And bonus: Games from your Steam library will run with CrossOver. Best of luck on finding a replacement suitable for your needs. Run utility software like Quicken and Microsoft Office, or DirectX games, like Wizard101. There really isn’t anywhere further to go with this. I’ve mentioned the only two options you have at this point. It sucks, I get it, but it’s something that businesses do every day. A business made a decision to end support for activating old software. Not because I think I’m right and you’re wrong, or because I’m elitist or anything. I consider this thread done, and won’t reply to any further messages on it. So it stands to reason that I don’t have any. No, I don’t recall any “Plays For Sure” music. It would be no different if Microsoft went out of business a few years ago. Unless otherwise stated in their license agreement with you when you purchased Office 2011, Microsoft had no obligation to provide you the ability to activate this software forever.Īt the end of the day, this is how just about every software company operates.
So you must buy new software, or use alternatives.īusinesses stop supporting software at a certain point. Now you can’t use it, because it can’t be activated. You bought it, presumably about 7 years ago. Microsoft made a decision to shut down their activation process for Office 2011. But I think you need to come to terms with your expectations not matching reality.
