    @Krishna Teja
    According to your description, could you please share us with more information?

    > life time access of Microsoft office with an other antivirus software

    Where did you purchase this Microsoft 365 apps? Or is it pre-installed on the computer？
    Besides, Microsoft 365 apps are not a one-time purchased products, they are a subscription products, such as after 1 year you need to renew Microsoft 365 apps.

    Please go to Contrl Panel > Programs > Programs and Features, check the version of your Microsoft 365 apps.
    It's also recommended to take a screenshot of "Programs and Features" and the interface that shows "buy office".

    Generally, Microsoft 365 apps are activated based on per account.
    If you have activated Microsoft 365 apps successfully before, please make sure the account you logged in is the account bound with Microsoft 365 apps.

    I suggest you log into Services & Subscriptions, then check whether there is Microsoft 365 apps shown on screen.
    If yes, please uninstall Office on your PC, then restart your PC and install the Office from Services & Subscriptions.

    Any updates, please post back.
