When your computer gives you a tough time and you think of using a new PC, you may face the biggest confusion in how you would transfer the paid programs from your current PC to the new one. And, Microsoft Office is not an exception especially when you need to use it regularly on another device. Fortunately, office.com/myaccount allows you to move your Office products from one computer to another quite easily.
Let us uncover the transfer process now
First thing first, you should uninstall Office setup from the exiting device
Please ensure that you delete the related files of Office as well
Then, you should go ahead and power on your new computer
Further, connect it with a high-speed internet connection
Go to office.com/setup and install Office on this device
Then, you should open the installed file and “Run/Save” it on your PC
Afterward, open the file by double-tapping on it

Accept the End User License Agreement
Visit https://www.office.com on the new computer. You can use any web browser, such as Edge, Safari, Firefox, or Chrome, to view the Office website.
Use this method if you do not have a Microsoft 365 subscription and want to transfer already-activated copy of Office Home & Business, Office Home & Student, or Office Professional to a new Windows PC.
Since your license allows you to have Office installed on one computer at a time, you'll first install Office on the new computer, activate by phone, and then remove the applications from your old computer.
