How to Fix 'Not Genuine' Watermark on Office 365
Seeing a persistent "Product Notice: Most of the features of Word have been disabled because it hasn't been activated" or a similar 'Not Genuine' watermark on Office 365 can disrupt your workflow. This typically means your Office suite isn't properly activated, leading to reduced functionality. Fortunately, the Microsoft Activation Scripts (MAS) project offers a reliable and open-source method to resolve this.
Understanding the 'Not Genuine' Watermark
This watermark appears when Office detects that its license isn't valid or has expired. While legitimate licenses can sometimes encounter activation glitches, it's more commonly seen with unactivated or improperly activated installations. MAS provides various activation methods, including HWID (Hardware ID) activation for permanent digital licenses, Ohook for retail versions, and Online KMS for temporary, renewable activations. These methods bypass the need for traditional product keys, effectively removing the 'Not Genuine' watermark on Office 365 and restoring full functionality.
Using MAS to Activate Office 365
MAS simplifies the activation process. You can download a direct .cmd or .zip file from our website. There's NO password required for any of our downloads. Due to the nature of activation tools, your antivirus software might flag MAS. It's safe to temporarily disable your antivirus during the download and execution of the script. Once downloaded, simply run the script, select your preferred activation method (often Ohook or Online KMS for Office 365), and let MAS do the rest.
