Was able to find a page for purchasing Office 2024 but MS/Copilot indidates the Office 2021 is available for around $150 but I can't find a link to where I can get it.

    From Microsoft, you can only get the most recent version of Outlook which is Outlook 2024. See https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/p/outlook/cfq7ttc0pbmd.

    Getting just one Office application is rather expensive, though. If you need Word, Excel and PowerPoint too, Office Home & Business may be a better option. See https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/p/office-home-business-2024/cfq7ttc0pbm7.

    Both of these one-time payment versions are for one user and one computer (PC or Mac).

    Note that there is also a free version of Outlook, the so-called new Outlook, which replaces Windows Mail. This version can be downloaded from the Microsoft Store. (Keep in mind that the new Outlook has limited capabilities compared to the classic version which is part of Microsoft Office.)

    Hi CalifdaD,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I'm sorry to inform you that Microsoft has discontinued Office 2021 and has launched Office 2024 instead. As a result, Office 2021 is no longer available for purchase on Microsoft Store or Microsoft website. Currently, the only way to obtain Office 2021 might be through some third-party retailers.

    Copilot's database is not up-to-date, and it sometimes cannot provide very accurate responses. The replies from AI are for reference only, and their authenticity still requires verification.

    For now, the only permanent version of the Office suite that includes Outlook and is available for sale is Office Home & Business 2024, which is priced at $249.99:  Office Home & Business 2024 - Microsoft Store

    To my knowledge, some third-party retailers are selling licenses for Office Home & Business 2024 at a price of $150, but I cannot directly name them as it would violate community guidelines. If you really want to purchase an Office license from a third-party retailer, please be cautious of fraud.

    If you have any other questions or want to share more context, please let me know in your reply!

    Best Regards,
