Go into your Microsoft 365 subscription website and look for ability to download. Send it to your email that is linked to your current laptop. Then re-download it to the new laptop. After downloaded, restart your laptop. Should be completed.

Here is what Microsoft copilot says...
Here’s a **clear, step‑by‑step way to set up Microsoft 365 on your current laptop** (works for **Microsoft 365 Family**).
## ✅ What you need before starting
* The **Microsoft account** you used to buy Microsoft 365 (email + password)
* A stable internet connection
* Your laptop (Windows or Mac)
## Step 1: Sign in to your Microsoft account
1. Open a browser (Edge, Chrome, Safari).
2. Go to ****
3. Sign in using the email address tied to your Microsoft 365 Family subscription.
Once signed in, you should see **Microsoft 365 Family** listed under *Services & subscriptions*.
## Step 2: Download Microsoft 365
1. From the **Services & subscriptions** page, click **Install**.
2. Choose:
* **Install Microsoft 365 apps**
3. The installer will start downloading.
## Step 3: Install on your laptop
### On **Windows**
1. Open the downloaded file (usually `Microsoft365Setup.exe`).
2. Click **Yes** if prompted.
3. The apps will install automatically.
### On **Mac**
1. Open the downloaded `.pkg` file.
2. Follow the on‑screen installation steps.
3. Enter your Mac password if asked.
⏳ Installation runs in the background—no need to select individual apps.
## Step 4: Activate Microsoft 365
1. Open any app (Word, Excel, or PowerPoint).
2. When prompted, **sign in with the same Microsoft account**.
3. Activation happens automatically.
✅ You’re now fully set up.
## Step 5: (Optional) Set up OneDrive
1. Open **OneDrive** from the Start menu (Windows) or Applications (Mac).
2. Sign in with your Microsoft account.
3. Choose or confirm the sync folder.
This lets you:
* Back up files automatically
* Access documents across devices
* Share files with family members
***
## Step 6: Add family members (if needed)
Since you’re on **Microsoft 365 Family**:
1. Go to **Microsoft account → Family**
2. Invite family members using their email.
3. Each person installs and signs in on their own device.
## Common issues & quick fixes
* **Can’t see subscription?** → Make sure you’re signed in with the correct email.
* **Already installed on another device?** → That’s fine. Family plan supports multiple users/devices.
* **Old Office version installed?** → Microsoft 365 will replace it automatically.
## ✅ Final check
You’re done when:
* Word/Excel open without asking to buy or activate
* Your name/email shows under **Account** in any Office app
