HP All-in-One Desktop PC 27-cb1000i (4N1Q9AV)
Microsoft Windows 11
My new HP computer will not allow me to upload my (M/S Home and Office Student 2010, military appreciation (word) program into the PC).  When I get to the Product Key section and enter the first letter ( N ), the system advises that "N is not a key number" and then refuses to go forward.   I presently use the program in the computer I am replacing and wish to load it into this new HP computer.

It is very easy to make a mistake believing you are typing in the right character.
