Office 2016 Product Key Redeemed But License Not Showing in Account
Hello, I purchased Office 2016 and I'm facing an unusual issue with my product key activation. **The Problem:** When I try to activate Office 2016 with my product key, the system tells me the key was redeemed by the email address c****email address removed for privacy reasons. I have access to this email account, so I tried logging into office.com to check, but surprisingly there is NO Office license associated with this account. **What I've Done:** 1. I contacted Microsoft support. The first agent confirmed no Office was linked to that email address. 2. After a few minutes, the same agent then confirmed that the product key WAS indeed activated on that email account - but they said they couldn't help much because Office 2016 is already end-of-life. 3. When I try to sign into Office apps (Word, Excel, etc.) with that email, it says the account has no Office license. 4. However, when I use the product key, it says it's been redeemed on that email account. **The Contradiction:** There's a clear disconnect: the product key system says it's redeemed on my email, but the Office account management system says there's no license on that same email. **My Question:** How can I proceed to use my Office 2016 license? Is there a way to recover or re-link the license, or migrate it despite Office 2016 being end-of-life? Thank you for any guidance.
Unable to complete Partner Center Enrollment
Hello, I am trying to enroll in the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program. I can get through the process (fill out company information, etc.) but when I go to the final acceptance form and click submit, it constantly throws an error: I can sign in to the Partner Center but cannot open a support ticket because the "contact support" dialogue has no entry for workspace and will not let me enter anything: Is there a workaround to submit a ticket on this?
Announcing the retirement for Office Online Server
What’s changing? Microsoft is announcing the end of support and retirement for Office Online Server effective December 31, 2026. After this date, Office Online Server will no longer receive security updates, bug fixes, or technical support from Microsoft. This change is part of our ongoing commitment to modernizing productivity experiences and focusing on cloud-first solutions. To help stay secure and compliant, begin planning now to move to supported options, such as Microsoft 365. What does end of support mean? No more security updates. Systems running Office Online Server may be vulnerable to the evolving threat landscape. No bug fixes or technical support. Potential compliance risks. Unsupported software may put regulated organizations at risk of non-compliance. Why is this happening? Office Online Server was designed to provide browser-based versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote for on-premises environments. As organizations have adopted Microsoft 365, Microsoft is focusing its browser-based Office app investments on Office for the Web to deliver secure, collaborative, and feature-rich experiences through Microsoft 365. What is the alternative for Office Online Server? If your organization relies on Office Online Server for browser-based document editing and collaboration, our recommended path is to transition to Microsoft 365, which includes cloud-powered versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Microsoft 365 offers: Real-time collaboration and sharing. Automatic updates and ongoing support. Enhanced security and compliance features. Integration with Microsoft Teams, Outlook, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business. Access to Microsoft 365 Copilot for AI-powered productivity. Learn more about Microsoft 365. And for organizations with 150+ licenses, consider engaging Microsoft FastTrack to support your planning and migration to Microsoft 365. For organizations using SharePoint Server Subscription Edition or Exchange Server Subscription Edition, Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise and Office LTSC 2024 remain supported desktop clients for viewing and editing documents hosted on those servers. If your organization uses Office Online Server to host Excel workbooks in Power BI Report Server, that functionality will no longer be supported. Alternatives include viewing workbooks in the Excel desktop application or migrating to the Power BI service. Prepare to make your move Support for Office Online Server ends December 31, 2026. Continuing to use it after this date may expose your organization to security, compliance, and productivity risks. We therefore strongly encourage all customers to begin planning their transition to supported solutions today. Microsoft is committed to helping you prepare. Use the resources below to help you get started: Explore Microsoft 365 offerings for modern, cloud-powered collaboration. Engage your Microsoft account team and Microsoft FastTrack (150+ seats) for migration planning. See the instructions for how to disconnect Office Online Server from a SharePoint Server farm. Thank you for being a Microsoft customer!
Legal Info Page Not Loading – 40+ Days, No Support Resolution
Hello, I'm posting here hoping to get some visibility on an issue that has been unresolved for over 40 days despite multiple support interactions. Issue: The Legal Information page under Account Settings in Partner Center does not load. The page simply spins indefinitely. This prevents me from updating my company name. Impact: This is blocking customer onboarding and causing direct financial harm to my business. Due to this error, our account remains unverified, which is preventing us from launching our web application. What I've done: Opened support ticket #2512180010000713 on 18 December 2025 Provided HAR file and PSR recording as requested Submitted escalation request (was merged into original ticket without action) Support response: Every 2 days I receive an identical message: "Your issue is under review currently. As soon as we have an update, we will inform you." No actual investigation, no timeline, no resolution. Is anyone from Microsoft able to look into this? Has anyone else experienced this issue or have advice on how to escalate effectively? Thank you.Identity Verification Rejected in Partner Center – What Are the Next Steps?
