Once Visio is associated with your Microsoft account, you no longer need the product key. It will always be linked to your account and you can re-download the app or manage your license from account.microsoft.com.

Locate the version of Visio you want to install and select Install. If you have multiple Microsoft 365products you may have to scroll through the list of products associated with this Microsoftaccount.
Microsoft HUP: You bought Visio for personal use through your company HUP benefit and have a product key, see Install Office through HUP (These steps apply to all stand-alone Microsoft 365 products purchased through HUP.)
If you don't see an option to install Visio or if you selected Install Office from the office.com home page and Office begins to download immediately, cancel that installation and do the following.
This page contains free product keys for different versions of Microsoft Visio. At the time of publication, all keys are valid and allow you to activate your Microsoft Visio product online or by phone. If the keys are not valid, then you can wait for the update, or buy yourself a personal Microsoft Visio product code at a very cheap price.
The perpetual license never expires. It is a perpetual license to use the Visio product. When you start Visio for the first time after installation, the Microsoft Activation Wizard automatically runs. You are presented with two activation options, or you can choose to active at a later time:
If you select the Activate by using the Internet option, the Activation Wizard automatically contacts the Microsoft licensing servers through your Internet connection. If you are using a valid product key that has not been used previously, your product is activated immediately. If you select the Activate by using the telephone option, call the telephone number that is provided in the Activation Wizard, and type the confirmation number that is provided by the customer service agent. In either case, after you activate your product, you will have a license to use Visio that never expires. You can run Visio up to 10 times without activating it. If you do not activate the product, it runs in a reduced-functionality mode. In reduced-functionality mode, you cannot save modifications to documents or create a new document, and additional functionality may be reduced. No existing Visio files or drawings will be harmed, and you can easily change Visio out of reduced-functionality mode by following the instructions that are outlined in the screens presented. For more information, see the "Quit Reduced-Functionality Mode" section of this article.
If you do not have Internet connectivity, or you choose not to activate Visio by using the Internet, you can use the telephone to activate Visio. To activate your product this way, start Visio, and then follow these steps:
If you do not want to activate your copy of Visio, you can click Activate Later on any page of the Activation Wizard. The wizard warns you that you have a specified number of times to run the product before you are required to activate it. Click Exit to close the wizard. NOTE: If you decide to activate your license at a later time, the activation counter decrements each time that you start the Visio program. If the counter reaches zero, the Visio program begins running in reduced-functionality mode.
If your purchase of Office or Microsoft 365 came with a product key, you enter your product key on one of the websites listed below for your product. After you enter your key, you can download and install Office, or you can renew your Microsoft 365 subscription.
If you see the error This product key has already been used when you enter your product key on www.office.com/setup or Microsoft365.com/setup, this means your product key has already been redeemed and is no longer needed.
I've scripted an install for Visio Pro 2016 to install as a standalone using Click-to-Run and deploy from SCCM on systems with Office 365. After installing Visio Pro 2016 standalone, when you open any Office 365 application you get an Enter Your Product Key prompt. You can just hit back and the product will be activated. You will not get the prompt again, even with other Office applications. Any idea what causes this after the Visio install? It also occurs for a Project Pro 2016 standalone install too.
Currently, I suggest you search CMD, right-click the Command Prompt and run as administrator. Then copy and paste the command in it, click Enter at last: cscript.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /dstatus Then please share the results of command with me, I would check whether there is other Visio product informaton effects your Visio activation.
@Chee, Chien Sean Thanks for your quick reply. Please uninstall a product key from your Command Prompt via following command. cscript.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /unpkey:VMFTK Then reboot your machine, try to activate your Visio again.
If the step above does not work, please continue to use cscript.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /dstatus to check the activation information for your Visio. If its license status is still Notification, please change the product key for this Visio via following commands. cscript.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /unpkey:V8TWH cscript.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /inpkey:AAAAABBBBBCCCCCDDDDDEEEEE (Please note, the "AAAAABBBBBCCCCCDDDDDEEEEE" means your key) cscript.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /act"
A Product Key enables use of a software product you have licensed under a specific Volume Licensing program. The Product Keys listed in the VLSC should be used with only Volume License products and are intended for use by your organization only.
If your agreement authorizes you access to a product that requires a key, those keys will be displayed in the "Downloads and Keys" section. However, some products do not require a product key. This will be stated in special instructions listed in the product description in the "Downloads and Keys" catalog.
Volume activation is a configurable solution that helps automate and manage the product activation process on computers running Windows operating systems that have been licensed under a volume licensing program. Volume activation is also used with other software from Microsoft (most notably the Office suites) that are sold under volume licensing agreements and that support volume activation
The Key Management Service (KMS) is an activation service that allows organizations to activate systems within their own network, eliminating the need for individual computers to connect to Microsoft for product activation. It does not require a dedicated system and can be easily co-hosted on a system that provides other services.
The number of activations available for a product may not always match the number of licenses purchased. Usually you will receive a higher number of activations in case you need to reinstall and activate some of your products. Please check the Licensing Summary section of your agreement to see your number of licenses.
The Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) enables network administrators and other IT professionals to automate and centrally manage the volume and retail-activation process for Windows, Microsoft Office, and select other Microsoft products. VAMT can manage volume activation using Multiple Activation Keys (MAKs) or the Windows Key Management Service (KMS). VAMT is a standard Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that requires the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) 3.0.
License compliance and Asset Management are independent of key activation. Customers do not have to use the keys provided under a specific Licensing ID (agreement, enrollment, affiliate, or license) for use only with the licenses specified under that Licensing ID. If a parent organization (which owns a chlld organization) has an individual agreement, it can use the same key to deploy a product across both parent and child organizations. This flexibility allows customers to centrally manage their deployment image by either using keys specific to agreements / licenses, or one set of keys for all.
Yes. Re-imaging rights are granted to all Microsoft Volume Licensing customers. Under these rights, customers may re-image Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or Full Packaged Product (FPP) licensed copies using media provided under their agreement as long as copies made from the Volume Licensing media are identical to the originally licensed product. As a Volume Licensing customer, the Volume License Keys you need can be found on the Product Key page. You can also request your keys through a Microsoft Activation Center.
The majority of Microsoft software products have a 30-days trial in order to let the user try them for free. This allow users to see the value of the product and if they have been happy with it, they might consider paying for a license. However, spending hundreds of dollars is a big problem for people having very low incomes, particularly in some of the poorest regions. If you are students or teachers and your school is part of the program, you will have a chance to use most Microsoft products at no cost. And if you are not a beneficiary of this program, using KMS method is a perfect solution you can consider.
Step 1.3: Activate your Project/Visio using KMS client keyMake sure your PC is connected to the internet, then run the following command. Do not forget to replace THE_CLIENT_KEY with the KMS client key of your product.
