MicroSoft Office

[MinnieMe1]

Had to reset my laptop and Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 - en-us was removed.  Microsoft office was purchased on the lap from HP.  THe Envy was a custom build.  Resetting the computer corrected the problem but now I do not have office and would like to know how to get it back.

If you have your Office license key, skip down to the section Microsoft Office - Product and License Information 

No Key?

The advantage of having purchased the computer as a CTO product is that you should have an email that includes the components built into the product and (perhaps in a separate email) any additional purchases in the order.

Our community cannot provide any information on the subject  - we have absolutely no access to internal HP purchase information.  

Options:

You MIGHT be able to get this information from HP, though from what I understand (personal experience plus reading what others have said), contacting HP to have them search for your Office Key information is not likely to work.   This means nothing more than what it says:   "In my experience".

Better (perhaps):  Contact Microsoft Office, provide the necessary information - including proof that you purchased the Office product with the computer - and ask for help.

Contact HP

If you wish to do so, contact HP Technical Support - submit a case, explain the issue, ask if there are options to retrieve the key to your software. 

Personal Opinion:

Do not "bank" on HP having the information available to you - the records will likely include the purchase information but  do may not include reference to the license key.
