Windows 10 – Changing the Office 2007 Product Key.
I have to upgrade several computers to windows 10. They currently have Win7 Pro and Office 2007 Pro. I want to do a “Fresh” install of Widows 10 and not an “Upgrade”. I have created an image of Windows 10 (1511) using the Win7 key and Office 2007 key – both Win10 and Office 2007 activate OK.
Now the problem, when I apply this image to another computer it asks for a Key to activate Win10, no problem I just put in the Win7 Key from the sticker on the computer. I can’t change the Office Key to the correct one for that computer. When you are running Windows 7 you can use this MicrosoftFixit50755.msi to change the key, but it will not work in Windows 10. I have also tried to change the key in the Registry, however there is no any entry in Win10 under Office/12.0/Registration Thanks in advance, John A |

You'd have done better to install but not activate Office 2007. The relevant product keys could then be used to activate each installation afterwards. That said, you'd need to have identical hardware for the imaging to work, so I'd have thought the one product key would work on all of them - in which case you'd just need to keep the others as proof of licensing.
