The next time that the user tries to use Microsoft Apps, Microsoft Apps contacts the Office Licensing Service on the internet to get a new licensing token. Internet connectivity Because the shared computer has to contact the Office Licensing Service on the internet to obtain or renew a licensing token, reliable connectivity between the shared computer and the internet is necessary.
Reduced functionality mode If the user is not licensed for Microsoft Apps, or if the user closed the Activate Office dialog box, no licensing token is obtained and Microsoft Apps isn't activated. Microsoft Apps is now in reduced functionality mode.
This means that the user can view and print Office documents, but can't create or edit documents. The user also sees a message in the Office program that most features are turned off. Activation limits Normally, users can install and activate Microsoft Apps only on a limited number of devices, such as 5 PCs. Microsoft allows a single user to activate Microsoft Apps on a reasonable number of shared computers in a given time period. The user gets an error message in the unlikely event the limit is exceeded.
Single sign-on recommended The use of single sign-on SSO is recommended to reduce how often users are prompted to sign in for activation.
With single sign-on configured, Microsoft Apps is activated using the user credentials that the user provides to sign in to Windows, as long as the user has been assigned a license for Microsoft Apps.
For more information, see Microsoft identity models and Azure Active Directory. Licensing token roaming Starting with Version of Microsoft Apps, you can configure the licensing token to roam with the user's profile or be located on a shared folder on the network. Previously, the licensing token was always saved to a specific folder on the local computer and was associated with that specific computer. In those cases, if the user signed in to a different computer, the user would be prompted to activate Microsoft Apps on that computer in order to get a new licensing token.
The ability to roam the licensing token is especially helpful for non-persistent VDI scenarios. To configure licensing token roaming, you can use either the Office Deployment Tool or Group Policy, or you can use Registry Editor to edit the registry. Whichever method you choose, you need to provide a folder location that is unique to the user.
The folder location can either be part of the user's roaming profile or a shared folder on the network. Microsoft Apps needs to be able to write to that folder location.
If you're using a shared folder on the network, be aware that network latency problems can adversely impact the time it takes to open Office programs. Best VPN. Browse All News Articles.
