Hello

I bought this license from a third party with aproximatly 30 euros. I used the license for about 2 months and its working properly. Can you tell me what the difference is between buying from Microsoft instead of buying cheaper from a 3rd party? Taking into consideration the price difference

Microsoft 365 and Office | Install, redeem, activate | For home | Windows

    Office Pro Plus 2024 is a volume licence version of Office used by large organizations, it is not a genuine consumer licence, I am sorry for the bad news, but that licence will automatically deactivate after some time and you will not be able to reactivate that licence, it is always best to purchase an Office licence directly form Microsoft, that licence is then associated to your Microsoft account as a digital licence and you can re-install Office anytime you need to.

    I know those cheap licences sold online look like a good deal at the time, but after they deactivate, it is just a waste of your money.

    To add to what Dave has said, the seller is the one who is in violation of the license agreement here, by selling Professional Plus as if it was a consumer license. You, the customer, is paying the price, though, because your software will stop working sooner or later.
