A few days ago, Microsoft fixed a Microsoft Account (MSA)-related bug wherein users with legitimate Office 2024 licenses would apparently be unable to install the software. You can find the details about the issue in this article here.

Besides that, the company also said that it was investigating another Microsoft 365-related bug wherein Office apps like Word, among others, would show a deactivation message that said: "Your Microsoft 365 license will be deactivated soon.... most features of Word will be disabled. Ask your Admin to reactivate your license".

At the time, Microsoft had provided a workaround and urged affected users to help them. It looks like the investigation has paid off as the tech giant has now closed the issue and as such the bug has been labelled as fixed. A patch that is supposed to fix the deactivation problem has been deployed on the server side.

However, it still encourages affected users to get in touch with the engineering team that is working on such bugs. It writes:

STATUS: FIXED

The engineering team has deployed a patch on the service side to resolve unexpected product deactivations.
