Notes
In order for Microsoft Project to activate with the campus licensing server, your computer needs to be connected the Stanford network locally or through the Stanford VPN during installation. To check whether you can connect to the Stanford licensing server, open a web browser and go su-kms.stanford.edu. If you see a welcome screen, your Project installation will activate. If Project does not activate on its own, try running the Office Activation Tool.
In order for your copy of Project to remain activate it must connect to the Stanford network at least once every 180 days. If you find your copy of Project has become deactivated, make sure you are connected to the Stanford network and run the Office Activation Tool.
