    To download and install Microsoft 365 apps like Excel on a new Windows laptop, follow these steps:

    1. On the new laptop, open a web browser and go to https://m365.cloud.microsoft/apps.
    2. Sign in with the Microsoft account that has the Microsoft 365 subscription.
    3. On the Microsoft 365 Apps page, select Install apps (or Install and more → Install Microsoft 365 apps, depending on what is shown).
    4. Select Install. An installer file (usually OfficeSetup.exe) will download.
    5. Open the downloaded OfficeSetup.exe file.
    6. If prompted by User Account Control with “Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?”, choose Yes.
    7. The Microsoft 365 apps (including Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and others included in the subscription) will install. Wait for the installation to complete.
    8. After installation, open an app like Excel. If prompted, sign in with the same Microsoft 365 account to activate the apps.

    If no install option appears after signing in, there may be an issue with the account or license. Use the Need help? section on the page and review the Account questions, or verify that a license is assigned to the account as described in the documentation.
