Reply interested in your reply to the question about how to copy an old version of Office on to a new computer. I have a similar issue but the copy I have is Office Professional Plus 2013 which I bought when working (now retired). would your previous explanation work for that version as well. I want to change my aging laptop but the desktop I am looking at doesn't have a disc drive.
Cheers Edwin

Welcome to Microsoft Community.
I am a Microsoft user just like you.
Since your new machine does not have provision for CD, you will need to copy Office plus 2010 to a USB drive and install on new machine from the drive.
- Insert Office 2010 CD into a computer with a CDROM and USB ports
- Insert USB drive into the computer as well.
- Open Explorer and browse to the CD ROM
- Select all of the contents and go to Edit > Copy
- Browse to the USB drive in Explorer
- Go to Edit > Paste
- When the copy is done, remove the USB drive and insert USB drive into your new machine.
- Run setup.exe
Remember that Office 2010 is a 1-PC license so you will need to uninstall from your old desktop first.
Please let me know if you need more assistance.
