Hello,

I have MS Office SB 2007 with Office Professional 2007 Trail With MLK OEM
Software License.

I want to format that PC because I have some OS issue.

How can I De-Active that license?
can I use that License key after format that PC?

Thanks & Regards,
Hitesh Prajapati

You can only use the MLK software on the original computer according to the
license. If you don't have the backup media you won't be able to reinstall
onto the same computer. You should have either received the media from the
place of computer purchase or followed instructions to obtain it within the
required period of time directly from Microsoft. The web site at the end of
this post is where you can obtain the backup media but when it is filled in
ensure to use a MLK license purchase date that is within 90 calendar days of
each other, otherwise the purchase will fail.

If you have a trial software conversion license instead of MLK then you do
not want this package but the trial download. Look at the license sticker
that you have and it should have MLK in the lower right.

Web site to order or download the MLK software:

Reading your License terms for the product key you own should help you
determine what course of action you have available to you.

In your 2007 version - click on Office Button - Options - Resources - About
- View the Microsoft Software License Terms

Normally the License terms includes sections for Retail License Terms, OEM
License Terms and Media-Less License Terms (In Office 2010 - Product Key
Card - PKC will replace Media-Less or MLK)

Then, under the Installation and Use Rights, it specifically states how you
can assign your license.

For 2007 products, this is also a good resource page for License Terms in
identifying the kind of product you have:

If your designation is FPP, then the Retail License Terms below apply to
you. If your designation is OEM, then the OEM License Terms below apply to
you. If your designation is MLK, then the Media-less License Kit Terms
below apply to you.

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/HA102240441033.aspx

Also, another helpful tip (IF it applies in your specific license terms) -
READ your license terms to be sure you HAVE specific reassign useage

Here is a REASSIGN * Example *

REASSIGN TO ANOTHER DEVICE. You may reassign the license to a different
device any number of times, but not more than one time every 90 days. If
you reassign, that other device becomes the "licensed device." If you
retire the licensed device due to hardware failure, you may reassign the
license sooner.

Other important issues are detailed in your License Terms as well - for
example - UPGRADE OR CONVERSION
