How to Remove Microsoft Office “Not Genuine” Notifications [Tips]

MyDigitalLife  has a great post containing the five different methods for disabling the: “This copy of Microsoft Office is not genuine” notification message that can be received after installing the Office Genuine Advantage update.  This message can come up when your license is legal, but may have been activated one too many times.  While you get that all sorted out you may want to remove the annoying messages.

This is the method I have used:

1. Run Registry Editor (RegEdit.exe).
2. Press Ctrl-F to open search box, and search for OGAAddin.connect registry key.
3. In the right pane, right click on Load Behavior and select Modify.
4. Change the value data from 3 to 0.
5. Repeat for each and every OGAAddin.connect found.
