Hello,

I currently have Microsoft 365 Personal with access to Publisher.

How do I know if the Publisher I use is a PC only version? Will I continue to have access to it after October 2026 without support?

If I downgrade to Microsoft 365 Personal Classic now will I continue to have access to Publisher? If yes, will I have access to it after October 2026 without support?

Many thanks,

Julia

    As far as I know, Microsoft will remove Publisher from all versions of Microsoft 365 (including Classic) in October 2026.

    Publisher is already not included in the 'perpetual license' version Office 2024.

    You'll only be able to continue using Publisher (without support) if you have Microsoft 2021 or earlier.
