As you know, when you install a new Microsoft product it usually only contains a free trial license for a few days.
and the problem is that the license is not automatically deleted when it expires. And this leads to a paradox that keeps saying “Most features are disabled” or “Windows is not activated” even after activating them using a valid license.
Apart from that, some of you have used KMS license to activate your Windows or Office and now you just want to delete it to use another product key. This is similar to the problem I just mentioned. And to solve this problem, take the following steps.
Steps to clear or uninstall your Office license
Step 1: Open command prompt as administrator.
Step 2: Copy/write on command promt to know is the license key you want to remove.
cscript “%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs” /dstatus
If you see an error, try this command.
cscript “%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs” /dstatus
Note: If Office 2019 or 2016 the codename is “Office16”. But if you are using Office 2010/2013, replace “Office16” with “Office14” or “Office15”.
Step 3: Copy and run these commands to remove the license. Note: replace “VMFTK or WFG99” with the last 5 characters of your product key.
cscript “%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs” /unpkey:VMFTK
If you see an error, try this command.
cscript “%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs” /unpkey:VMFTK
Done ! license of office successfully removed
But If you want remove, clear or uninstall your Windows license
Step 1: Open command prompt with admin rights.
Step 2: Execute this command.
cscript slmgr.vbs /upk&cscript slmgr.vbs /cpky
Done! The license you want to remove is uninstalled successfully.
