How Can I Verify That The Microsoft Office Key Is Genuine? - www.office.com/setup

 A product key is required for any software installation on your laptop or PC. This is your unique code. This code ensures that you only use the software. Only one product key can be used for that software. www.office.com/setup

The internet allowed intelligent people to find an alternative and began using the software legally without having to purchase it. The software generators were not happy about this.

Companies began to promote subscription modules instead of purchasing modules in order to avoid misuse and address the situation. Software companies began advertising monthly, quarterly, and annual subscriptions, rather than giving complete ownership.

This was done to prevent software counterfeiting. Adobe and Microsoft do not sell licenses for their apps or software. They also promote subscription-based models. Although you can still purchase a licensed version with a product code, it is not recommended.

The new subscription model caused confusion among users. They believed they couldn't buy product keys from Microsoft anymore or that the product keys they already have were fake. They were misled and turned to third-party sellers for product keys. This was a major problem because not all third-party sellers sold genuine keys.

In This blog post. Today, I will show you how to verify that the Microsoft Office key is authentic.

Do You Need Microsoft Office Keys?

When you install Office on your first PC or laptop, the Microsoft product key will be required. It may also be required if you want to update or reinstall Office. You have two options to get your Microsoft Office.

  • You bought it online or in a shop
  • It was purchased online by Microsoft.

Both cases will result in a product key. These steps are required if you purchased Office online.

  • Open the official Microsoft site - www.office.com/myaccount
  • The Sign-in option is located in the upper right corner. Enter your login ID and password that you used to purchase the product.
  • Sign in and click on your name at the top right corner. Next, select Order History.
  • Click on the purchase you wish to install and locate it. This will not install office but show you the product key.
  • Click on Install Office again after the product key window has opened.
  • Next, you will see a welcome message saying "Hi." Let's get our office! Follow the prompts to enter your product key and then install office.

The Microsoft Office key is authentic because it was generated online by the Microsoft Store.

You can install Office if you purchased Office at a local shop.

  • Start the Office app you purchased. The sign-in window will open and you will be redirected.
  • Select "I don’t want to sign in or create an account" from the sign-in window.
  • Enter your product key in the next window and the office product installation process begins.

Here's the important part.

How do I verify that the Product Key is genuine?

These steps will allow you to verify that the Microsoft Office key is authentic.

  • This page is now open
  • Click next to enter your credentials for Microsoft Account.
  • Next, you'll be redirected directly to the 'Enter Your Product Key’ window.
  • Enter the Product Key that you have. If your product key has validity, you will be redirected directly to the download setup file window. You will get an error message like this if your product key is invalid.

You will be redirected here if your key is valid for Office 2007 or Office 2010. You can then enter your product key to download the correct version.

Microsoft will not directly inform you that your product key isn't genuine. If you are cheated or given an invalid product key, Microsoft will still display an error message. If you get this error message, it is likely that you have been cheated and given an invalid key.

There are some chances that Office can be returned to you if you purchased it from a trusted retailer. If you bought the product online, it is possible to request a change or a refund.

It is always a good idea to purchase software and apps from the official Microsoft store website. There are very few chances of you getting a fake key. If you're unable to purchase the key from the main site for any reason, it is worth looking elsewhere.

You can also opt for the Subscription model to renew your license according to your requirements. You are much more secure than the other options. You can renew or cancel your subscription at any time, on a monthly basis or annually as you need.

Beware of scam sellers. You should only trust the genuine site to buy Microsoft software and apps. office.com/setup365
