They continue to tell me via e-mail to “try again”. I deleted the newly downloaded software and tried again. When I used the product code provided after paying, and followed their “Redeem Product” link, I ended up with Office 365, with a request for a subscription payment. I have never found anyone legit at a lower price than .īuyer beware! I purchased a copy of Office 2021 Professional from Stack Social (via Yahoo) for $49.95. My logic is I can buy several copies at $37 over a 3 or 4 year period and come out far ahead of buying retail. In contrast, perpetual licenses get fewer feature updates but do get all security/bug patches. Microsoft has decided that for Office 365, features are added and updated all the time. The impact of this varies widely depending on your personal usage of computers. Use it as long as your computer lasts and/or your copy of Windows runs without needing nuked, whichever is shorter (FOR OFFICE). Once installed, the license never expires. If they were NOT legit, Microsoft would shut down all these sites. Repeatedly, because it is tied to the hardware. I have repeatedly reinstalled Win10Pro on same hardware and it ALWAYS activates.

If you ever have to reinstall Windows, even on identical hardware, you can NOT install and activate the key the second time.įOR WINDOWS: Microsoft for WIn10 tied all licenses to the hardware. I have NEVER had a key be denied, with one HUGE exception.įOR OFFICE: You can install it once on one computer. I have bought both Win10Pro licenses as well as Office Pro Plus licenses. I did not check out.Īt least for, these are keys that came with computers that were never activated.
