So if the license is activated like this and then you stop and run decrap on the system with office 'apps included that in the section $GoodApps like this ($GoodApps = 'store|calculator|sticky|windows.photos|soundrecorder|mspaint|snippingtool| sktop') things will be OK.
but it's not listed in control panel -> programs to remove. Once that's done, this particular office license key will be in the account along with a stub installer.īack on the computer, office appears to work fine, Word, etc. I do this generally with a distribution list for the particular company I'm working with. When we receive the computers, you can activate office by launching word and entering your MS account credentials.
This works fine, at least with all the new Dell machines I've bought over the past few years (2016, 2019 office)
