Frage:

Ich betreibe noch ein altes #Word (#Office 2010 Pro), das ich vor vielen Jahren gekauft hatte. Damit bearbeite ich noch alte Dateien. Alles problemlos, bis vor einer Woche.

Da verlangte Word "Aktivierung wegen Hardwareänderung". Allerdings habe ich an der Hardware nichts geändert. Ein Neustart von WIndows 7 Pro (alter, isolierter Rechner) zeigt dann wieder "Aktiviert". Das Spiel hat sich nun seit einer Woche wiederholt.

Was kann da passiert sein?
