How to remove the This Copy of Microsoft Office in not Genuine messages and keep using Microsoft Office
I recentyl posted a way to get rid of the “This Copy of Microsoft Office is not Genuine messages”, that involved getting rid of Microsoft Office itself and replace it by OpenOffice.org and Thunderbird, That is the preferred Method.
But if you are a Microsoft Lover and want to get rid only of the messages, and keep using Microsoft Office then this is what’s needed:
1- Close all the Microsoft Office Applications
2-Use the File Explorer to Navigate to your Windows System installation folder, usually:
C:\Windows\System32
or
C:\Windows\SysWow64 -for 64 bit systems-
And then locate and remove (just rename, if feel fear) the following files:
OGAVerify.exe
OGAAddin.dll
3-Ready! Start any Microsft Office, and you will see that is fast again and no more annoying messages.
