How to Activate Microsoft Office 2024 on a New Laptop

Before this laptop, I was subscribing to Microsoft 365 with a payment about $8/ month. It's quite significant and since Microsoft Word is something I use daily, it's one of the thing I have to get a subscription for. But when I purchase the new laptop, they come with a lifetime Microsoft Word 2024. The only problem was I wasn't able to claim the freebies due to my exisiting subscriptions to Microsoft 365. It takes me 2 months to finally figure it out.

Here's the checklist that you can do.

1. Ensure that the account that you use to sign up first is readily availble and is signed in to your microsoft store.
2. If you have an existing subscriptions, just uninstall it and once you finish, go to microsoft store and click on claim.
3. You will notice that now you have to re-download the microsoft office. Let the operation finish.
4. Voila, you have successfully claim the Microsoft 2024.

The overall look is different from Microsoft 365 but if you're used to it, there shouldn't be significant changes. Most importantly, if it's a new laptop, you get the product for free and it's a lifetime license. (Not all laptop deals are like this, so make sure to find one that offer this best deal).

As long as you don't click on upgrade, that should be fine. Now, I do not have to pay $8 and can use it for other necessary subscriptions that helps me with my work instead.
