What is the Microsoft Office Registration Wizard (ORW) and where can I get more information?

ORW refers to the Microsoft Office Registration Wizard. Once you have installed the software, it will ask you to register your license with Microsoft. This registration can be done via Internet, mail, fax, or telephone. Once you register with Microsoft you will receive a key or passcode that will record this registration information on your computer. If you register over the Internet, this passcode will be entered automatically. If you decline registration at the time of installation, you will be asked to register each time you run the product. We strongly recommend that you enter the software key or serial number during installation. This prompt will display for the first 50 uses, after that, further access to the programs will be denied until you enter your registration passcode.

Another important restriction of the Microsoft ORW CDs is that they will only allow for two distinct installations. This feature will allow you to reinstall due to a hardware failure, or to install the software on your laptop, but it will prevent you from installing it on more than two computers.

Microsoft product activation and registration process can be found at http://tinyurl.com/activate-office. This info applies to all Microsoft products offered to students/faculty/staff personal sales via the WISC site.
