2026-08-24T17:21:59.97+00:00 For a personal Microsoft 365 or Office issue, use either the Get Help app or the Microsoft support contact flow.
- Open Get Help on Windows, or go to the Microsoft support contact experience.
- Enter a short description of the issue.
- If the suggested articles do not solve it, select Contact Support.
- Choose the affected product or service.
- Confirm the category/options shown.
- Select Chat with a support agent in your web browser or request a callback if that option is offered.
In the Get Help app, the contact flow is:
- Select Contact Support when prompted.
- Select the product or service affected.
- Select any additional options, then Confirm.
- Choose a contact method:
- Chat with a support agent in your web browser
- Provide your phone number and a support agent will call you
- Submit a repair request for hardware issues
Contact options depend on hours of operation, product, scenario, and subscription.
For Microsoft 365 for home or a one-time Office purchase, the support pages also direct users to the Contact Us option at the bottom of the page.
