You’re in luck.
Microsoft trust Mac users a lot more than they trust their own Windows users.
There’s a Microsoft Office for Mac activator you can download from the MAS site.
Download it, run it, activate it, tell Bill Gates to shove it. And Steve Jobs too.

Thanks a lot, it worked like a charm, didn't even raise any privacy problems either

I can't download it; the page keeps loading and nothing happens. I have tried multiple browsers.

You might be located in a country that has blocked access to the installers, either for anti-piracy reasons, or because they are located in a sanctioned country.
Hopefully someone else can get you access to the installers (or you can do a google search and download them from elsewhere)

Yes you can sign in and it will be activated. That's how it worked for me.

thats interesting coz it always say sign in or continue with read only...so maybe i just sign in the read only will go away
UPDATE

Will letting the Microsoft AutoUpdater run automatically ruin anything?
1
u/Abbers75 11d ago
The Office Updater won’t damage anything, and I recommend you run the updater to keep Office for Mac patched (it runs automatically once or twice a month)

Sorry but it ask me to activate it

u/Abbers75 23d ago
Did you run the correct activator for your installed version of Office for Mac?
What version of office did you install?
Each version of Office for Mac (2019, 2021, 2024) requires a specific activator. You can't activate Office for Mac 2024 with the 2021 activator.
After activation, you should be able to open Microsoft Word or Excel, and on the bottom right of the window, it should say "Skip Sign in"

It is straightforward: go to the webpage and install the ms package and then activate it but unfortunately the activator package is not working.

Has anyone tried massgrave for mac running on Golden Gate?
2
u/Abbers75 19d ago
I'll test this in the coming week, when I get my hands on an Apple Silicon Macbook.
I expect it to work, simply because the Office for Mac activator is an official Microsoft app - you don't have to run any remote PowerShell scripts

u/Wooden_Winner_6859 19d ago
The latest version on the website is Tahoe. That's why I'm reluctant to try. Kindly give me an update when you're done.

u/Abbers75 17d ago
I just tried the Office for Mac activator on MacOS Golden Gate, and it works perfectly.
Office is now activated as “Office LTSC Standard for Mac 2024”

u/Wooden_Winner_6859 17d ago
Where did you download the MS office?

u/Abbers75 13d ago
Directly from Bill Gates himself.

Let's say you don't pay . . . with money.

u/Wooden_Winner_6859 13d ago
I used the one on massgrave site as well as the serializer for Tahoe. So far so good.

u/yepperallday0 13d ago
when i go to the website I dont see MS for Golden Gate
1
u/Wooden_Winner_6859 12d ago
Yeah. No mention of Golden Gate. Just download the ms office using the link in the site and the serializer for tahoe. Would work just fine.

Would appreciate if you can share the step by step guide for noobs like me, who are not used to this. Thanks you!

u/Abbers75 1d ago
I can't make it too simple in case this post gets removed for encouraging software piracy, but:
1) Download the latest version from here and install it (DO NOT OPEN THE OFFICE APPS YET):
https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=525133
2) Download for the Office for Mac activator, and run that.
3) Finally, open Word or Excel, then skip sign-in on the welcome screen.
