"'Get genuine Office' notification banner A site by the person behind KMS_VL_ALL makes mentioned of this issue that has started occurring from a Feb 2021 update: Here is a screenshot of the nag warning and also the product activated screen:

I have since tried MAS_1.4 and then KMS_VL_ALL_AIO-41r, both of which run and report success, however I still get the "Action Needed your license isn't genuine" banner across the top of my Office programs. I originally used KMS_VL_ALL_AIO-38f which worked fine up until today. I should note that even though I get the non-genuine message, Office still says "product activated" in the product information system.which is a bit contradictory.Īlso, when I run "check activation status" in KMS-VL_ALL it reads "The Software Licensing Service reported that the product was activated but the owner should verify the Product Use Rights". Any advise on how to fix this? Thank you. I spent a huge amount of time customizing my Outlook install to fit my workflow, I would hate to have to uninstall and reinstall. That worked great for about a month, now when I open an office program I have a "Action Needed your license isn't genuine, and you may be a victim of software counterfeiting." message. I activated Office 2019 using the instructions found on r/piracy page "Office 2019 Retail Direct DL Links", using the C2R-R2V-AIO and KMS_VL_ALL_AIO tools.
