cinci zoo sniper posted:we did get nice box of individual, physical business licences, since, as i said, we are really allergic to buying microsoft things like normal people would normal people don't buy microsoft products... IT does. but yeah, since they moved a lot of the previously volume licensing exclusive stuff to office 365/online subs it's been a hell of a lot easier

cinci zoo sniper posted:well i imagine it these days is like "ok lets put in corporate cc into azure webstore or whatever and sub ourselves to howver many o365 seats we need" it's this but somehow easier. although that does require they offer the subscriptions in latvia, and i have no idea if they do i mean, it's still all broken as poo poo, and they haven't figured out how to consolidate the service options for a lot of the cloud hosted stuff, but it's less like hitting your balls with a hammer than it was a few years ago. bonus: much like windows 10, some settings are in two places. even better, they can have different values (e.g. spam filtering in the exchange control panel v.s. "security and compliance" controls). which one takes precedent? who loving knows!

well, hit reactivate and re-enter your credentials. this being microsoft, if that doesn't work you need to run a command line thing to de-auth everything and then enter your credentials. good luck
