Check before installing
- It installs, but you must sign in to activate a licence before you can edit. Without one it is read-only.
- What installs is the enterprise build (Microsoft 365 Apps). With a home licence key, downloading from your Microsoft account page is more reliable.
What it is
Installs Microsoft’s genuine Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Most corporate documents and coursework are in these formats, and compatibility is the main reason people pay for it. Installing is free; actually using it requires a Microsoft 365 subscription or a licence key.
When to pick this
If you handle complex Excel formatting or macros for work or study. For reading and light edits, ONLYOFFICE or LibreOffice cost nothing.
Details
Installing and licensing are separate
It installs, but editing unlocks only after you sign in and a licence is found. Otherwise it is read-only.
Which build installs
The enterprise build (Microsoft 365 Apps). With a home licence key, downloading from your Microsoft account page is the safer route.
The free route
The web version at office.com is free with an account. It does less, but opening a document and making small edits works.
