If you had an error “Product Activation Failed” or “The Activation Fails” with Microsoft Office 2010 program on your Dell machine ‘what would you do?’ The error message has a common appearance whether you are going with single activation or volume activation, and is an indication that your Office program is not activated. Usually, the office program comes with a grace period of 30-days, within which you are supposed to get the copy activated. Once, you failed to do so the program starts showing the red notification. Sometimes, the failure also surfaces as a result of counterfeiting software version, wrong activation key and incorrect activation module.

Though the Office works correctly, but the title bar will come with a red notification with a comment “(Product Activation Failed)”. Prolonged delay reduces the functionality of the suite; it goes vulnerable and insecure, and corrupted at all at the end. As a general troubleshooting, you can think of activating the product again through control panel / uninstall a program / right-click Office 2010 / choose “Change” (not uninstall). Enter your product key, it might solve the issue.
