Posted in Life on October 3rd, 2012You’ve installed Office 2010, but when you try and activate it you get an error “Please try again later (0x8007000D)”
Click on Start, then right-click on Computer and choose Properties. In the next window, click on Device Manager. If this opens an empty window, follow this procedure:
- Log on to the machine as a local machine admin (<computername>\administrator)
- Run Regedit as Administrator
- Expand HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum
- Right-click on Root and choose Permissions
- Click Advanced, then Ownership tab, and take ownership as your current user name. “OK” out of property windows.
- Go back into Permissions and on the rights tab grant Full to Everyone, click OK
- Follow the instructions here: http://www.fixkb.com/2012/03/error-0x8007000d-when-activating-office-2010.html
With any luck, Office will now activate.
