    Hi @Ralph Hutchins

    You can check the AI answer for the steps to install M365 apps. I have added a screenshot for better visualization.

    After finish the installation, you just need to login with the same work account and the apps will be activated.

    If the business subscription includes the desktop Microsoft 365 apps and a license is assigned to the account, install it on the new laptop as follows:

    1. Go to https://m365.cloud.microsoft/apps and sign in with the work or school account.
    2. Select Install apps. If needed, select Apps in the left navigation first, then select Install apps.
    3. If prompted, choose Microsoft 365 apps.
    4. Download the installer.
    5. Open the downloaded file and select Run, Setup, or Save File depending on the browser.
    6. If User Account Control appears, select Yes.
    7. Wait until the message "You're all set! Office is installed now" appears, then select Close.
    8. Open Word, Excel, or another app and sign in with the same work or school account to activate.

    If no install option appears after sign-in, the usual cause is that no Microsoft 365 apps license has been assigned to the account.

    For Microsoft 365 for business, each person can install Microsoft 365 on up to five PCs or Macs.
