Note: For the people trying this in 2024 download the 16.27.0 version manually or from the below “Link to download”. Do not download the above originally mentioned Official Link - Office 2019 Volume License 16.27.0 because it wont work . Then, download the serializer and install. After installing serializer you are able to use MSoffice 2019 without any sign in and activation. Link to download: https://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/C1297A47-86C4-4C1F-97FA-950631F94777/MacAutoupdate/Microsoft_Office_16.27.19071500_Installer.pkg https://gist.github.com/zthxxx/9ddc171d00df98cbf8b4b0d8469ce90a/raw/Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer.pkg

hey everybody I'd been using MS office on my Mac for the last 5 years, but yesterday updated my word and afterwards I couldn't edit/copy etc. I tried reinstalling several times but only the word not the entire suite and every time is the same - the program won't start unless I update it on the App Store. Now I am considering reinstalling the whole office suite but I am worried not to lose the other apps.
Does anyone have similar problem? Is it possible to somehow repair the word only or if I have to do the whole process all over , how to be sure that I will uninstall it properly.

And is there any cracked version of autocad for Mac also xD

this still works for me on Mac , just make sure you have Office version 16.27.19071500
steps :

  1. Download Office & Serializer from the below link
  2. Run Microsoft removal tool first then
  3. clean your Mac, delete all the Microsoft apps , and clean anything related to Microsoft that exist in the Library/Group Containers
  4. Then install office
  5. Run Serializer
  6. create/overwrite the file com.microsoft.office.licensingV2.plist  in /Library/Preferences
  7. Copy everything from com.microsoft.office.licensingV2.plist
  8. IMP: first time when you will open Outlook it will ask for update permission -> deny auto update
  9. deny automatic data usage sharing with Microsoft , you can make it force quit from Activity terminal

Download links :
Official Link - Microsoft_Office_16.27.19071500_Installer.pkg for apps just install do not open until to run

Microsoft_Office_2019_VL_Serializer.pkg
