Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17101 Fast + 17604 Skip Ahead Feb. 14 Insider

Fellow geeks on any 17xxx build using subscription based Click-to-Run installed Office 2016 (O365 Personal / Home / Business / Enterprise), I would be very pleased if you would tell about what you see when running the following command in elevated Command Prompt:

cscript "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /dstatus

In case you are running 64 bit Office, the command is:

cscript "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16\ospp.vbs" /dstatus

Screenshot shows what you should see, one licensed Office installation:

I've lately had a lot of issues with Office, it remains activated only five days then deactivating itself and giving continuous account errors when connecting to services like OneDrive, above command showing two SKUs / installations, one as in above "Everything OK!" screenshot (yellow highlight) and then another unlicensed "Grace Edition" with 5 day grace period (blue highlight):

I am trying to get to the bottom of this weird issue, would appreciate any feedback from you guys. I suspect underlying issue has something to do with Windows Insider Preview builds, and probably also with the way I prepare my custom W10 deployment images.

Thanks in advance,

Kari

However I will wait for the next build to see if that one runs on my hardware.

It would be interesting to see how well the hyper-v sharing feature works. One thing I am not sure about is the activation ;-).

Thanks. In your case everything seems to be OK, just one SKU and license shown on both machines.

The sharing experience is great when it works, but more often it does not work.

VM sharing on VMWare is far superior in this case, so are many other features too, has always been and will probably always be.
