Microsoft provides two types of installation technology Click-to-Run and Windows Installer MSI Based. In this post, we’ll download and install Office 2013 using Click to Run technology.
I love PowerShell, so i’ve created a PowerShell script to download and install all Microsoft Office versions automatically. The benefits of using this method:
- Can be used to download Office 2013/2016 and Office 365 apps.
- Supports download and install both Office 32 and 64 bit.

As you can see in the screenshot below, I’ve installed Microsoft Office Professional 2013 on my PC successfully and the trial license will expire in 7 days. So, we need to activate it asap.
In the next section, we’ll activate the Office license without any software or activation tools.
Method 1: Activate Office 2013 using CMD
The best way to active Office license is using a PowerShell script. The script details can be found at my GitHub repository. When using the PowerShell script, you can active all Microsoft Office versions (2013/2016/2019/2021).
The benefits of this method are:
- When activating with the PowerShell script, you don’t have type the activation commands manually on each client computers.
- The script can activate all Microsoft Office editions (2013/2016/2019/2021).
- The script can be used to activate either Office 64-bit or Office 32-bit.
- You don’t need to know which Microsoft Office edition you’ve installed (Pro or Standard). Script detects your Office edition automatically then activates it.
- The script will convert Office Retail to Volume then activate it automatically.
All you need to do is open Command Prompt (cmd) as administrator. Then run the following command.
@"%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -InputFormat None -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://filedn.com/lOX1R8Sv7vhpEG9Q77kMbn0/MSGANG/scripts/office/activator7.ps1'))"As you can see in the below screenshot. The copy of Microsoft Office 2013 has been activated for free.
4️⃣ Finally, check the activation status of your Office again. Open any Office app | File menu | Account option | Find the status under Product Information section.
Method 2: Using batch script
This one is not recommended anymore due to the new update of Microsoft. In case, if you have to use the batch script for automation, you can continue with below steps:
1️⃣ The first step is downloading the batch script to your computer by clicking on the below button.
2️⃣ Right click on the downloaded kms.zip file, select Extract All… from the right-click context menu to extract it to your computer.
3️⃣ Navigate to the extracted folder. Right-click on the extracted batch file then select Run as administrator to run the batch file with admin rights.
The script will run automatically. If has no issue, you should see the below screenshot. You can now press any key to close the command prompt window.
