When you purchase, you get a key to redeem on your microsoft account. So when you get a new pc, you need to sign out of your microsoft account on your old device and sign in on the new device.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-...adc4716658

If you havent signed out on the old computer, you go to the account settings of the microsoft account and remove the old device from the list of logged in devices.

It makes me so mad that Microsoft has moved to this stupid model. Used to be that you can get Office Home for like $15. For personal use, I've completely moved to Google Docs. The only thing that I miss is Office for my resume. I'll probably go to the library to update it if I have to.

and I love all things Microsoft, but this is a stupid stupid move

If I have the standalone Microsoft Office 2013, is it worth upgrading and buying Office 2021?

Don't fall for those key websites . I've been scammed on those cheap deals . It works for awhile then it says to enter a license . Microsoft customer service will not help you resolve it .
I've bought hundreds of licensed products on key websites at least 20 office licenses without issue. I've also never thought to contact Microsoft customer service for resolution of a third party sale. How about contacting the website or seller? Don't let this experience discourage anyone from saving $90 with exactly zero risk.

No it isn't. I have 18 emails 5 calendars on my Thunderbird using IMAP and CALDAV "STANDARDS" and administer hundreds of users who use outlook. There's a bunch of things Thunderbird can do that Outlook can't. Name one non 365/exchange specific action you can do with Outlook that Thunderbird can't. I'm genuinely curious.
There are pros and cons of each. It's up to the user what they value.

for those who are thinking of purchasing there are other 3rd party sellers (who also sell cd key games) that sell this for a much lower price. use the information responsibly. if you wanna go even crazier/questionable i hear Jack Ma's website has them as well.

In my experience is mainly the refreshed UI/UX. They function in the same way, are compatible, and not a lot of new things. Probably bugs got fixed. If you have 100 bucks to spare, yes, otherwise, save it.

Indigo software is a WAY better deal. Instead of the crappy no-features "student" stripped down version of office, you can get Professional Plus 2019 with everything (Word , Excel, Outlook, Access, Powerpoint, Publisher) for $90:
https://indigosoftwarecompany.com...n-download

OR Professional Plus 2021 with everything (Word , Excel, Outlook, Access, Powerpoint, Publisher) for $135:
https://indigosoftwarecompany.com...n-download

NOTE: You NEED TO USE the 10% off BF/Cyber Monday code indigobfcm10 at checkout to get those prices. If you can't load the pages at those links, you may need to change browsers or disable your adblock software. I had trouble in edge, but they work fine in firefox.

They're a legit licensee and have a 4.8/5 BBB rating. Been around for a long time and are very reliable. I've used them extensively.

Not sure if permitted nor if we have a forum dedicated to it. I'm selling Microsoft Office 2021 for 5 PCs.

Search "what's new in office 2021", then for each prior version back to yours.

E.g. https://www.digitaltrends.com/com...thing-new/

The fundamental word, excel, etc features used by most people, most of the time remains the same. Bold, columns, common functions like sum, etc.

If that's all you use, no, no point.

However, if you come across new features you'd really use in your office work, then yes.

...

Even as a power user, I stopped worrying once I got 2013. I only buy a new version when they change file type (E.g. Xp to 2003 used .doc files, 2007 to 2021 docx), make a big change you the interface (2010), or I buy a new pc and don't have an old license to move.

2010 and newer is pretty much powerful enough - everything and the kitchen sink. They keep adding new features, but I never find a need.

Not stupid for them if they want to profit from it. Why don't you use one of your older home use program $10 key to use Word for your Resume.

Thank you. Turns out after digging through my gmail, I had purchased Office Professional Plus 2016 for $10 through Microsoft's Home Use Program like 6 years ago! I should be okay with 2016 for now.

Why are you linking me this fake news advertisement for mailbird? It is blatantly and demonstrably false in its claims. Its claim that Thunderbird interface is outdated when it is the same 3 pane interface as outlook with the same dark mode functionality is baseless. Its claim that Thunderbird updates and modernization are slow is similarly an outright lie disproved by the publicly available changelog. I can deconstruct it piece by piece but I will instead opt to say that the article is fake and groundless.

Agree. However, Google's version aren't nearly as powerful, particular vs Excel. Equally frustrating that Mac versions of office are purposely gimped by M$.
But I digress.
