Q: QuestionSo does that mean when 12 months is up it automatically renews(5 answers)
A: AnswerWhen I activated my subscription, I was given the option to enable auto-renew so I don't think it is mandatory. As a bonus, I was offered one extra month free if I did enable auto-renew and saw that it is possible to disable the auto-renew option afterwards if you don't actually want it to auto-renew. This is an easy way to gain an extra month. Don't let the auto-renew portion of the title scare you away from this product.Answered by EvilChaderCheez

Q: QuestionHow much does it cost to purchase the software out right?(2 answers)
A: AnswerOne of the things you have to be aware of, is if you buy Office 2016 Home/Student, it DOES NOT come with Outlook. You need either Office 365 subscription or the Office 2016 Home and Business which is much more costly. If you don't care about Outlook, there are a number of free programs compatible with Microsoft products that are free. Open Office is one that is quite nice and files are kept on your PC and many like Google Docs if you like to keep things in the cloud.Answered by Smihlen
- A: AnswerYes you can use on 3 devices if I'm not mistaken and unless they raise the price it will be $69 per year
Answered by MikeP
- A: AnswerYes, you both should be able to use the same subscription, but it may only be in one login as opposed to two of them (in other words, you both need the same login no matter what device you use).
Answered by CommunityAnswer
- A: AnswerYou can open files that you create but can make no changes to it for approximately one month. Then it begins to be more and more difficult to view or even open the files.
