Hack to Activate Microsoft Office 2007 Evaluation Trial Version
Most suites or programs of Microsoft Office 2007 allows user to evaluate the product. The trial version of 2007 Microsoft Office system can be installed by using a 25-character trial product key available from Microsoft while you download the free Office software, and you can use the Microsoft Office 2007 suite or program with full functionality for 60 days.
You may have the Office 2007 CD and are able to install Office 2007 without entering product key. However, Office 2007 will work in reduced functionality mode, where it’s effectively just a viewer for Office documents. Beside, if you forget the trial product key, or don’t wish to register a Windows Live ID to get the trial key, here’s the trick to activate Office 2007, or more correctly, bypass the activation of Office 2007 60 days trial, and making the “trial” word disappear from the Office title at the top and suppress activation and trial expiry prompt.
Note that to use Microsoft Office 2007 beyond 60 days trial period, you need to purchase a valid license for it, available from Amazon
To use this hack to crack activation on Office 2007, you need to install Office 2007 without any serial number or product key. If you have installed Office 2007 with a product key or serial number, do the following to clean remove Office 2007 of product key:
- Close all Microsoft Office applications.
- Run Register Editor by clicking on Start -> Run, and then type “regedit” in the Open box and press Enter key.
- Navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration
Note that inside the registry key, there should be another subkey that resembles the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{91120000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
- If there is more than one registry entries or subkeys that reference Microsoft 12.0 registration, open up each subkey, and then identify the product by the ProductName value data until you locate the subkey for the product which you want to remove the existing product license key.
For example:
ProductName=Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
ProductName=Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 - Once found the correct registry subkey, delete the following values:
DigitalProductID
ProductID - Close Registry Editor.
Once Microsoft Office 2007 has been installed with no product key, proceed with the following steps:
- In Windows Explorer, brose to the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\
- Right click on Proof.XML file, select “Open With…” in the right click menu.
- In the “Open With” window, select Notepad to be used to open the XML file. In Vista, if you can’t see the Notepad option, simply double click the “Other Programs” to unhide it.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the Proof.XML to locate the following lines:
</Feature> <Feature Id=”SetupXmlFiles” Cost=”1248″>
<OptionRef Id=”AlwaysInstalled”/>
</Feature> - Change the AlwaysInsalled to neverInstalled so that the line looks like following:
<OptionRef Id=”neverInstalled”/>
- Save the Proof.xml file. In Windows Vista, you may need to take ownership and grant full access permission to yourself before able to modify the file.
- You can now launch Microsoft Office 2007 application such as Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook and etc without prompting for activation.
As usual, as it’s a hack, and before you purchase a valid product key for it, you won’t be able to AND can’t access any updates or Microsoft Office Online.
Note: The hack may work for 60 days only. To make this hack fully working, try to delete additional file below, probably has to be deleted every two months:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA\opa12.dat
Or,
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA (for Windows 7 and Vista)

Can’t make it work.
After about two weeks (yes, 2 weeks) since I purchased the Pc and installed MS Office, the system went into “locked mode”, where I can view everything, but can’t write or modify anything.
I use Windows Vista 64bit; I downloaded Proof_hack_automated_patcher_v2.2 but it can’t find ProductID anywhere (there isn’t one)
Proof are patched correctly; opa12.dat is created every time I launch an office application
Can you help me?
Thank you very much for your efforts

ALERT!!!
Hey guys the SP2 install screws this up. I had it running on W7 just fine, but I had automatic updates turned on. All at once it installed all SP2 updates and some security updates for Office 2007. With them installed the crack doesn’t work anymore. I can manually remove most updates buy the SP2 update I cannot unistall. Any thoughts? Is there a tool to bypass this?

Actaully I found out how to fix this.
Thanks to @Venkat
Reverse the change in Proof.XML in the following folder on XP.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en
Need to change neverInstalled to AlwaysInstalled. make sure you use Upper case A.
Then you should be able to uninstall it from AControl Panel->Add or Remove Programs
.
November 10th, 2009 11:05
Yeah, I can’t uninstall it from my computer. I have vista. Someone help!
November 10th, 2009 06:52
No registration file to be found. Found the Proof file but unable to save it after making changes. Attempts to save the proof after changing results in error telling me to make sure the path and file name are correct. I also gave myself ownership of the file but no change.
Using Vista.

add:
Word + excel working
over 60 days ago I installed the student version – then upgraded the trial to small business so had both on my system.
It seems my student trial is working (can use word/excel) however the SMall Business Trial is not – so cant use outlook and publisher.
Have checked all the original changes and they stand the same – have also tried deleting the OPA12.dat file – but it just reappears as soon as I try to open an office program.
November 5th, 2009 11:32
this also worked for me – but only for 4 days! Today programs open with no activation prompt BUT I cant use them. Anyone have a new fix for this? I’m guessing microsoft is playing catchup with the cracks. thanks.

I was able to uninstall after it locked up.

forget that, it’s still locked. bummer.
October 28th, 2009 08:31
I did the mods months ago and today I went to use Office and it was locked. Using Vista Home Premium. the script choked on msg.exe( missing in premium ) and I kept getting wierd char errors ( maybe from the cut/past from browser ) so I re-verified my orig mods as ok. I then went to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA and noticed OPA12.BAK and OPA12.dat had different dates. I copied the BAK —> .DAT and it works again My guess is to make a zip of these files after the mods and reextract then if the lock up occurs again.

Help, is there a hack for if you have Microsoft Office that comes with a computer or laptop? My subkey reads as {91120000-0031-0000Office etc}, not the same as above and there is no productID or to erase. Anyone?
October 26th, 2009 14:51
after 60 days all programs are locked
October 26th, 2009 09:03
Can you be fined or even go to jail if the company catches you doing this?
October 26th, 2009 06:23
I can’t get it to work, it still locks my program once I open it.
October 25th, 2009 23:50
it’s work. thanks a lot!
October 25th, 2009 15:05
if nothing works, you must be doing the wrong thing….everything went well with me.
October 25th, 2009 15:01
dude…u are a god…hell yeah!
October 24th, 2009 16:34
Thanks dude you rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 23rd, 2009 10:45
Thank you! This worked perfectly and was very straightforward!
October 22nd, 2009 22:50
To the people who can’t find opa12.dat – it’s there, you just need to show hidden folders. “Application Data” is a hidden folder in “All Users”.
October 22nd, 2009 13:46
OK guys if you are using 64bit version try this:
go to regedit->local machine->software->wow6432node->microsoft->office->12.0->Rgistration->{91120000-0031-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}
delete: DigitalProductID
ProductID
And make the changes in Proof.xml as mentioned
October 22nd, 2009 11:41
Remove the dat file like the instructions say it worked for me!
October 22nd, 2009 02:42
I have had the same problem. it suddenly stopped working after a while. I followed all the steps, and even tried deleteing the opa12.dat. that does not work, as it just recreates itself every time I open it.
Is there a way to fix this? I understand how to uninstall it, but that is a pain in the ass. I would rather just get the full-verson back.
October 21st, 2009 01:17
thanks its working thanks a lot
October 19th, 2009 21:25
doesn’t work for me (vista). even deleted the opa12.dat but it only keeps on recreating itself whenever i open an ofc application.

Worked fine, day one of doing this from the latest Trial installer on the MS website…
Note The Trial Installer is 500MB and is called Enterprise.exe
Meaning that this is successfull even todate!
if it doesnt work, read the STEPS AGAIN!!!
maybe you’ll do it right this time!
October 15th, 2009 22:54
too bad!!!
i have followed the steps
but it does not work
now i even cant unistall the microsoft office
so anyone can help me??
October 14th, 2009 14:43
Hey there,
Do not follow the steps above as they offer a temporary solution that works for a few days. This is not a crack, this is a temporary solution which makes everything more confusing.
October 14th, 2009 08:35

Still can’t use Office 7..
All functions are still locked, even after doing everything like the tutorial said..
October 13th, 2009 20:20
I tried copying the contents of Proof.XML, pasting into a new Notepad file in another location, changing from AlwaysInstalled to neverinstalled, and deleting the original file and pasting the new file in its place.
It still didn’t work …
Can anyone help me?
October 13th, 2009 17:11
I am very sorry, i just read Anhony Salin’s post and i think it worked.
October 13th, 2009 17:08
Hi, i am on windows vista and even by taking ownership of the proof.xml file (i used a take ownsership registry tool) i cant seem to modify it because it tells me the path to the file does not exist.
This is what i get:
Cannot create the C:\Program files(x86)\Common Files\ microsoft shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup controller\proof.en\proof.xml
make sure the path and file name are correct.
——————————————–
now honestly, i don’t understand what to do…
October 13th, 2009 07:54
This is me again, SandyHan. For the %temp% part of the manual uninstall, I was able to delete all but one file–but that file didn’t seem important, so I just let it go at that. Just in case it’s relevant.
HELP!! I’m really frustrated here!!
October 13th, 2009 07:52
Hi, I’m at my wit’s end and really hoping for help. Maybe I overlooked something.
I installed Office 2007–I think it was the Small Business Office 2007 version–and put in the product key for the trial since it required it, and Googled and found this webpage. Thank you! And I used the information to successfully change this from a trial version to a permanent version–or so I thought.
Well, Office 2007 as of a couple days ago won’t work except as a “reader.” That is, its menu options are grayed out. So I tried the other things suggested here, e.g., I tried EVERYTHING suggested above here in this webpage, PLUS, when that didn’t work for whatever reason, I tried the uninstalling option on your other webpage–the manual version that is.
Well, what happened was I manually deleted everything that I could find, pretty much I think, and then I went to the Add or Remove Programs section and Office 2007 wasn’t there anymore, so I thought, hmm, it was successfully uninstalled. (Mind you, I now remember that Business Contact Manager 2007, part of the package for me, was still there–I didn’t uninstall that. Was that the problem?)
So I went ahead and downloaded Small Business Office 2007, the same as before I think, and it asked for the product key, and I refused to give it, and I tried using 2007, and it’s still grayed out same as before I uninstalled.
What do I do now? Help!
October 12th, 2009 17:49
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Office 12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en Needs to be manually located by navigating through the Program Files in the drive in Windows Vista Ultimate and Windows 7. Otherwise, Windows will state that the file can not be located. Also, it is necessary to open up Notepad and paste the contents from Proof.xml into a new Notepad document. Delete the old Proof.xml and save the new Notepad document as Proof.xml on the desktop. Than drag it to the location where the old Proof.xml document once existed. Close out of all Windows and reboot. Than open up Office 2007 and enjoy!
October 11th, 2009 22:18
THE PATH TO BE TAKEN IS DIFFERENT IN WINDOWS 7.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Office 12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en is the path that needs to be taken. Worked for me.

Just an Update on my Previous Post…It worked for a Four Days Only. Today When I tried to open the Excel,”New Workbook” It would not let me write anything on it. It is opening in read only Mode for some reason.( Tried deleting opa12.dat with no luck)
I am now reinstalling It. Kindly Note I reverted the changes in Proof.XML to uninstall it.

October 6th, 2009 00:51
THANK YOU “doesnt last forever”! I followed the steps you recommended, and succesfully uninstalled word.
One point I would like to add is that the activation code I purchased would NOT work with it until I uninstalled/reinstalled it it – but now all is fine (if at a cost)!
October 4th, 2009 11:26
i was going to leave you all in the dark BUT!!
you can make it so it is 100% normal again
1. follow the same path that you did to the XML document…. replace it with the original one which ISNT screwed up:
2. go to C:/programdata/microsoft/OFFICE/DATA/
then delete both files
3. NOW microsoft (the multi million dollar national company you thought u could fool)NOW your computer will relize you have been screwing around and it will RE-CONFIGURE
4. you should be prompted again, now enter you 60 day trial code or phurcased code or a code off a code gen
5. it is now the way it originally was now u CAN unistall it
October 4th, 2009 11:15
i meant you CANNOT* unistall it or buy oit sorry… no can
October 4th, 2009 11:12
hey, i used this ages ago from a differnt place with similiar steps…. it doesnt last for ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey just wanted to say a big THANK YOU! Everything it’s clear and works perfectly and I really needed the 2007 version fully working for my studies but since I left Europe and went to South Africa I couldn’t purchase one!
(Honestly who would purchase a microsoft product aniway xp ) Thank you !!!
October 2nd, 2009 03:52
2 thumbs up worked like a charm. SO EASY TOO!
October 1st, 2009 12:49
sometimes, steps 4,5 which has “neverInstalled” doesnt work because it says you cant overwrite it. for this, you should save the “neverinsttaled” file to the desktop, then go to the XML file and switch them. You will need administrative access
October 1st, 2009 01:28
here is an automated code
one click install second click uninstall
SO if u did this guide and u want 2 uninstall it, use my patch here:
run it in first time, it’s make backup
&&& if he find that ur file alardy patched, it make ‘original file’ without change and save it as backup …. than run my program again ….
Made by ampy_dumpy
it’s took me 8-9 hour’s to make it work ….

Thanks!!
September 25th, 2009 02:47
Yeah it makes it where you don’t have to put in the product code, but it also makes it where you can’t change a single thing about your document. This is ridiculous. I’m just gonna use openoffice.
September 24th, 2009 05:43
I rather use freeware than office… I am going to try open office… it’s a 150 mb download, but I’ll try it!
September 24th, 2009 04:44
Hi, please help me. I did everything. Everything looks good and easy, BUT PROBLEM COMES in the 6.step. I CANT SAVE this new already created FILE.
I have Vista 
Thank for help.Petr
September 24th, 2009 01:21
I have completed all the hack steps but when I start Word I can not open a new document or edit and existing. Msg. displayed .
“This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”
Can anyone help that found this problem”
September 24th, 2009 01:09
Hack doesn’t work
I’m not a newbee but on step 5 I can’t find the values to delete. When I use the search I only find these values in the Windows reg. folder and felt I better not delete them.
Please help.
5. Once found the correct registry subkey, delete the following values:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
September 23rd, 2009 22:00
wow man… yu are a genius…. i think yu are an microsoft employeee…
September 22nd, 2009 20:19
Gday, I run vista and have microsoft office 2007 student. Can’t for the life of me figure this out. What is the Product ID and Digital Product ID? Are these values or letters? I also cant save or replace the notpad file neverinstalled? Any help out there?
Cheers,
Daniel
September 22nd, 2009 16:09
hi
I tried to hack 2007 and i got caught so i tried to delete the registration key in REGEDIT so now it comes out with this install thingy and it is annoying. I cant even delete it in the Add or Remove Programs thingy
September 22nd, 2009 09:17
I tried to do this hack. but once i get to the part where i need to search for this C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\ it doesnt come up. I dont really know what else to do. can you help?
September 22nd, 2009 03:43
this so does not work n it frustrates me =V
September 22nd, 2009 01:07
People, delete the Office 2007 using Microsoft’s tool
Now, do URself a favor and install Open Office .
Read this article and look at other good options…
September 21st, 2009 22:36
great job… works perfect..!!!
thanks… nd all u jerks below, instead of asking for the key 2 be mailed.. jus follow these simple instructions..!!!
September 21st, 2009 11:59
i did this and it worked. But then i closed it and opened another file. the it said [compatibility mode] and went back to when i was like a trial.
September 21st, 2009 10:40
Hey all,
I know that if you try to update Microsoft Office that it will mess up the hack. Will Windows Updates also mess up this hack?? I’d rather not turn off Windows updates if I didn’t have to but I need Office. Thanks.
September 21st, 2009 08:58
it is so funny how some ppl think that putting “for educational purposes” will keep them out of any legal trouble. if it was that easy the riaa would have been put out of business long ago
September 20th, 2009 22:39
excellent!!! I though it was not gonna work, but its great and extremely easy, cheers
September 20th, 2009 20:26
modification is not allowed because the section is locked, I get such message in microsoft office student and home 2007 edition, how can I edit my documents , I cannot also bye the full version
September 20th, 2009 02:20
Works like a charm thanks! At first i did the second step and that didn’t work, but then I went back and did the first step and now it works! Thanks again!
September 17th, 2009 11:49
Are you kidding me people! This was cake! Just change your permissions to this file b4 editing…. It worked to perfection! Im such a PC novice admitingly and I got it to work without a hitch. At first it DID deny permission but then I used my brain for 2 seconds and changed the permissions! GREAT JOB!
September 17th, 2009 11:35
you are a saint!!!!
September 16th, 2009 20:16
After unsuccessfully trying to save proof file with change to “Neverinstalled” i took another reviewers advice of saving proof file to my documents, that is after deleting product id and registration numbers. When proof file is in documents change “alwaysinstalled to “never installed”In the
. Delete original proof file totally and paste the new amended file containing “neverinstalled” in its place. This worked for me!!
Thank you
September 16th, 2009 15:56
I coulnt get it to save so i just deleted all the registration code numbers like u listed in the 1st stage of the solution. How do i get it to Save the “Neverinstalled” part it keep saying incoorect path unable blah blah. I sort of have solution now but i have to put trail product key in every time i want to use the extra options…very annoying
September 15th, 2009 08:58
i did this without reading the reviews, and it worked in the sense that the program didn’t ask for the product key
so it hit me that i should read the reviews, and many people have said that this leads to locking the program after the trial is up and being unable to uninstall it, because you can’t change the never installed back to alwaysinstalled. i had the problem where i could not get it to save, but after about five tries it worked, and now when i open the trial microsoft office it asks for product key again.
no solution to the problem, but solution for problem of the solution to the problem.
September 14th, 2009 19:25
BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 13th, 2009 22:14
This works for me.
I downloaded word as a torrent for educational purposes.
So thumbs up.
September 12th, 2009 21:55
does someone has really a solution that works
or a link for a download of 2007 with key that has been tested.
thanks
September 12th, 2009 19:09

September 8th, 2009 08:17
Worked perfectly here! Thanks!
September 6th, 2009 14:51
To make this hack full working you need delete just one file (maybe you must do it every two month):
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA\opa12.dat
Enjoy!
September 6th, 2009 04:16
This hack does not work. Try Open Office for free instead. at http://www.openoffice.org/
September 4th, 2009 16:22
hi thanks for this process , now i work in office 2007 , but how many days it is work pls tell me.
September 4th, 2009 15:44
my microsoft office is now locked after a few months of using this crack(trail must have expired_. I think all this crack does is remove the pop up of registration.
September 4th, 2009 00:13
I regret that i haven’t read the reviews before, my friend did this process for my laptop, and now i can’t activate the genuine office package. THE TRIAL VERSION EVEN CAN’T BE UNINSTALLED !!!! I’m desparate, i tried to change the “Never installed’ with “Always installed”, but it didn’t help.

August 28th, 2009 14:37
I found the SOLUTION, to the uninstall problem and locking up… This will uninstall it from your computer!!
It even mentions this in it.. LOL!!
I just bought the proper one from doing this, stupid me. It didn’t work… So I have to use this website

And it’s the same website to, so don’t be afraid

August 25th, 2009 09:44
Thx it really help me!!!
August 25th, 2009 00:46
I am also having the same problem as Ernie, i think Microsoft has released an update today which has totally ruined this hack, it was fine for a while for me but know it is totally locked down. if there is an alternative way to fix this or totally clean Office off the hard drive please let me know, hopefully Microsoft hasn’t blacklisted anyone who has done this hack.
August 24th, 2009 11:13
It works for me but just for trial period. After that Compatibility Mode is switching on and you cannot make a changes, and after that, you are not able to Uninstall/Reinstall/Repair either. So now I get stucked and cannot move anywhere
August 22nd, 2009 14:40
Thanks…it works.
August 22nd, 2009 07:36
the only thing this did was take away the box that asks for the product key… but my product still does not work
August 22nd, 2009 03:39
thankyou very much! very convenient

Microsoft locks office after modification
August 21st, 2009 19:19
i want serialkey for microsoft office
August 20th, 2009 01:32
This hack worked perfect for me, and ive used it on other peoples’ new laptops when they asked for it..for all the people who have moaned about it locking after a few weeks I really dont know why that happens because I have been using my hacked version for over 2 years+its even been able to update without any probs at all!! Double bonus or what..lol!!!
August 18th, 2009 18:09
Thanks for creating this entry about cracking Office 2007. The hell it works!
August 16th, 2009 20:18
didn’t work for me..it just didn’t ask for any serial number anymore but i still can’t make edition to my files nor make a new one…help please…
August 16th, 2009 00:23
Thank you!!!
August 13th, 2009 09:27
Is a very good idea to keep copies of the registry and from the Proof.XML
August 12th, 2009 04:23
This is not a good idea. You will be unable to uninstall Office from you computer.
Go and download OPENOFFICE.ORG if you want a free word processor, spreadsheet, presentation and database.
August 11th, 2009 11:55
This works 100%
Find a working keygen and input a working key (that way its already full version) then use this hack to stop the online activation.
I have been using for over a month now
August 8th, 2009 16:03

Works great. Now I can edit docs.
August 6th, 2009 03:15
this will lock up after a few weeks i tryed it on 2 difrent computers .. ms released this so ppl buy there product
August 6th, 2009 01:13
this “hack” is nothing more than a little trick which takes off the pop up for the product key and such.
the time bomb which will lock microsoft office is still intack.
the hack does not remove that.
well as a matter of fact, u can uninstall it, but only through the painstaking process of removing each subregistry key and such. its a pain in the ass. ur trail will expire and it will lock up. then u WILL have to manuelly uninstall each little tidbit of the Microsoft office. and u cant even jst buy the full version to “wash” out the trial. so please spare urself the troubles of listening to this “savior” cuz it does not work.”
August 5th, 2009 04:04
try in the 11.0 register. I was having the same problem and it worked
August 4th, 2009 20:42
Hello,
I am attempting to follow this instruction but when I try to find the productID file it isn’t there. In fact, there is not a single file that ends in __ID. I am running the M. Office 2007 German Home and Student Vrs. Please help me.
From Europe, Thanks a lot !
August 4th, 2009 20:38
Hi,
I attempted following this procedure on the Office 2007 German Student vrs. up until where you are asked to delete the ProductID file. I haven’t found a single __ID file on the list. What am I supposed to delete then?
From Europe, thanks a lot !
August 4th, 2009 01:27
obrigado, obrigado
August 3rd, 2009 03:07
deu certo legal
August 2nd, 2009 23:55
wow … thanks a lot … worked perfectly!
August 2nd, 2009 08:21
I downloaded MS office 2007 professional version 60 trial version with a product key provided by microsoft and installed it on my computer. Then,I came to know a trick which could convert this free trial version into a permanent version. Trick was as follows:
1.Click on Start button, then click on Run.
2.Type “regedit” (without quotes) in the Run text box, and click OK or press Enter.
3.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}
4. Deleted the following two filed:
• DigitalProductID
• ProductID
5. Go to RUN and locate file Proof.en
6.In the bottom changed AlwaysInstalled into NeverInstalled and saved it.
It worked for couple of days but after a few days it ceased working.Now I can not even uninstall MS office because of those two filed I had deleted. I tried to download free trial version again and setup from the beginning but it does not work either because of the same reason.
Could you please help me out this problem?Thanks!
August 2nd, 2009 03:04
WOW!!!
Thank you so much. I have used this on two computers and both of them are working perfectly!
August 2nd, 2009 00:24
Your method is impressive sir. But it doesn’t work. My com hung then it asked for the Product Key again! ):
July 31st, 2009 22:27

Sir,
I download ms office 2007 but it ask product key. after 25 times it will not modify the files.
July 25th, 2009 05:04
after posting my confirmation today, ive been surpirsed to read that some people have problems. in fact, this is it:
1. for ms 2007 enterprise professional sp2 (including basic products, excluding visio and project), i can only suggest the following serial it worked for me:
(may delete your current key first in order to be prompted to insert serial again . more details on deleting your current serial: see step 1 in the original posting)
2. for visio and project 2007 professinal (english) trial, i ve been using the method above (s, original post) by modifying the english file (…en\proof.xml). what i can notice is, it didnt only exit the popup activation prompt but also: the product works fully now ! (those who installed visio and project 2007 pro, they know that if you dont activate the prodcuts, you wil only be able to “try” the menu, see the buttos, etc…without right to create new file for example…)
the activation method works for visio and project. how long? hmm well see… i can only confirm that it didnt only exit the popup prompt, but more…
July 25th, 2009 04:50
i can confirm it worked with m§ Visio and project 2007 pro [english] trial.
in fact it is very important to delete the first key entered (the trial one) then EXIT regedit !! .
once done, you must cut the proof.xml file and paste it somewhere else (for example on desktop) where you can edit it (i used win text editor, u can use notepad too). just edit the line, close and confirm saving then re-paste the file to its original directory,
start m$ offi..,
done.
July 24th, 2009 23:08
If you want to uninstall it, you have to change the file back to Always Installed WITH A CAPITAL A!!!!
July 20th, 2009 17:45
It does not work dont do it
July 19th, 2009 18:29
If you want to uninstall office you have to re change neverInstalled to AlwaysInsalled on proof.XML file from steps 1-6 above.
July 16th, 2009 01:45
He is a asshole, pls do not use this process. it will become pain in the ass.. you will not be able to use product after 30 days and most important is you cannot uninstall the program you are going to be in a big problem
July 15th, 2009 07:59
all the idiot’s, don’t use this hack!
don’t say it’s work u will see that after some days or week it will stop work
see what other guys say’s
“i repeat this does NOT work…u will NOT be able to uninstall it once u do this “hack.” this “hack” is nothing more than a little trick which takes off the pop up for the product key and such. the time bomb which will lock microsoft office is still intack. the hack does not remove that. well as a matter of fact, u can uninstall it, but only through the painstaking process of removing each subregistry key and such. its a pain in the ass. ur trail will expire and it will lock up. then u WILL have to manuelly uninstall each little tidbit of the Microsoft office. and u cant even jst buy the full version to “wash” out the trial. so please spare urself the troubles of listening to this “savior” cuz it does not work.”
July 14th, 2009 09:08

That’s OVER TWO YEARS. How short is an ‘extremely short lifespan’ ??
July 13th, 2009 02:03
It worked perfectly, Thanks
July 12th, 2009 13:38
Alot of users will be coming back here to post their protests when office goes into lockdown. This bandaid fix has an extremely short lifespan.

July 7th, 2009 05:05
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work. It removes the pop-up for activation, but then you are in Read-Only mode. Can’t type anything.
July 7th, 2009 03:53

I’m lost. Help.
I stuck on #4. I found the below folder when I click on its, it show me all the AB Icons. What do I do next. Please email me kimme05@gmail.com
Thank you
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
4.If there is more than one registry entries or subkeys that reference Microsoft 12.0 registration, open up each subkey, and then identify the product by the ProductName value data until you locate the subkey for the product which you want to remove the existing product license key.
For example:
ProductName=Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
ProductName=Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007
5.Once found the correct registry subkey, delete the following values:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
6.Close Registry Editor.

worked like a charm. big ups.
June 27th, 2009 08:50
READ PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This does work. This hack makes no promises of stopping the trial version from expiring – it simply gives you full use of Microsoft Office that is otherwise limited due to it’s trial status.
This works EXACTLY how the poster says it will. Open your eyes. Read. Stop being idiots.
THIS-DOES-NOT-WORK… it only turns off the prompt to buy office. The demo will expire all the same at the end of the trial period.. why do people keep posting this obviously non-working hack?
June 27th, 2009 07:11

You are the greatest!!!
I was in the middle of a company project when the trial expired. Since this was a Beta test on my own time before the company would look at it, I would have had to shell out needed money to continue.
Anyway, thanks again and I’ll turn off automatice updating.

June 8th, 2009 01:47
I have Windows Vista, it came with MS Office Home and Student. I decided to download MS Office Enterprise. I have tried keygens, I tried this and nothing had worked. Please, help! It seems that I will have to buy the program…
June 7th, 2009 14:31
OK this is the second crack (that actually works!) Install Office 2007 with a product key (not a trial product key!)and use this crack!
1. Install Office 2007
2. Enter the Serial (Don’t work without one)
3. Extract this stuff to:
C:Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE12
Replace file when prompted
Open any Office 2007 Application. Like Word.
Click Activate by Phone. Pick your Country.
Fill all of the empty boxes with zeros so it looks
like this: 000000-000000-000000-000000-000000-000000
. Click Activate. and it will tell you it’s activated!
Get the OGA here http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4387686
I know it’s a lot of work but it worked 4 me. Maybe it will work 4 others…
FYI :I use Vista Basic, and made many modifications to the services.msc file disabling many microsoft programs.
June 7th, 2009 14:03
hey..
how can i fix my hacked ms office 2007?
it says below that…
“modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”
is there any way i can still use this?
please reply asap. i really need this. thanks
June 7th, 2009 10:57
Hey didn’t realize that this wouldn’t work if I had already put in a product code. So I tried to change to “neverinstall” but it didn’t work (of couse) but the problem is now I cannot remove the software because it says a file is corrupt. Any suggestions? I want to delete it so I can try another method.
June 6th, 2009 22:28
Vaaleu vey !
June 6th, 2009 01:54
wow..what a great work to break that,, i had troubled with office trial version downloaded from its site,, but u made the change great…………congrats mr.genius………

Doesn’t work, I’ve followed all the procedures but after several times it becomes like a viewer.
I’ve XP Pro SP3
June 5th, 2009 01:17
in answer to the question vista users might have about allowing themselves full control, you just right click on ‘proof’ (the file itself) and choose properties>security>edit, choose the appropriate user and click ‘full control.’ hope that helps! it should allow you to save normally after that.

June 4th, 2009 04:25
Hi,
i did it 2 month ago and it worked perfect.

For morrons who don’t manage to save the proof:
Copy it first on the desktop, then make the change.
Then save it, and move it back.
Accept overwrite.

Wow! Thanks! It works!
May 31st, 2009 07:53
If you already installed MSO 07 with a good key but cannot ACTIVATE it try this.
Download mso.dll_patched_activation_and_templates_SP2_(12.0.6425.1000). Extract the file to: C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE12
Replace the file when prompted. Open any Office 2007 application, like Word. Click “Activate by Phone.” Pick your Country. Fill all of the empty boxes with zeros so it looks like this: 000000-000000-000000-000000-000000-000000
Click “Activate” and it will tell you it’s activated!

At work they use cracked versions of Office 2007. I checked and all of them say “Always Installed”.
Considering they’ve been using the cracked versions for a good year or year and a half, it obviously makes no diff that the thing says “Always Installed”.
May 28th, 2009 13:27
Works great! Thank you!
May 28th, 2009 03:46
alright, sorry to say, but this will only remove the prompt, i tried this and after 60 days it stops working… it just stops the prompt
May 26th, 2009 23:08
Hi. I have followed the steps but when I change the “AlwaysInstalled” to “neverInstalled” it will not allow me to save. I get a popup box that says:
“Cannot create the C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\Proof.XML file.
Make sure that the path and file name are correct.”
Please help me figure this out. I am anxious to see this bad boy in action!
May 26th, 2009 12:39

Okay so I’ve basically been getting the same problems as everyone here. I installed Onenote 2007 and it worked for about a month and now it’s grayed out and I cannot modify my document. I’m currently trying to use it on XP. However, I did the same thing a couple months back on my vista laptop and it still works perfectly fine…
does anyone know why this is and how to fix it?? Thanks
May 11th, 2009 23:13
If you get an error trying to save, follow this:
1. Open proof.xml
2. Edit correctly
3. Save to Desktop as proof.xml
4. In Office /dir/ rename proof.xml to proof.old
5. Copy desktop version to office /dir/

this patche no longer works … I have Office 2007 Trial SP2 installed and it no longer works. Before I had to reload my computer – my previous install of Office 2007 Trial was successfully running with the patch.
Anyone have any other ideas???
May 11th, 2009 13:38
it WORKED!!!! FOR 2 MONTHS
May 11th, 2009 13:03
hey it work.. thanks
May 11th, 2009 11:56
This does work. However, if you ever want run the installer for office 2007 for any reason, you must change the “neverinstalled” back to “AlwaysInstalled”. If you don’t you will get an error telling you that to run the installer from the original media.

May 6th, 2009 21:38

April 30th, 2009 23:06
Microsoft has patched Office 2007 so that this option doesn’t work anymore. No widely known solution is available except to buy a real copy of it. Depending on what you need in the suite it isn’t that costly sometimes… especially if you are a student.
April 30th, 2009 17:35
Hi,
I recently followed the step by step instructions, which were very easy to follow and it did unlock office 2007 for me. But a week later my office is now locked and I am unable to do anything…
Is there any way to fix this problem. I dont want to restart my office as Ive got alot of vital info on here…. Please get bk at me asap
April 29th, 2009 23:21
it worked for a while then it didnt. it just says “cannot be modified”
April 27th, 2009 22:42
Same thing at 1004 actually. Was working fine for about a month. :/
April 27th, 2009 22:39
Getting the same message as 1051 too.
April 27th, 2009 22:38
Yeah… looks like this hack breaks after a period of time or perhaps someone accidentally ran a Windows update that killed it. At any rate it looks like this install is dead… or at least I don’t have a new idea to continue. :/ Tried setting back to original (restoring the reg entries, restoring the file to AlwaysInstalled) opening up Word and then closing and re-following steps. No joy.
April 27th, 2009 22:28
This worked for me for awhile and then this weekend it stopped working. It’s showing as if it’s a view only program. :/
April 27th, 2009 21:51
I have tried it also and it IS NOT Working because my trial has expired.
seems the hack only block the GUI to not ask u for Product ID but in background it knows your trial has expired.
April 27th, 2009 13:12
Hi,
Thanks a lot, I tried and it it worked! Thanks again!
April 27th, 2009 06:32

In order to write the new “proof.xml” into the folder, I just saved the NEW proof.xml on my desktop, moved the OLD one into My Documents (just for safe keeping) the moved the NEW Proof.xml into the folder where the old one was. It wouldn’t let me save the NEW one there from notepad either.

The best way to activate office xp after re-installing windows is by saving and restoring the files, hmmmm….!!!!
April 11th, 2009 03:34
It can only work for a while. The only thing is that window which let you enter the product key doesn’t appear. Then after office expired, you cannot use it at all.
April 11th, 2009 02:44
Gabrielle: yes, thats the reason why i used this, after my office expired i used this to get the full version
April 10th, 2009 10:15
OMG thank you!! I hope it works like this forever!! I had it registered and had to reinstall windows. Then the key didn’t work.
April 9th, 2009 09:08
It worked fine for a week but now Outlook stopped working while Excel, Word & Powerpoint are still working properly… when I try to remove Office from the PC I get an error message due to “setup error”. Any suggestions on how I can remove or resolve problem with outlook?
April 9th, 2009 09:02
does this mean all microsoft office 2007 professional programs can be used without expiring after 60 days?
April 8th, 2009 17:14
thanks a lot didn’t know it was so easy to do
April 8th, 2009 05:48

Make sure the path and file name are correct. Any ideas on how to get around this or what I may be doing wrong? Thanks!!
April 6th, 2009 21:31
Can anyone answer my question about what the files could be called?
April 6th, 2009 20:42
Uh, ignore the typos in my prev post
April 6th, 2009 20:36
It used to work but today after I startes Word, I encountered the same error as 1004. Checked everything, the reg keys are deleted, the file is modified yet I get the “locked” message.
April 6th, 2009 20:05
Could it be these two files?:
DPCfile
PSS
April 6th, 2009 19:57
I cannot find the two files you have to delete within the subkey-file:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
They aren’t there, so what should I do?
April 6th, 2009 19:26

I have the same issue as comment 1004
I didn’t edit the registry first though, & it worked for a short while but in the middle of editing a document it locked on me & now I cannot do anything to it! Suggestions? I’ve tried going back into the registry and deleting those 2 values but they aren’t there?
April 6th, 2009 08:21

April 6th, 2009 03:47
i have the same thing as Add (comment 1004)
so what to do?
April 5th, 2009 18:47
@ rivebise – thanks, I had trouble locating the file as Im using Vista as well, now my turn to help you.
To save the file (cos I then had the same problem as you) you need to right click on the Proof.en file, go into properties, and click on the security tab. Have a look at your user name in the list (there’s administrator etc) and see if you have modify rights. Most likely not, so just click on the edit button, give yourself rights to modify. I didn’t even bother closing down the proof.en file while I made the changes, just went back and saved it and voila!
April 5th, 2009 01:45
This didn’t work for me on Office 2007.
It no longer asks for a product key, but if I try to type anything it says ‘This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked’.
Any suggestions? the search continues..
April 4th, 2009 06:29
hey.thanks for posting this. However, i run windows vista, so my pathfile is program86 and not programs files. I found the file alright, however, when i try to save the modifications, it says “cannot find file” ?…
please help me.
thank you.
April 4th, 2009 02:00
It does work. Thank you.
April 3rd, 2009 15:12

April 1st, 2009 09:23
just tried it on my trial that had expired and it unlocked it worked for me great
March 31st, 2009 05:34
Worked great. Important note: You have to undo any changes when you try to uninstall, or uninstall will fail.
March 31st, 2009 00:08
Bonjour,
Je viens d’acheter une clé de licence mais le problème c’est que j’ai perdu ma sauvegarde du registre comment faire pour activer mon produit car j’ai payé, et j’ai besoin de word et tout le reste.
March 30th, 2009 20:28
it doesn’t work you, stupido !
March 30th, 2009 09:52
THIS ONLY WORKS FOR THE TRIAL TIME… EVEN NO ACTIVATION PROMPT APPEAR, AFTER THE TRIAL PERIOD FINISH, IT DOESN’T WORK ANYMORE… NOT GOOD~
March 27th, 2009 23:04
Worked for me about a month ago. THANK YOU!

March 26th, 2009 07:33
Works great but expires in 30 day, any permanent fixes?
March 25th, 2009 22:24
This does work. This hack makes no promises of stopping the trial version from expiring – it simply gives you full use of Microsoft Office that is otherwise limited due to it’s trial status.
This works EXACTLY how the poster says it will. Open your eyes. Read. Stop being idiots.
March 24th, 2009 10:41
As said below, this no longer works. Dont waste your time trying it. Trial WILL expire, no matter whet you do.
March 21st, 2009 23:15
THIS-DOES-NOT-WORK… it only turns off the prompt to buy office. The demo will expire all the same at the end of the trial period.. why do people keep posting this obviously non-working hack?
March 21st, 2009 01:27
I did that as a trial, but I could not find how to undo that… and now I cannot edit any WORD document, I can only read, If I try to edit I receive this message… ” this modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”
Can somebody help me please, on how to undo this or re-allow editing documents.
Thanks!
March 21st, 2009 00:40

March 18th, 2009 08:16
well I got to the LAST stage and right when I was going to save it wouldn’t let me.
I’m the administrator and have full control, what’s wrong??
Also I accidentally deleted a thing on number 4 that said ProductName. I just deleted it because there was nothing else under it. Is that a problem??
March 17th, 2009 23:07
THANKS MAN YOU HELPED ME A LOT!!!!
March 17th, 2009 18:42

Followed all directions to a “T”. Still asks me for a registration key each time I open any part of the program. I’m using XP home edition. Any ideas would be most welcome.
March 16th, 2009 10:06
This will work for a few days/weeks and then it’s the same old story. All the editable fields will be grayed out and the files are read-only. I have Vista home and Office 2007 home/student version.
Any help?
March 16th, 2009 03:57
if you have vista, delete the proo.xml selection.
then go open your recyle bin and drag the file onto you desktop. edit it on the and save it. Then drag the file back into the proo.en folder. works like a charm
March 14th, 2009 17:58

March 10th, 2009 06:42
Thanks, worked. But how can I prevent Microsoft office to update itself when I’m online? Surely there must be a box to uncheck to make sure Office doesn’t update without the user kowing about it…?
Thanks for your help.
March 9th, 2009 13:37
I have windows vista. I installed the software as instructed. It doesn’t ask work any product key after I changes the “Proof” file. But all the Microsoft funtionallity is not available. Can you please help me on that. Thanks.

TO ALL THOSE WITH VISTA AND GET THIS
‘Cannot create the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.XML file.’ Make sure the path and file name are correct.

Just to help others, dop this once you have installed the trial without entering a key
Secondly, change the SetupXMLfile only in the Proof.en file
Great work digitallife

March 4th, 2009 10:44
This rocks! Works like a charm. I am impressed! Like you said, obviously I won’t be able to download updates….but that goes without saying. Not to hard to do with Vista, just gotta think outside the box a bit.
March 4th, 2009 07:12
Is it true that Microsoft scans their programs for this sort of tampering?
March 4th, 2009 07:05
Well, it all looks nice, but it wont work for me. I have Windows Vista and when I try to change the “AlwaysInstalled” to “neverInstalled”, I get a code that tells me ‘Cannot create the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.XML file.’ Make sure the path and file name are correct.
Please help because I would like to use this hack. Also, when I went to change to “neverinstalled”, it gave me two options, one was for SetupControllerFiles and the other for SetupXmlFiles. I didnt know which to change so I tried both.

I dont have DigitalProductID nor ProductID in the registry…I tried deleting ProductName….

as far as my folder goes is C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12 and there I only have 4 files… they are msoshext.dll MSOXEV.DLL MSOXMLED (has no .exe or .dll or other extension, just the name. description says it is an application tho) and I have MSOXMLMF.DLL

If you are using vista and you can’t save the file take the following steps; it worked for me.
Go to Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Turn User Account Control off -> Restart, then try it. It will let you save.
Hope this helps and thanks for the article!

Please, someone help me!

I followed what you said, and the pop up asking for the code stopped, but it wont let me type in any of the office programs anymore eg word or excel. in the status bar at the bottom it says “this modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”
what can i do? thanks!

to give permission to save the changes in note page, right click on the file while in its folder, click properties. go to the security tab, click advanced, you should see 3 options- 2 have full access, one does not, click on it- click off the check box for full access. voila
February 27th, 2009 05:33
how do you give full permision so you can change it?

February 15th, 2009 10:54
im on vista and it wasnt letting me save, so instead save it into your documents and delete the original proof.xml then paste the new one into the folder…this should work
February 15th, 2009 02:22
i have vista and at first it kept saying it couldn’t save Proof in XML format, it could only save as a .txt file.
so i had to open Notepad first, right clicking it to open. I selected use ‘run as administrator’ to be able to edit in notepad (second part).
when i opened notepad as an administrator, then clicked OPEN from the File menu,
selected ‘all files’,
and then copied and pasted the proof file address (from part 2 step 1) in the search box.
I followed the directions changing AlwaysInstalled to neverInstalled.
Then I saved it.
after that i worked.
Hope it helps a Vista user.
February 15th, 2009 02:10
thanks a lot. this really did work. can’t imagine how much money i’m saving!
peace and blessings unto you!
February 15th, 2009 01:35

February 13th, 2009 01:30
I got all the way to the last step and it tells me that it cannot create the file then asks me if I want to overwrite it and I click yes but then it takes me back to the first thing about not being able to create the file. does anyone know what I should do?
February 12th, 2009 17:43
Actually, neverInstalled produces an error, YOU HAVE TO DO FullInstalled and change the MS_OFFICE_TRIAL value to MS_OFFICE_FULL. Then it will work.
February 12th, 2009 17:27

hey after a few days after the hack office goes into RFM just like this…Why does it do like this. Each time i have to install and then crack it. Please helP!!!!
February 8th, 2009 05:59
Totally worked – thanks! I had the trial already installed but had passed the 60 days. I followed the instructions to remove the activation codes, then do the hack & had no problems. I dont know what these other people are on about re it not working – they must not have followed the instructions properly! If it locked your office trial why wouldn’t you just uninstall-reinstall and try again? Uninstalling a trial doesn’t wipe your saved files…
February 8th, 2009 05:37
You guys do know that after the 60 days if you delete the 2 things in the registry. Once Office locks up all you have to do is download a new copy of the trial over top of the one you currently have, and use a new trial key for an additional 60 days of use.
February 8th, 2009 05:00
OMG, I HAVE TO UNINSTAL EVERYTHING FIRST AND THEN FOLLOW THOSE STEPS? UUUUGHH, SHIT I DIDNT DO THAT .. cuz like, i did without uninstaling it, and it was still locked
but like, i have the home and student version, does it make any difference?
and i will unistal the whole office now to repeat those steps, so i DOWNLOAD THE OFFICE AGAIN, RIGHT?
February 6th, 2009 11:44
Do not fucking do this, this does not work, you can do this, but after 20 times you used it, it will lock again this just make the install Microsoft office windows disappear, in other words, this is useless, don’t even bother doing his.
February 6th, 2009 06:44
Thanks man! Really works!
February 6th, 2009 05:47

February 5th, 2009 04:28
What’s the big deal, it still lasts 60 days? It’s even worse because you forget when it expires!
Why’s everyone thanking you for “saving life” and calling you God?
I don’t get it!

January 30th, 2009 08:24
i cant open word, or uninstall it or anything.. what should i do, i would just like to get it back to normal where i can buy the code or get it from a friend. any suggestions?
January 30th, 2009 05:05
Kristie $827, did you find out how to fix the problem without uninstalling? I can read my emails but can’t respond or use most of the features. Quite annoying. I just saw Frank’s suggestion in 67. Not sure how I missed it. Apparently, once you have the gray features that’s it. So you do have to uninstall and try the suggestions he gave once you reinstall office. Give it a shot! Let me know if it works.
Unfortunately, I gave my office (ultimate) Cd away and never activated; I didn’t expect to have a problem since it was an original. Does anyone know if I can download a trial version for ultimate or should I have my nephew ship it back to me? Oh yeah! Since I can’t save anything in outlook, does that mean I lose all emails since my screen went gray? Sucks to be nice sometimes! Help
January 30th, 2009 03:36
okay. i did all that and everything worked perfectly for a few months or so, and now i’m back to an ended trial?
i’ve checked the proof.en file and it is still saved as “neverInstalled”, and so i changed it back to Always, and it said my trial ran out – and changed it back to “never” and it doesn’t give me the popup, but still acts as if my trial ran out.
now it appears the only way to fix this, is to remove that version, and download a new trial pack (student, home etc) for a new trial – and attempt this hack again? possibly to only get 60 days/25 uses all over again?
i have no idea why this happened, (or when for that matter, since i don’t use office regularly).
help please?

I was able to deactivate the activation screen by following the directions; however when I open Word or Outlook the functionality grays out after 1 minute. I have updates turned off; something is allowing Outlook to reverse privilege after 30 sec to a minute. What could it be and how do I fix it without uninstalling and removing everything. Help…

Oops didn’t work after all the key prompt still came up it was just slow.
January 27th, 2009 04:29
It worked but the file was in a different place. My computer came with M office installed but no product key and said it would stop working after a certain number of times opening the product.
I searched in my computer for Proof.XML and it found the file for me and changed the line as stated and now it opens without warning.
Thanks

January 26th, 2009 09:39
I tested this out and it works, though, when I got my laptop office 2007 was already on my comp but i guess it was just the trial version, the user before me never installed office and thus never entered in the trial product key. i saw on here somewhere that if you do what you posted before the trial version then microsoft will pick it up and you won’t be able to get it back. would this also apply in my case?
please send an email to emilelongo19@hotmail.com
thanks, you are a genius dude!

January 24th, 2009 17:27
I’ve read all the comments about this item. All i’m going to do is wait for the 60 day trial period and then do this “hack / tweak” or whatever they call it. For the meantime, i’ll still look for serials and keygens that will work. Saves me all the trouble of going through this unsure process of obtaining Microsoft Office ‘07. I suggest to find keygens and serials in torrents/file sharing sites like “Thepiratebay.com or mininova.org”.
Also try astalavista.com for serial search…
I think this is the safest way so far and only do this “hack/tweak” if only in desperation… Just a thought….

this was ok hack if it worked DUHHH
January 20th, 2009 18:32
ich habe die Dateien wie im Tutorial angeführt gelöscht und die restlichen Schritte ebenso vollzogen. Jedoch kann das Programm immernoch einige Funktionen nicht ausführen. Deswegen wollte ich es löschen, allerdings konnte ich dies nicht vollzogen werden, da ja die Dateien von mir zuvor gelöscht wurden. Kann mir jemand sagen wie die Werte im “Regedit” aussehen? vielleicht einen Screenshot schicken oder so? Ich denke wenn ich die Werte wieder herstelle wie sie vorher waren gelingt mir das Deinstallieren auch.
Ihr wäret mir eine große Hilfe

@TopRocker0013
So use this hack after trial evaluation expired?
Why the developer didn’t tell it from beginning?
Now I can’t remove my Microsoft Office 2007,what should I do?
January 19th, 2009 02:41
For people that have problems: If you have the trial, let the 60 days pass then use the hack because people are getting locked from the computer because Microsoft moniters the trial until it ends. So, when the trial expires and it’s in “read-only” mode that’s the time to use this hack

Thanks a fucking lot, doing it caused Vista to shut me out completely. Now I can’t do anything with my computer except go on Firefox, and what the fucking use is that. I reversed what I did awhile ago because I found an old version of Office. Now I have to reload Vista, and basically lose everything, as far as I can tell. Don’t use it.
January 17th, 2009 06:18

January 15th, 2009 04:11
The Office Trial that was preinstalled on my PC ran out so it effectively turned it into a reader because I could not make any changes to the documents. After using this workaround I can now make alterations etc again so in my case it worked a treat. OK I now have to turn off auto updates etc but that’s no great inconvenience.
Thanks to the Compiler of this workaround, keep up the good work.

Boujour à tous ! J’ai tout suivi ces précieuses instructions mais à létape de changer en “neverInstalled”, ça me marque mauvais chemin d’accès ( J’ai vista)
DE L’AIDE SVP J’AI BESOIN DE OFFICE !

RÉPONDEZ PLZ
January 14th, 2009 06:24
this modification is not allowed because selection is locked”. how i fix it after i hack office 2007
January 13th, 2009 18:36
I was looking for some product key generator but this stuff really worked for me..
Thanks
January 13th, 2009 12:10
This does not work to get MS Office for free. It just disables the notification. After 25 starts or 60 days most functions are disabled. When you want uninstall it you cant because of the deleted subkeys in the registry file. Manual uninstall is your next step and its a lot of steps. Best to go to Ebay and find one cheaply.
January 13th, 2009 07:55
Tried it is right, your trial will still run out “as did mine” and then when you try to edit files you’ll get “this modification is not allowed because this selection is locked” …. Oh well
January 13th, 2009 05:51
i cant change the proof file wat do i do
January 13th, 2009 04:38
I did every single step, but once I got to the step where i open up proof.en in Notepad, i change is to ‘neverInstalled’ but once i save it, it tells me that
“can not create….
Make sure the Path Name and file name are correct.”
I also use Vista…I already had this installed onto my computer for a little over 30 days also, so I just went ahead and did all the steps with it being on my computer…should I uninstall it?
What am i doing wrong?????
January 13th, 2009 01:37
No this actually works, and yes MS does have a correction for it in automatic updates. Key is, just stop installing automatic updates. I had to system restore and stop installing them.
All MS does for auto updates is scan your web history and provide it to its MSN web search team. No real need for them unless you have Vista, where MS constantly must fix OS flaws
January 12th, 2009 07:30
I cant change the “proof.xml” file… what do i do?!!!
January 11th, 2009 21:38
Thanks alot man… Ur the best.. Keep up the good work….. Damn I can imagine the face of Bil Gates.. Ha ha…. Thanks again man..
January 11th, 2009 03:31
will i ever have to register it again? because i just saw that it is totally not activated.
January 10th, 2009 07:21
It took Microsoft a day to find me out and disable most functions of all my Office 2007 programs. I suspect they inspect your computer everytime they claim to “install updates”. This is a really stupid, amateurish set of instructions. Don’t even try.
January 9th, 2009 17:58
this is not a hack. just a stupid tweak to avoid seeing the pop up. doesn’t work, people. don’t even bother with it.
January 9th, 2009 01:24
You are the best man…i was looking for hacking MS 2007 Entreprise for like ages and nothing worked till I found this.
Thanks a lot.

January 7th, 2009 04:45
I have ypur method on my laptop it worked perfectly, however on my vista comp, it wont let me save the proof.en file.
January 6th, 2009 02:08
you dumbass, 30 days left and now i cant uninstall it..
to anyone else; would it cause a prob. if i shift + del it from C folder?
January 5th, 2009 11:39
FYI.
it works, yes.
but it does ask you if for a product key, even thoe it is not required.
butt…..
it will only let you run it up to 25 times before you can no longer use it w/o a product key.
click the ? on the bottom left when it askes you for the key.
January 5th, 2009 03:06
Great it works!
But nly the registry way worked and only after removing the values from BOTH reg keys as mentioned THANKS.
[The Proof.en doesnt have "cost=1248" maybe because it's not an English office, but still I found 2 places to change it and it did not work when I put "NeverInstalled" at the right places.]
January 4th, 2009 17:32
it worked but now(almost after 30days) it doesn’t- i change the proof. en part back to “AlwaysInstalled” and it still will not unistall?
January 4th, 2009 01:44
Great now it cannot be uninstalled. You should have your ass kicked.
January 3rd, 2009 08:05
Didn’t work…It takes off the the word trial and all that stuff but…After 60 day inspires it is freezing…So author u can easily delete this thread or whatever
January 3rd, 2009 06:54
if u get a thing that wont let u save it simpley……
in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\ folder right-click on proof ,then, click security , click your name than click edit, then click full control click apily, and edit the file,anyway, that HACK WORKS!!!! but i have a ? why is 1note on my bigrig (big computer) but not on my laptop??
January 2nd, 2009 13:39
it worked to remove the notification to activate it & enter the product key message but did not able to unlock the features,so it opens with reduced functionality………so not a great job at all.

December 29th, 2008 01:56
“Guys, this will corrupt the installation after a short time. You won’t be able to uninstall it, and all it does is remove the word “trial” its still only a 60 day trial”.
Exectly said John is right.
December 28th, 2008 00:26
Ohh… i saved the note to my desktop and edited it and saved it 2 my desktop again then i put it back in the proof.en folder hope it says ok…
December 28th, 2008 00:22
i couldnt save the proof file again… so i deleted the whole proof file… dunno whats gonna happen but i used word a few times and its been ok…
December 27th, 2008 15:43
Guys, this will corrupt the installation after a short time. You won’t be able to uninstall it, and all it does is remove the word “trial” its still only a 60 day trial.

I need help. I used this about 3 months ago and it worked perfectly. Now with no warning it has all just completely gone again and the problem is that all my files ARE saved how they should be on here.
Has anyone else had this? Not sure if I may have downloaded a Microsoft update that has wiped it. Desperately need Word back.
This is good tho! (as long as I can get it back!)

1. right click on the Proof.XML and select properties
2. go to the security tab and give all full access so that you can modify the file
3. follow the steps above to change the Proof.XML
works for me….
December 13th, 2008 01:29
Does it work?
December 12th, 2008 03:29
Anyone with Vista needs to right click on the file first and give yourself permissions to write and modify.
December 11th, 2008 13:01

Hi,
I have a huge problem with this!! and its ruining me!! so please please help…
I was using office 2007 pro trial and did the above to stop the activation dialog box problem….only problem is now outlook wont send, i cant reply, i cant add to the calendar, word wont save, excel wont work…like an idiot i didnt back up the productID OR DigitalProductID files. I have tried everything to activate the product – reloaded the software but i get constant error messages – how do i replace the files i deleted and get everything back to normal so i can pay and activate the software?????
Please help, i cant do a thing and have been trying to sort this for 3 days now!!!
info@cableforce.co.uk
Thanks in advance
December 8th, 2008 18:43
Ok, this works indeed for about 25 times opening a Office document and then you’re back to start. Keep your initial product code, after resetting the “NeverInstalled” back to the original value you may be able to re-install.
Good Luck.
December 8th, 2008 13:40
ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!
I GOT A FREAKING PROBLEM WITH MY MS OFFICE 2007!
IT SAYS “THIS MODERATION IS NOT ALLOWED BECAUSE THE SELECTION IS LOCKED”
WHY IS THAT?
HOW TO UNLOCK????
PLEASE, ANYBODY!!!
December 8th, 2008 13:10
This only worked for me for a week, then it just crapped out on me and locked. Any suggestions as to what may have happened?
December 8th, 2008 03:36
Totally worked. Sweet and simple.
December 7th, 2008 06:50
does not work. im using vista
December 6th, 2008 22:44
Close all Microsoft Office applications.
Run Register Editor by clicking on Start -> Run, and then type “regedit” in the Open box and press Enter key.
Navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration
Note that inside the registry key, there should be another subkey that resembles the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{91120000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
If there is more than one registry entries or subkeys that reference Microsoft 12.0 registration, open up each subkey, and then identify the product by the ProductName value data until you locate the subkey for the product which you want to remove the existing product license key.
For example:
ProductName=Microsoft Office Professional 2007
ProductName=Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007
Once found the correct registry subkey, delete the following values:
(DigitalProductID and ProductID)
If these value’s are not available then delete,
(Current)
Close Registry Editor.
and have a Activated Microsoft Office 2007.
Thanks

This crack does not work. If it does why have microsoft let this crack be here to this day? After 25 times of opening this it says ‘…selection is locked’ which means you cannot type or do anything with office.
December 6th, 2008 00:39
Ok, I did what it says in here but how do I use it fully? It wont let make change fonts and stuff, just read the contents.
December 5th, 2008 14:44

I meant outlook –
December 5th, 2008 00:53
hi,
iv used this and it does work for word, excel, but unfortunately not for office – i am unable to send any emails, although i can receive.
Any ideas how i can get around this?
many thanks
December 5th, 2008 00:13
YES!!!! It worked. I’m a student and I can’t afford overpriced software, so I would like to take this opportunity and thank the author of this article. You rock..
December 3rd, 2008 19:05
File>New>Mail Message and other’s menu in Outlook 2007 doesn’t work on this trick!
December 3rd, 2008 12:30
I did this and it worked, but a few things were different.
I have Vista with the trial home & student version. When I first tried to clear my existing key, I couldnt find “Registration” under the 12.0 in regedit. Nor could I find “Office Setup Controller” under OFFICE12 when looking to edit the xml file in Windows Explorer.
I found after further research that I have a x64 system. So instead of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
you need to look under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration
and then to edit the xml file you should look under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\
instead of C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\
And I also had to change the permissions for the xml file because it wouldnt let me save it. To do that, right click on the xml file (before opening it with notepad) and choose “properties”, then the “security” tab. Click on “advanced” and then “owner”, then “edit” then click on the name of the person under “change owner to” then click apply or ok. Close out the “properties” window and then reopen the “properties” and click on the “security” tab. Now click on the user name you chose and click “edit”. Click on the user name you chose again and then mark all of the empty boxes under “allow” in the permissions for users box. Click apply or ok and your done. Now you can edit the xml file and save it according to the instructions above.
Hope this helps some of ya!
December 3rd, 2008 04:26
If you want a good office suite download openoffice.org. It doesnt come with the frustrating ribbon.
December 2nd, 2008 18:31
I manage to change the file to the “neverInstalled” thingy, thoug it still doesnt work… Is it because i have it on danish, where the folder is Proof.da?
December 2nd, 2008 15:54
thank you yoon and sanci,
it really worked.
thanks very much and thanks to digital life
December 2nd, 2008 08:28
i installed it and did everything but now it say that the selection is locked and i cant uninstall microsoft office trial… what can i do to uninstall it.
December 2nd, 2008 08:27
Do not do this. After 60 days all Microsoft Office programs will eventually freeze. It’s just a hack not a permanent hack. It just gets rid of the activation screen. I repeat do not do this
December 2nd, 2008 06:56
I’ve gone through everything and it’s still locked, which is very frustrating, considering I wanted to get some writing done today, and I have a paper due Wednesday that I can’t do now. Ffffff.
December 2nd, 2008 06:51

not you
thanks again
December 1st, 2008 12:24
I downloaded the MS Officce Enterprise 2007. Afer having installed, I had changed the XML file to the “Neverinstalled” as the above instruction. But I just can use the program for some days, now I can’t modify my document. The Office say: “the modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”. Tell me the reasons why,pls. Or help me how to get a full free version forever.
December 1st, 2008 09:05
Hey guys. To those having troubles saving the ‘proof’ file you have to change go into the ‘properties’ for the folder that holds that file and change the permissions. It is set by default to NOT allow you to change / modify. Just go into properties –> security and change the permissions so USERS (such as you) have full control. Then you can save the Proof.XML file!
Fk you microsoft !
December 1st, 2008 06:22
I’m not able to save the “Proof” file after changing one of the words that should allow me use office without a key. What do I need to do ?
December 1st, 2008 03:53
Yo, dude, you know what you are doing.
Very smart guy whoever posted this.
This worked!!

November 23rd, 2008 07:24
Thanks a lot! It worked on Vista also, but with changing proof.xml in other location and then placing it in right folder.
November 23rd, 2008 01:59

AK47, I have no intention of installing sp2 as not sure if it will affect the patch or not (highly likely), just stick with sp1 on it.
Mine is installed for a week now and it seems fine by using my method. So for those that got ur office to lock up by using this method then i suggest using my method in post 674

I forgot one thing, be sure to delete the .txt part of the file name, so that the filenames are:
Patch.reg
Patch2.reg
instead of
Patch.reg.txt
Patch2.reg.txt
I did not do it, but the hosting service messed up my filenames.

Here are two serials that work for MS office enterprise 2007 and do not require activation and validation. (These keys are VLK keys which do not require activation)
KGFVY-7733B-8WCK9-KTG64-BC7D8
DBXYD-TF477-46YM4-W74MH-6YDQ8
If you want a patch here are two Virus Free registry files (Checked by VirusTotal!)
Patch One is located here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/mmujcrwjnn2/Patch.reg
Patch two is located here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/jndi1znz0rm/Patch2.reg
These have been created by me, so you can be sure they’re virus free.
Patch one causes your serial to change to
KGFVY-7733B-8WCK9-KTG64-BC7D8
Patch two causes your serial to become
DBXYD-TF477-46YM4-W74MH-6YDQ8
Use either one. Before patching make sure any ms office programs are not running. Download file, double click it and click yes. This patch only works with Office Enterprise 2007.

hey, dj, sok
i used your method and it worked, thank you!
but i was wondering, what will happen when i install service pack 2, which is scheduled to release around february and april next year, 2009? thank you!
November 16th, 2008 13:20
This doesot work at all… in a day all the progemas you downloaded will stop, dont delete the previous word if it is loded on your computer… just out and buy it :/ hudge waste of time
November 11th, 2008 13:29
This only works for awhile until u get the document to lock up and which u cnt edit it anymore.
I have installed the version of home and student 2007 package and followed this step to unistalled it.
1. changed the Proof.xml file back to AlwaysInstalled (make sure it spelt the same way!) then u can uninstalled the software. –> C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\
If u dnt have access to changed the file then do this.
Right-clicked on the proof.xml file and choose properties –> in the security tab, click on the user group that ur logd on 2 then hit the edit button –> give the user full control and save.
I then downloaded the 60 trails from the website http://trial.trymicrosoftoffice.com/trialnewzealand/default.aspx?re_ms=oo&culture=en-NZ
–> pick a product, I choose the pro version –> click on the download now, if might ask u to register so just do that
–> download both of the files
–> then u have to download these cracks to replace the files from http://rapidshare.com/files/95093505/MS_office_2007_ultimate_RTM_and_SP1_Activation.zip.html
–> read instruction first b4 installing it
Cheers,

November 11th, 2008 00:40
thx man for this help… it really works! Good Job
November 10th, 2008 04:26
Had it working for a good 4-5 months but today all of a sudden stopped working.. Think they might have patched it or something?
November 9th, 2008 20:36
I’m having problems too… All office programs are blocked!
November 9th, 2008 07:46
thanx man, this really worked!
Now i have MSO 07, and it works perfect;
-No asking for activation with product key
-Work full functionally
I dont know why people are having problems.
The post that says it only works for a day;I have mine for a week now (and going).
November 9th, 2008 06:55
Same with me.. the only thing it did for me was to remove the question asking me if i want to activate Office.. But i still can’t type or change any files… Anyone has any solutions ?
November 6th, 2008 12:15
How would i make this work with a preinstalled trial that came with computer and it has already expired?
November 5th, 2008 05:33
awesom.. man…
it really works..
some problem occurs if u r using vista to change the owner ship..
to resolve the change ownership problem do this
go to
CONTROL PANEL
> > USER ACCOUNT
> > > TURN USER ACCOUNT CONTROL ON OFF
> > > > DISABLE UAC
> > > > > RESTART OS
November 5th, 2008 03:41
i cant save it
November 4th, 2008 08:01
It worked for a day, then quit and became a file reader. Sorta got excited and then disappointed. I think MS has already corrected this hack in newer versions of the download trail versions. Had to go through the long complicated process of the online MS Office 2007 uninstall instructions since couldn’t uninstall any other way. If you do have to do this, I solved my reinstall of old Office version by doing a system restore.
November 3rd, 2008 09:00
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God bless you sir/maam lol

November 1st, 2008 15:12
Merci beaucoup / Thank you so much
November 1st, 2008 13:11
Nah, this is not actually working, yeah it stopped from asking activation but the office wont work anymore after it expires. All the features will be locked and cannot be use anymore and it makes you hard to uninstall the application afterwards.
November 1st, 2008 05:55
I think you wont be able to remove MS Office if this file has been modified.
SO i recomend you save this info to change the file again in case you need to uninstall.
If you are no able to type, this hack wont work, i think is after it expires.
October 31st, 2008 23:30
Wow, it works! Thanks a lot man!

October 23rd, 2008 13:27
It really works!!!
Thanks a lot
October 23rd, 2008 13:07
im here to tell you that this actually works. this probably sounds like an infomercial but seriously it does. i downloaded the trial version in june this year and after 60 days is stopped working like they said. so i was looking to get another free trial, but i came across this. so i did it and the enter product key screen that used to come up when i turned on ms word or excel stopped coming up and at the top of the screen where it used to say trial version now just says ms word or ms excel. thanks so much it works if you do it right!!!
October 23rd, 2008 01:01
Awesome, actually works!
October 22nd, 2008 15:11
will this hack also wowrk for extra suite office products like vizio or project?

Thanks, works perfectly.
October 21st, 2008 10:15
try going back into the proof.xml file and switching neverinstalled back to alwaysinstalled. At least the product key box will pop up.
October 20th, 2008 22:08
Ok, so after 600 pointless posts let’s summarize. This “hack” should actually be called “How to get Office to lock up after 25 uses.
Now, to the morons who say this hack works, let me suggest either that you have not used it 25 times yet, or you’re just happy you were able to uninstall it after the “hack” was reversed.
News flash; IF IT HAD TO BE UNINSTALLED BECAUSE OF LACK UP, THE HACK DOES NOT WORK!
I have read through all 600 posts, and here’s my question: Is there a fix for this BESIDES uninstalling? Post 266 is the only actual fix I see here, so:
CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THAT THE FIX ON POST 266 WORKS?
And please, if you respond, DO NOT JUST SAY “This works” or “this does not work”. There are a thousand suggestions floating around. Please specify what you mean by “this”.
October 16th, 2008 23:29
merci !! merci !! et merci !! très bonne explication
October 15th, 2008 06:35
MS Office stop working how do I fix it anyone know
October 15th, 2008 02:11
guys.. if your ms office gets locked and you cannot unistall, just change back the xml file.. from neverinstalled back to Alwaysinstalled. save it and you should be able to unistall the trial. Not a crack to get your ms office working again but at least you get a choice of uninstaling it..
October 14th, 2008 20:22
I thank you for your instructions. I was able to use the software for about 2-3 wks and now it “locked” me out again. I cannot type on any of my saved files. Any suggestion?
October 14th, 2008 19:20
hello it is nice to find this but i faced few problems like the following
this will work out .. for first time.. after connecting with internet you loose the validity and will not able to even uninstall the office suite. so please explain how to uninstal this
October 14th, 2008 10:46

For some odd reason, my whole Office 2003 just wouldn’t work anymore– asking to input the disk (which I’ve misplaced already, 2 years being the excuse) so I had to find a way to access all my word documents.
This helped a lot, thanks.

Hi, I did this about 2 months ago and I received an Email this morning saying my trial has officially ended with Microsoft.
Despite this hack it still disabled my account and I can no longer get it to work.
I’ve retried the hack and all the right registries are deleted and the “neverInstalled” is still in its place, but I can no longer access Office 2007 properly.
Help anyone?
October 5th, 2008 21:51
I installed it on Vista.
It seems to work, but in reality it doesn’t work.
Alright, the messages do not appear, but as Jason experienced, after x number of tries, everything becomes readonly.
Trouble: you cannot make a clean uninstall. So it is just a fake hack.
My opinion: don’t waste your time with this!
October 5th, 2008 10:47
Thank you so much dude!
It works really well once you figure out how to grant yourself permission to change the files.

September 29th, 2008 22:33
Don’t work after 25 times you open this.
The edit on XML file (always to never) only removes the reminder/activation message. thats it!!!
September 29th, 2008 18:29

you spelled browse, brose. HAHAHA N00B!
September 19th, 2008 09:59
I used it for about a week now it says that it is locked, is there a way to fix this?
September 19th, 2008 04:43
Followed the exact path in the regedit, and nothing that the article creator mentioned was in there, and I am using the exact version that he mentioned…
Terrific…
September 18th, 2008 05:37
This worked for about a month, now it opens and let’s me see the file but not modify in any way, it say’s it’s locked and the bottom states “This modification is not allowed because the document is locked” and the button to change it is also locked/grayed as well as other simple function buttons.
Again it worked for a while, so everything was done right.
September 17th, 2008 19:48
the hack isnt really a hack at all. I have tried usng it and after a while the office programme still locks. whats the way around it or do i just unistall the office???

September 11th, 2008 12:05
For everyone trying to figure out the last part of this “so-called” hack, I couldn’t figure out the last part but I found this easy way to save the xml.file. When you open the “proof.en” folder, either move the file or right click and export to desktop, when you attempt this, windows will ask you for admin permission, click ok. Once you get it on desktop do the whole right click “open with notepad” thing and do the always to never procedure and it will save. Then move the folder back to where it was previously, it will ask for admin permission again. This should work without messing with all the admin permission stuff. Just to let you know this isnt really a hack or whatever you want to call it. Still trying to figure out how to make MS Office work without any of this garbage hacking!
September 11th, 2008 10:12
hey! I followed all of your instructions, and it works and all, but so u know if it still expires after 60 days or not. how do u know when it will expire?(if it does). or does it only get rid of the trial version text.
September 10th, 2008 21:38
i have same problem..everything is locked, so this thing doesn’t work as it should..does anybody know some other way to hack office or how to fix this problem when everything became locked?

It still locks up after after a bit.. I assumed it would work so i didn’t time it but i assume it worked for the same period as the trial was supposed to be functional..
September 9th, 2008 09:08
I cant save it! I tried playing around with security, but all i cant get is “special permissions”
September 8th, 2008 12:21
For any one having trouble doing the last part where you have to save, I have figured it out.
If you are unable to save the file after modifying it, you have to first right click on the proof.xml file and go to properties and then click on the security tab. You have to toy around with the users and permissions so you can have clearance to modify the file. Also make sure you are logged in as an Administrator. I just got it to work for my self after many trys, so don’t give up!

“the modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”
similar to another poster
perhaps I downloaded a windows security update or something that nullified the hack?
August 31st, 2008 20:03
Ok, forget it, I’m French and I had to look in “Fichiers Communs” instead of “Common Files” ^^
TYVM for the tip !
August 31st, 2008 14:30
Thanks! Works like Swiss watches!
August 31st, 2008 09:46
Hi,
I’ve tried this tip, but I’ve encoutered some problems.
I had installed Office 2007 with entering the serial number, so I canceled the keys with regedit.
But when I browse into C:\Program Files\Common Files… I have no folder called “Office12″. I got Windows XP SP3.
Do you know where that can come from and how to fix it ?
August 31st, 2008 02:16
well we have been having trouble with my daughters computer and we where wanting to know the trail key\code to the microsoft office 2007
thanks
August 29th, 2008 22:09
This worked great until I had to restart my computer. When I tried to use Word after the restart all of my documents are locked. I get this message at the bottom of the screen when I try to edit the document
“the modification is not allowed because the selection is locked”
Any idea how to fix this. I am running Vista.
Thanks!
August 29th, 2008 09:58

Under the folder 12.0 I did not have a folder called “registratio”. I just have “MSOexample” and “User Settings”, what do I do?! D:
August 29th, 2008 02:59
It worked for two days, then all Office programs were essentially disabled (no editing/saving allowed).
My advice to anyone considering this hack: don’t waste your time. If you really want Office, just do a Google search for “office 2007 enterprise torrent” and download a torrent. You’ll need a torrent client such as uTorrent.
August 28th, 2008 10:17
it worked!!!
thank you.
August 28th, 2008 02:42
Thank you very much, that’s it what I was looking for!
August 26th, 2008 22:32
thanks a lot bro!!! hope to learn more HACKS form you… hehehe
August 26th, 2008 11:06
In Vista, totally works!
Once you open the file in your browser, right click on Proof. Scroll down to properties. Then go to security. Click on USERS then click EDIT. Once you’ve done that, give yourself permission to everything. It okay.
Then open that link in notepad, change the part talked about in the article and… ‘poof!’ totally works!
THANKS! With a teachers salary, you saved me over $100!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 26th, 2008 05:26
Thanks it seems to have worked
I’ll just have to wait until the trial is up to see if it did though.

August 24th, 2008 15:05
made it work =P those people who can’t save, scroll up =P go to properties -> security -> then edit to allow yourself full access to modify the file
August 24th, 2008 13:51

hey guys, just so everyone knows, I found out through work cutty-like that Microsoft will be making SP1 on Office mandatory in about 4-6 months so its probably worth it to download sp1 before you do all this. otherwise you have to do it over again. heads up cuz this place is awesome
August 20th, 2008 06:14
Thank you! Thanks for the info.
August 19th, 2008 00:38

August 15th, 2008 12:24
It worked for a while, but then it locked down. Then I couldn’t uninstall it.
In order to uninstall it, I needed to get the stuff that I deleted back. So this is what I did:
1. I clicked on the Microsoft Office Button in Word (the round button on the top left hand side).
2. Then I clicked ‘Word Options’.
3. On the list that pops up, I chose ‘run Microsoft Office Diagnostics’.
I let it do its thing, and it reinstalled the verification (original Proof.en) on my computer. Now I’m able to uninstall.
Hope this helps!

thanks.i screwed sumthing up trying to do this hack and now i cant uninstall the trial version of office.im have Vista installed,if this help
August 7th, 2008 04:31
look
Found out how to uninstall
1. In Windows Explorer, browse to the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\
2. Right click on Proof.XML file, select “Open With…” in the right click menu.
3. In the “Open With” window, select Notepad to be used to open the XML file. In Vista, if you can’t see the Notepad option, simply double click the “Other Programs” to unhide it.
4. Scroll down to the bottom of the Proof.XML to locate the following lines:
5. Change the neverInstalled to AlwaysInstalled so that the line looks like following:
6. Save the Proof.xml file. In Windows Vista, you may need to take ownership and grant full access permission to yourself before able to modify the file.
7. You can uninstall.
Did it myself works perfectly
if you need something else email me at dark-knight@aol.com
August 7th, 2008 04:27
HELLO i really need some help !!!
This did not work for me. I did the saving the proof file in a different location and pasting it over the original like someone mentioned. There were also proof.es and proof.fr folders in which I also changed the “always” to “never”. No go.
I am guessing this doesn’t work for all versions of Office?
What I have is:
Microsoft Office Word 2007 (12.0.4518.1014)
Part of Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007

hey i tried this hack like last week it didn’t work and i screwed everything up and now office wont uninstall i get a messege saying “setup cannot continue because a required file is either or corrupted or not avaliable,run setup from original source disc or download location. and i just downloaded office trial and it still gives me the same message. what can i do?? mabie its because i deleted proof.en and replaced it with another file with the same stuff anyways i really wanna know HOW TO DELETE IT??? help please
August 2nd, 2008 03:44
thanks man..had almost left it after getting frustrated. its a lot of help to us who cant afford to buy original softwares all the time..
August 1st, 2008 23:04
I did this once before and it gave me a little while longer to use the program, now it has expired again and the hack won’t work. How can I access my documents? I am desperate because ALL of our important stuff is on this program and I really need to get to it.
Thanks so much!
August 1st, 2008 02:45
Hi J,
so i followed all the instruction right up to the part where i’m suppose to save the proof.xml file only my pc won’t let me save it. i keep getting notifications that say: Cannot create the C:…..blablabla…proof.XML file. Make sure that the path and file name are correct.
Could this have smth to do with the fact that my ms 2007 trial version already expired? i got it pre-installed on my laptop with vista!!!
please help me!!!

July 31st, 2008 23:04
GREAT!!!!
I was having troubles with the “activation key” of my office 2007 (previously installed at my computer)
I though about buying that (student version)… But It is a price in US, another in Spain, and a different one in Brazil… (sound like a “joke”, but it`s not!)
OBS.: I`m a Brazilian, living at Spain.
THANK u SO MUCH!!!!!
July 30th, 2008 23:33
Hey, that’s fantastic thanks….
July 29th, 2008 21:43
hey J thanks for your reply, i tried what u suggested and it still wont let me uninstall it, when i did the hack for the first time it gave me 15 uses before i had to purchase this was after it had already expired. so i opened and closed it 15 times and after that it wouldent let me in. so now when i try to uninstall it a message comes up saying “setup cannot continue bcause a required file is corrupted or missing”???….anymore suggestions
July 29th, 2008 21:17
@Rami: You didn’t screw anything up. The hack is what prevents you from uninstalling it. Just reverse the hack, change “neverInstalled” back to “AlwaysInstalled” and you should be able to uninstall the program through Control Panel.
Wouldn’t let you use the program without buying after 25 uses, right?

July 20th, 2008 15:20
This “hack” DID, did being the key word, at one time work!!!! I have Office 07 installed and working for 6+ months using this, including use of Windows Update!!!
MS released a new installer that checks for this now.. All this hack now accomplishes is that it stops the “nag screen” to activate, but still requires it (after 25 uses or 60 days from first use)
July 20th, 2008 14:01
It only stops the notification window from popping up everytime you work in Office. It doesnt actually activate microsoft office.
July 19th, 2008 11:31
THANKS i tried all possible methods but only this one works
July 19th, 2008 07:31
works beautifully! thanks! ^^
July 17th, 2008 10:51
only post working or not working if you have tried opening the program more than 25 times!!!!
So far this hasnt worked for me or most people past 25 times by the looks of it.
But I would like to know if anyone has used this method and kept the program running for more than 25 times of opening.
Please let us know proper feedback not. yay I got it working for 5 mins your are the best etc.
July 17th, 2008 10:49
All these guides are fking bull shut.
You either get prompted by the activate by phone or if you actually do manage to get rid of the trial with a key it only lasts for 25 times of opening the program then shuts down to read only mode.
Stop posting this Bull fking sht, or find a real crack/fix.
The only reason people comment saying it works is because it does but only for 25 times of opening the program.
dont waste your time with this shut
July 16th, 2008 22:52
I have office 2007, running vista premium..unfortunately doesnt work! changed and saved the proof.en file no probs, but when using word or excel, features are still disabled. Seems all i have done is remove the pop up window that requests activation key. Office 2007 was pre-installed on my laptop with 60 day trial, thats now expired. Can anyone help..thanks in advance..Leg
July 15th, 2008 17:05
it did’t work….. your are just stop notifying the user to activate the product….
you can only open and edit before 25 times of openning….
July 14th, 2008 01:00
Hey thanks a lot thumbs ^. Worked perfectly fine, but now I’m having the issue of uninstalling it. Can you suggest anything that might help?

July 4th, 2008 05:35

July 4th, 2008 00:06
Jhon dime ¿si te funciona bien para que lo quieres borrar? A mi es que me funcionó solo durante un par de días.
July 3rd, 2008 23:59
hahaha dude your such a moron. Elite is the person who wrote this. He’s also the guy who rewrote the .dll files for the hack that really works perfectly. This thread would work better if people like you shut your mouth when you don’t know what you’re talking about. You should be thanking him you d-bag hahaha.
when everyone on the wall is saying thank you, you should probably see who we’re thanking first dumb ass. i’m out.
July 3rd, 2008 23:54
It worked during the 3 first days, but now it doesn’t let me make any change.
Please, can someone tell me something about?
Thanks
July 3rd, 2008 18:59
This thread would be a lot more useful if that illiterate moron el|te It´s a Trap would stay away.

Hi Just thought I leave a comment I installed on Windows XP Pro. the current trial version (skipping putting in a the serial number). and making the mod the article suggested.
It is working fine.
thanks,
I hope it continues to do so but as its only the second day of install can’t comment on that.
Didn’t have any issue’s that Vista seem to produce.
I did opt out of doing any updates as the article did say you will not be able to do any updates or access anything online.
June 14th, 2008 07:20
It worked great for a while. But now its locking me out. And it won’t let me remove it from my computer. It says something about it being corrupeted.
June 13th, 2008 20:33
Hi!
The first time i followed the steps and worked! Today however it suddenly seems to be re-locked.
I followed the steps (again), but I’m not allowed to change the Proof file. I made a copy of the Proof file, edited it and put it back. Unfortunately Word still doesn’t work. Who can help me out of the read-only mode?
Regards,
Rolf

You need a key of final activation no key try 60 days at first. Then, in the conversion of software into final version, software will want an Internet activation or phones for verification ., Apply information zip.
June 11th, 2008 19:39
If you enter a legal 60 day key, and then delete all these keys, the program will stop either way. I suggest just get another trial

Hmmm.
I did what requires and now it’s locking me out.
What to do?

for all you people that say it does work, it doesn’t. because it doesn’t update it just stops the activation process. there are better ways to do it. AND have it update. if it doesn’t updat it doesnt work in my book.

Ok, I’ve been working on this for about a half hour and it’s driving me nuts. I downloaded the trial and i closed everything. I go to the exact location in the registry, but I don’t see Product ID or the other thing I’m supposed to delete. I have: Product Name, Product Namebrand… blah blah. Is this because I don’t have windows vista; but I have XP?
May 21st, 2008 02:48
thank you sooooooooo much,have been trying to unlock this for ages now,am using windows vista.

i did this to my office that came preinstalled onto my computer and it locked up after a couple weeks so i downloaded the trial version and did the same thing. this worked for a couple weeks but now it has locked up again. can anyone help? i am running windows vista.
May 18th, 2008 16:04
it works dude, thx very much!
May 16th, 2008 22:55

May 15th, 2008 18:28
Thanks.. Vista users try this..
For Windows Vista users: you won´t be able to rewrite the file on its original location. Save it with a different name (e.g. “proof2″) in some other location (e.g. my documents). Then delete the original file, rename “proof2″ as “proof” and move it to the orignal folder. You must have full permission to do that.
It did work
May 15th, 2008 01:13
When search DigitalProductID
ProductID only found the keys of Windows Vista. If delete this may be that Vista don’t work? Thanks.
May 14th, 2008 06:52

Just in case, it’s better to back the original proof file up, if you make a mistake, then it is hard to undo.

This is bullshit.
this doesnt work, it just gets rid of the warning message to activate MS Office. It doesnt actually activate MS Office.
The programs still lock up after 30 days of use.
Fail…
May 8th, 2008 02:12
For those of you that cannot read or understand english (apparently):
Uninstalling is easy, I’ve done it twice. simply go back to proof and change neverInstalled back to AlwaysInstalled. Thats it.

Joanne, otsego and others. If you want a really working method for activating office 2007 (it works for all editions) take a look at #253 and following posts HERE.
Was this helpful for you?
April 17th, 2008 01:09
If you have done this hack and want to uninstall Microsoft office than just change neverInstalled back to AlwaysInstalled(make sure the A and I are capitalized). Voila, its that simple.
April 17th, 2008 01:01
I strongly suggest that everyone downloads an Office trial and then finds a keygen, rather than use this method. It works for a while, but now I am now stuck unable to uninstall software that has all the features disabled and I don’t have time to go through all the steps listed by “Frustration Station.” This has cost me a lot of time!!
April 17th, 2008 00:28
As with Ryan, I did this and it worked great for a couple of weeks then disabled all the features.
April 14th, 2008 16:38
I feel the need to post. Many of the problems discussed (along with their answers) did nothing to quell my anger towards Microsoft’s office products. I have purchased new computers and new operating systems which have voided my rights to use my legally purchased versions of office, so I turned to less legal means. Being a college student, you don’t get a whole lot of time to screw around with money or (dis)functional software. The problem I ran into was not being able to uninstall software previously installed, especially the trial versions. I attempted at using the uninstall software that many of you have recommended, but to no avail. It hasn’t worked completely, yet, but I think I found a way to completely rid myself of ALL office files with much less frustration. (Trust me, I tried control panel/program uninstall method. It only gave me the same error message “Setup cannot continue because a required file is either corrupted or not available. Run Setup again from the original source disc or download location.” After about 6 hours of research (I REALLY needed to fix this so I could do my homework. My grade, and about $700 of class fees depended upon it!) I came to this website, hosted by none-other than Microsoft. (Their one saving grace) If you go to this website, it will show you one more location other than the registry that these tricky Microsoft files will be hiding.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218/en-us
Simply follow the directions, and you should be on your way to reinstalling in no time.
And for heaven’s sake, if they tell you to create a back up for files in the registry, DO IT. YOU DO NOT WANT TO HAVE THIS HASSLE YOU FOR SIX HOURS.
