Hello
I have Windows 10 Professional 64bit on a Lenovo laptop on which I need to run Office 2007 Professional - and not anything else, for compatibility purposes. I have 2 other laptops with the exact same setup Windows 10 Pro/Office 2007 working perfectly fine, along with various old versions of Visual Studio. Compatibility matters a lot.
However, on this brand new laptop that replaces one that was stolen, after having had problems activating Windows (resolved by activating after a phone call) I'm now having a problem installing Office 2007 Pro!!
I thought it may be due to the license still being "bound" to the stolen laptop, so I purchased another license, still shrink wrapped.
I have the license in hand, with the Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity color sicker and QR code, and unless counterfeiters have grown an interest in 13 years old software, I'm 100% positive it is legit. It says X13-90658 and it has another number starting with 00132- and ending in -899 below the license key. I'd prefer not to post my license key to avoid problems.
I have a license for each installation of Office 2007 on my laptops. I can NOT install any other version for compatibility reasons (interfacing with scripts). Now I have 2 licenses for this laptops, 0 of which allow me to install...
What can I do? Office 2007 is not exactly sold anymore... so I don't think I can just go to a Microsoft Store.
Thanks for any help!
