Posted March 4, 201014 yr A new version of Genuine Advantage was recently installed. Now whenever I open an Office app, I am told I need to activate it. But I click on Help->Activate and I learn my product is already activated. I'm running Windows XP Professional v 5.1.2600 SP 3 Build 2600. My version of Word, for example, is Microsoft Word 2002 (10.6856.6858) SP3. When I pull down Help->About, I see that each product is licensed to me. I believe I bought this copy of Office with my Dell desktop -- quite a long time ago. I've never had issues with licensing or activation before.
