Updated Office 2010 ProPlus Key

[howardagoldberg]

As per the message on the TechNet home page, I updated the license key for my
installation of Office 2010 ProPlus. Everything seems to be fine, but in the
backstage|help -- there are two notices of product activation above the
"About Microsoft xxxx" info:

Product Activated
.......................................
Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010
This product contains Microsoft Access ....

This notice appears twice above the "About" section

Is this normal behavior? Is there a way to uninstall the first product key?

Thanks,

Howie

Yep. Open a command prompt navigate to where Office is installed (e.g.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office 14)

Type:

cscript ospp.vbs /unpkey:LAST_5_CHARACTERS_OF_THE_OLD_PRODUCT_KEY

So ... the behavior is normal, and removing the old key will have no adverse
affects. Correct? Thanks!
