Note: We will be installing a cracked version of Microsoft Office. Use at your own risk.
Install qBittorrent
- Go to: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qbittorrent/files/qbittorrent-win32/
- Click Download latest version button.
- Quickly click Problems downloading and select Auto-select under choose a different mirror.
- All the defaults are good, so just click Next and install. (You may choose other options if you know what you are doing.)
Installing Office
-
Go to: https://www.teamos.xyz/
-
Make your own account using Sign Up.
-
Click Torrents.
-
Search for Microsoft Office.
-
Click the green up arrow in the middle right to sort by seeders. (This just means you get better download speeds.)
-
At the time of writing, my top result was:
Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2024 VL 2408 Build 17928.20082 (x86 x64) Final TeamOS by Mr Spacely His builds are really good and reliable; I’ve been using them for a long time without issues.
There will also be a label that says “Freeleech” which means you can download it without disrupting your torrent upload/download ratio. This is a good thing for reasons which will not be explained as they are out of scope of this guide. Prefer torrents with this label if you can find them.
-
With that top result, click the small green u icon to the right of the torrent name. This will download a
.torrentfile. -
In your Downloads folder, double-click the
.torrentfile. It should open in qBittorrent. -
Click Next to any dialog box that might appear.
-
Wait until the download finishes.
Extracting the Files
-
The download should be a
.7zfile.- (If not, you’ll need to figure out installation for your specific application.)
-
Before extracting:
- Press Windows key → search Virus & Threat Protection.
- Under Virus & Threat Protection settings, click Manage settings.
- Scroll down → under Exclusions, click Add or remove exclusions.
- Add an exclusion for the folder where you downloaded the
.7zfile. - (Reason: Antivirus removes some files it thinks are viruses. To the best of my knowledge, these are safe and tested. Still, cracked software = your own risk.)
-
Make a new empty folder.
-
Move the
.7zfile into this folder. -
Download 7-Zip from: https://www.7-zip.org/
- Install it (Windows version, run
.exe).
- Install it (Windows version, run
-
Right-click the MS Office file →
7-Zip > Extract Here.

-
Click Yes.
-
If Defender blocks this:
- Press Windows key → search Virus & Threat Protection.
- Under Virus & Threat Protection settings, disable real-time protection temporarily.
-
Run the file again.

Well done, you have activated Office (and optionally Windows).
