I need to reinstall my purchased Microsoft Office program but I cannot find the installation files. Can someone supply a link to the files?

Thank you,

DD

Since Office 2013 isn’t available for direct public download anymore, you can reinstall it is through the Microsoft account that originally redeemed or activated the product key. That’s where your license is stored. Do you still have access to the Microsoft account used when you activated Office 2013? Do you still have the 25 character product key?

    When Office 2013 was supported by Microsoft, there was no requirement to associate the product with a Microsoft account. Therefore, in most cases, you must install Office 2013 using a valid product key and an installation disc.

    As an alternative, you can get a current perpetual license such as Office Home 2024 or Office Home & Business 2024 (only the latter includes classic Outlook). Both of these versions are for one user and one computer (PC or Mac).

    Or you can try open source software such as LibreOffice, whose components (spreadsheet app, word processor, and presentation software) can create files that are fairly compatible with their Microsoft Office counterparts.
