    Was forced to buy this version because my old version doesn’t work on Windows 10. This is only a one time use, so if something goes wrong with my laptop, I will have to pay another $150. Bring back the CD Rom version, so people can install using an external cd/dvd drive.

      Hi there,

      We just wanted to chime in and let you know that if you connect your Office Home & Student 2019 purchase to your Microsoft Account you can reinstall it if you need to following the steps outlined here: https://aka.ms/AA4rq32.

      Hope that helps,

    My last PC came with Office on it at no extra cost. I was disappointed to find out that Office does not come with the new PC I purchased and had to be purchased separately. Also, I was led to believe my purchase would be a one-time cost by the sales person but now I find out that my payment was for only one year! Office should be standard with the operating system. You really can't do much without it.

    This is good for my purposes, but setting up a Microsoft account was a nightmare. It kept telling me I needed parental permission!

      Hey Jeff,

      Maybe Office was trying to pay you a compliment and make you feel blissfully young? But in all seriousness, we hear you and we want you to know that we'll do our due diligence to look into our Microsoft account creation process. In the meantime, you can send us direct feedback through any Office suite app under the File tab. If you aren't familiar with that process, here's a link with instructions: https://support.office.com/en-US/article/How-do-I-give-feedback-on-Microsoft-Office-2b102d44-b43f-4dd2-9ff4-23cf144cfb11

      Feel free to contact us if you have any others questions!

      Sincerely,

    Ordered Office Home & Student 2019 (1 device) digital from Best Buy. Was able to download the basic info but most of the product doesn't work. Can't get in touch with anyone online. (joke) What a terrible product. Will charge this back since there is absolutely no support.
