It’s for my mother, who so far cannot stand LibreOffice.
While I personally love LibreOffice, I get why your mom might not. It’s super easy:
- Download and install Office
- run
irm https://massgrave.dev/get | iex
in Powershell and follow the instructions - Profit!
What doesn’t she like about LibreOffice, out of curiosity? It’s easy to make the layout like Office (View > User Interface > Tabbed) if that’s her problem - I felt the exact same way, but the second I found out I could do that, I never went back.
What’s this do? Been linux only for like 12 years and don’t keep up with office
Massgrave is a tool that can create legit (oem) keys for windows and office out of thin air*
- it’s not literally creating them from nothing, it’s using a system Ms themselves run to get working keys. Evidently they don’t have a huge problem with it.
Turns out the powershell step is enough to get 97% of users to shell out cash.
And also, the biggest source of revenue is institutions who either will pay for the enterprise license, or can be sued for a good payday if they try to pirate.
Yeah please teach me how you found it so I can be as resourceful as you. I’m not really interested in your self deprecation. Thank you.

Is there anything like this for MacOS 15?
Download office from massgrave.dev and activate with the power shell activator. Permanent activation as easy as it gets.
You could tell your mom the real price of MS office. She might suddenly stand LibreOffice just fine.
i’m always amused by the reaction of my friends when i tell them that office costs $10 per month. They are all always “whaaaaat?? This POS is this expensive??”
Screw word. I’m studying Software Development, but I have to write all these management reports for various classes. I’m just writing them in LaTeX now, so it feels like I’m coding while I’m writing a paper. Implement some new fancy features every time that I than have to debug like I do with code.
Hosting pirate scripts for a Microsoft product on another Microsoft owned website is… interesting.
Meanwhile I quietly switched Ms office with libreoffice on my dads PC and he didn’t even notice.
