My trusty 11-12 year old W10 HP desktop is in need of replacement. Bought W11 HP S01-pF2011na at reduced price. Can’t do anything until I create an MS Account which I do not want. The work around of no@thankyou.com does not work anymore. Having no choice but to create an a/c, presumably one can still change to a local a/c afterwards?
The old HP has MS 365 (Office) updated 22-11-24 and MS Home & Student 2013 updated 8-11-23. Apparently W11 does not come with anything. Presumably these licences cannot be transferred to the new PC.
All I want are the Word and Outlook email apps.
Microsoft web site Office Home & Student 2021. One off payment £119.99 – ridiculous
Microsoft 365 £59.99 yearly subscription – more ridiculous
On independent web sites: Buy Microsoft Office 2024 for W10/11 £29.99 non-subscription. Not shown on MS Apps web site, so is it really MS?
Your input would be appreciated.
