Running latest version of Office for Mac 2016 as of this writing, on MacOS Sierra. I've installed a Volume Licensed version of Office, but am lacking features of o365 and would like to remove the VL to log into o365. I've uninstalled all Office, Skype for Business, and even OneDrive, but every time I reinstall, even from personal o365 download, it only sees the VL and never asks to log in/activate (you can see in the Outlook/Word/Excel > About page that it's VL). Any ideas how to remove the VL? I don't have the com.microsoft.licensingV2.plist file anywhere so I'm. It sure where it's held.
[Edit] I've followed both of the below document, but the location of any com.microsoft.office.licensingV2.xxx does not exist. I've also used AppCleaner to remove all the Microsoft products.
