    Reinstall Office Professional Plus 2016 from the Microsoft account originally associated with the product key; if the key has never been redeemed, redeem it first at the Office setup page.

    Standard reinstall

    1. Go to https://account.microsoft.com/services.
    2. Sign in with the Microsoft account previously used to redeem or purchase Office.
    3. Locate Office Professional Plus 2016, then select Install.
    4. Open the downloaded installer and select Yes at the Windows permission prompt.
    5. When installation finishes, open Word or Excel and follow the activation prompts. This is the documented reinstall route for an account-linked Office Professional Plus 2016 license.^1^

    If the product key has never been redeemed, go to https://office.com/setup, sign in with a Microsoft account, and enter the 25-character key. This links the license to that account. Then install it from the Services & subscriptions page.

    If Office is not listed in the account

    The correct installer depends on where the license came from:

    • Workplace Discount Program/Home Use Program: Open https://www.microsoft.com/home-use-program/order-history?ocid=cmm3lqm9ryw and enter the work email address used for the original purchase. If no email arrives, check the Microsoft account Services & subscriptions page using a personal Microsoft account, not the work account.^2^
    • Organization or volume-license copy: Contact the organization’s IT administrator. An authorized Volume Licensing administrator can download available products from Microsoft 365 admin center → Billing → Your products → Volume licensing → View downloads and keys. Access requires the appropriate Volume Licensing role.^3^
    • Key rejected or edition not found: Do not download Office from unofficial ISO or software-download sites. The installer must match the key’s licensing channel and edition.

    Office 2016 is no longer supported and receives no extended security updates, so consider moving to a supported Office release after recovering access to your documents.

    Hello Mahmoud Ghorbel,

    Office Professional Plus 2016 used different installers depending on how the license was obtained, so the correct download link depends on its source.

    Please confirm whether the product key came from:

    • A personal Microsoft account purchase
    • Your employer’s Workplace Discount Program/Home Use Program
    • An employer, school, or other organization
    • A computer seller or third-party reseller

    First, sign in at Microsoft account Services & subscriptions. If Office Professional Plus 2016 appears there, select Install.

    If it does not appear, please tell us which source above applies. Do not post the 25-character product key publicly.

    Please also note that Office 2016 reached end of support on October 14, 2025 and no longer receives security updates.
