Office 2010 Activation error 0x80070190

An unspecified error has occurred. Your request cannot be processed at this time. Please try again later. (0x80070190)

I’ve had the above error message a bunch of times while trying to activate Office 2010, I’ve been able to work around the problem by using the telephone activation option provided by Microsoft but it’s a pain and takes about 5 minutes. I honestly can’t believe I’ve put up with problem for so long when the solution to my problem was fairly obvious and straight forward.

If you are dealing with this error try running the activation as Administrator (right click Word or Excel and select Run as Administrator)

Worked first time for me.
