Way to get Office/Windows XP key with AUTOIT

[MadBoy 3]

Is there a way to get Office / Windows key with autoit code from already installed software? I know there are quite few programs to use as standalone just i was wondering about autoit if it can be done. Tnx

Edit:

$Bin = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Registration\{90280409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0050048383C9}","DigitalProductID")

InputBox("Product Key", "Your OfficeXP product key is:", DecodeProductKey($bin), "", -1, 100, -1, -1)

$Bin = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Registration\{90110409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9}","DigitalProductID")

InputBox("Product Key", "Your Office2003 product key is:", DecodeProductKey($bin), "", -1, 100, -1, -1)

...you get the picture...

Ye tnx muchos. I guess as soon as my time will let me my apps are gonna get a lot of new funcitonalities I'll share with it as soon as i am done, i doubt it will be soon but still maybe someone will have some use of it (except of course IT Department here at my company ;p)

hrms, seems like the codes from office give me errors.. well not errors just the key it displays is always BBBBB-BBBBBB.....

I am sure the problem is in that {90280409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0050048383C9} value since it's diffrent on my computer.. is there a way to make it ignore the name of that key and just search for the line ?

I would not know how.

What office product do you have?

[MadBoy 3]

Office 2003, on my system it's {90110415-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9}, i can install also Visio / Project and other microsoft stuff but i am sure that key varies from computer to computer.

A search at microsoft for 90110409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9 gives several returns dealing with Office 2003. Including this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885876 which states:

For example, {90110409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9} is the GUID for US English Microsoft Office 2003 Professional Enterprise Edition.

So perhaps you have a different "edition".

got to run...

[MadBoy 3]

Well, yeah. I have Office 2003 Profesional but POLISH version. Would be nice thou for the code to work on any language version

It's not the cleanest script, but it works.

ERROR: 'ExitLoop' not allowed outside loop.

If @error <> 0 Then ExitLoop

(line 10). WHen i change it to just Exit it works fine. I think for other purposes script could just check if Program Files\...\Office10 (etc) exists so there would be no end-user requirement to type it in

You may want to have a look at this. Will need AutoIt Beta for the Com used.

Sure, Windows code works but as before Office 2003 code doesn't. BigDaddys code on the other hand works without problems.

Yeah I'm not sure why that even got put in there? You can remove that whole line and it will function properly. As for checking the directories that would work unless someone installs office in a different location. It could be made a lot more user friendly, but I just threw it together with the time I had.

Yeah i will think about something.

Just i am wondering now if Uninstalling for example Office XP and installing Office 2003 removes "Office10" directory (xp) and/or eventually registry key related to it.

I am planning to make Microsoft Office Updater for Administrative instalation (Windows/office update doesn't work on such version, nor does WUS i think) of Microsoft Office. I've been asking around some time ago for an app, or way to force users to update their office XP or 2003 that has been installed from \\server (my company has couple of locations so there will be few servers) but had no luck (since i need the less administrative work from user). So i thought about making an app that will

1. Check for local connection and ping all the servers. The one that will have response 1ms will be the one that is LAN (rest on WAN is like 5-8ms+). Choice is made here.

2. Check if computer is in domain and user is logged in with domain account .. if yes continue

3. Check for Office version (most users have Office XP but around 50+ has Office2003. (so that's why i need to know how to make sure what office version is on computer).

4. Execution of msiexec with command like: (not yet tested if it updates correctly) msiexec \\server\Install\Microsoft_Office2003 PRO11.MSI /fo /qb!

I'm sure some of administrators with 'similar' configuration could benefit that and i'll make sure to post it if/when i am done (have a lot of work thou at work and with uni so prolly will take some time especially that i have few more projects in AutoIT open ;p)

A few questions...

1) Do the servers at different locations have different ip schemes? Like for instance I work at a bank, each branch has a different ip scheme. Example: Location 1 = 10.1.1.1, Location 2 = 10.1.2.1, Location 3 = 10.1.3.1 and so on.

2) If I understand you correctly you want to uninstall office xp and install office 2003?

3) Did you know that you can create Administrative Installation Points? This allows you to create an automated install. From an office cd you run setup.exe /a this runs a setup wizard that configures all the settings for the automated installs. Check this page for more information.

1) Servers are named like WAW1, KRA1, KAT1, LOD1. Only waw1 so far has Instalation point done by me. Rest will be done when i finish Office Updater (which i am posting at the end of msg).

2) Nopes. I have prepared Unattended Office XP and Office 2003 thru administrative instalation (with all patches and keys). What i want to achieve is that after once installed on some computer with My program (in autoit) the computer doesnt come back to us for longer time. So the user has the version of office updated to that date. Now i couldn't find a simple way to UPDATE Office products without need to going to user and 'clicking' setup.exe (and then if Administrative point had newer version i was asked If i want to update to newest version). But as you can imagine this isn't working good for company with 2000 ppl where half would probably fuckup something. As you probably know WWW - Office Update says to go f... yourself if you have administrative version installed so users trying to do that were sent back to home. Another problem was that some of ppl has Office XP, Some Office 2003 and some Project/Visio 2003. I also had hard time finding how to update the rls just from command line till today ;p So now i made an application that can be uploaded to computer with office (with link next to Microsoft word so the user will see it easly) and so he can start it himself if he wants to.

I'm posting the code. It works so far.. i commented out the 'RunWait()' commands so it wouldn't start anything if you run it But it will give you idea how/what Of course this is 0.2 version so it only has simple checks which i need to 'change' but since i had to do it fast... here it goes. And since i often use this forum and i respect other ppl posting their code i don't feel problem with sharing what i made so far.. If it will reach version 1.0 maybe more ppl will want to use it

Things to do:

1. Additional registry check (with product ID comparasion) so the app would only work on "COMPANY OFFICE".

2. Option to start program "OfficeUpdater.exe Install" which would search for 'office instalation' check in registry if it's right office and would add itself to 'start menu' so the user could use it (a lot of users have already Office version outdated so they must get the program somehow). Will be pushed by logon script or so.

3. Will come up wiht more ideas later on ;p

[MadBoy 3]

I asked if uninstalation of OfficeXp or Office2003 removes product id key from registry and other keys there because the app will do checks in registry. I wouldn't like to have false positive answers that application is installed (based on key in registry) when actually it's long gone

[MadBoy 3]

Forgot to add.. Disadvantage of that administrative point and forcing the updates is that the command acctually REINSTALL's whole apps so if you get 50 users to do it at once it might be a killer for a server
