But any user (with correct license) can log in as themselves and click install on up to 5 devices!

Thanks. The first page took me to where I could buy O365 in Kroners. LOL
I did get a package created and can install it from a local share. That's great, and I think it will work better in the future.
However my local install on my PC is still not licensed properly. When I go to the portal
I deactivated one install from a user's PC.
Now when I have 4 installs under my account on the admin portal.
I installed from my image, but still only see 4 installs. And when I check my license with the tool it still says I am in the timebased period.
I'm going to head over to the user's PC, uninstall, and reinstall with the package. Just to see where I get from there.
