-up or convert evaluation copy of Office 2007 to full-use version, or having problem with Office Genuine Advantage (OG) validation.
On the other hand, if you manage to find a valid and genuine volume license key or VLK, you can change the product key of Microsoft Office 2007 with the VLK serial in order to bypass the Office 2007 activation process (as Office 2007 still using WPA 1.0 where corporate users need not to activate), without the need of crack or hack for Office 2007, for full use for unlimited period as long as you’re not caught by OGA.
The 2007 Microsoft Office System product key changing instruction and step-by-step guide tutorial is applicable to Microsoft Office Basic 2007 all editions and all individual programs or suites of Microsoft Office 2007 including Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007, Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007, Microsoft Office Professional 2007, Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007, Microsoft Office Standard 2007, Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007, Microsoft Office Access 2007, Microsoft Office Excel 2007, Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007, Microsoft Office OneNote 2007, Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007, Microsoft Office Project Professional 2007, Microsoft Office Project Standard 2007, Microsoft Office Publisher 2007, Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007, Microsoft Office Visio Professional 2007, Microsoft Office Visio Standard 2007 and Microsoft Office Word 2007.

What edition are you using Lance? Did you install with a non-trial product key?
March 13th, 2008 01:56
Hi, I had a problem like Nicolas. But I uninstalled Office 2007, to attempt to reinstall it. However now it can’t be reinstalled. It says it’s getting error 1321 due to the proof.xml file (that I edited from alwaysinstalled to neverinstalled). Does anyone know what I can do to fix this so i can reinstall Office 2007? Thanks.

Hi Zeus. Yes, i used the serial M2QKF-KDQ4R-YHQKD-M4YYK-GPWVD to install my office 2007 ultimate. No problems.
March 11th, 2008 18:26
Tomtom, you said that office 2007 ultimate M2QKF-KDQ4R-YHQKD-M4YYK-GPWVD serial it worked and you tested before? And no problems?
March 11th, 2008 12:31
when i open up my microsoft word it says “modification is not allowed because the selection is locked” can someone help me with that??
March 11th, 2008 00:11
Hi, i hope this help you all. I’d like to explain more deeply the activation method that i described in other posts. With that method i managed to really activate my copy of office 2007. I use the Ultimate edition, but think this procedure is able to activate all the other editions that require activation (Home and Student, Standard, Small Business, Professional, and - if a non-VLK product key is used - Professional Plus and Enterprise) since it uses a patched version of the file mso.dll (which is the same for all editions!). Well, you have to follow these simple steps:
1) if you haven’t installed office 2007 yet, install your edition using a proper non-trial product key (see the list below)
2) go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12 and replace the file mso.dll with THIS ONE (after extracting it from the zip file)
3) start an office application and choose the phone activation method
4) fill all the confirmation code fields with 0, that is:
A 000000
B 000000
C 000000
D 000000
E 000000
F 000000
G 000000
and complete the activation!!!
5) close and restart the office application
6) if you will install sp1 you must repeat step 2 using THIS patched mso.dll
