- Applies to: Office 2019 for Mac, Office 2016 for Mac The Volume Serializer (VL) is used to activate Office 2019 for Mac or Office 2016 for Mac as a volume licensed version. As reported by The Verge, the new version is essentially everything Office 365 has been offering over the past several years, packaged in a new version that’s available.
- Download and install Microsoft Office 2019 VL Serializer – official link, or from GitHub. Run the Microsoft Office 2019 VL Serializer and it will automatically activate MS Office 2019.

- Microsoft Office 2016 - Install on Mac Because Office 2016 is such a large program, it is recommended that you connect to the network using a wired Ethernet connection and disable your wireless connection before beginning this process in order to reduce the installation time.
I was under the impression that the VL Serializer was for VL, not retail licenses. If you purchase O365 or VL your problems will go away. If you purchase Retail, you have to deal with these activation headaches because Retail really isn't intended to scale. It's intended for single machines with single email accounts.
