    Question How to backup Office 2010 activation?

    Hi,
    I have installed and (online) activated Microsoft office 2010 ProfessionalPlus.

    I want to know if there is any way to backup the activation, so that in case of re-installation I could still use office- without having the need to connect it online for activation.

    The reason is that I may not have internet connection, and in that case I will not be able to use office.

    Thanks,
    Grr

    Did this:

    Here is how some are saying it can be done:
    1) Firstly; stop the service OPPSVC (if it is running).
    2) Copy the following files to a safe location:
    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OfficeSoftwareProtectionP latform\ tokens.dat
    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OfficeSoftwareProtectionP latform\Cache\ cache.dat

    @Grr, Have you checked that it works? The files may vary depending on your version of your MS office.

    No, didn't checked. Just saved in case any disaster occurs.....
    btw I'm creating system images, so that might now even require any of these tricks
