I am tripping over a small downside with my colleague’s laptop computer and I am in search of what I am lacking. How do I dig out the supportive elements that validate the license? The model works simply advantageous; it is simply activating the license is a matter.
The outdated laptop computer is a 2015 MBA. It has an set up of MS Workplace on there that’s 2021, Model 16.89, construct 24090815, with an LTSC license. After I pull up the “About… ” I can see the License ID and all of that.
The brand new laptop computer is M4 MBP. I can obtain a model 16.89 however it’s known as “Workplace Professional.” When I attempt to authenticate it, the software program asks for a login. She would not have a login; she’s by no means had one. She purchased this license and that ought to have been that. I am unsure what the story is.
So, then subsequent a part of me says, okay advantageous… I am going to simply to a Migration Assistant and that’ll maintain it. The issue with that’s, I did that already. I did not wish to, however I figured I’d attempt. And after I did it, I bumped into an oft mentioned difficulty the place the goal laptop computer results in a reboot loop. The one manner out of it was to enter restoration and boot clear. So I am doing all of the transfers and installations by hand.
Now I may attempt to do the MA once more however this time solely choose Apps and “different recordsdata”. Possibly that may carry the license over with it. However I actually do not wish to find yourself lifeless once more and having to get well. So earlier than I attempt that, do any of you’ve concepts on the right way to transfer this license over with out difficulty? Possibly there are assist directories I may drag over which have that knowledge. Possibly I have to obtain a particular LTSC model of Workplace 2021 V 16.89. Possibly I can attempt one thing else.
I am hope to all enter, and than you for studying. Cheers!
