Installing o365 on RDS - currently using o365 business licenses and need to install office 365 on rds which is running as a virtual machine. its been installed using odt > setup.exe /install /configure.xml

</AppSettings>
</Configuration>
When I launch an app word for example and attempt to sign in i get a message that says: Account Issue - the products we found in your account cannot be used to activate office in shared computer scenarios. Error Code: 0x80004005
I have verified that Shared Computer activation was enabled OK here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/DeployOffice/troubleshoot-issues-with-shared-computer-activation-for-office-365-proplus#Enabled
If i go to File > Account > About Word (or whatever the name of the app is). On the second line from the top, underneath the MSO version number, you should see Shared Computer Activation and also this key exisits: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR E\Microsof t\Office\C lickToRun\ Configurat ion. There should be a value for SharedComputerLicensing with a setting of 1.
According to this article https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/DeployOffice/overview-of-shared-computer-activation-for-office-365-proplus 365 business is available for activation on shared computers
Any ideas experts?
Thanks
