Hi! @ES38, Welcome to the HP Support Community.

Update windows to the latest version.

Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Menu) 

Go to Update and Security - Windows Updates 
 
Also, Please try the steps recommended below.

To resolve this issue, go through the MS Office activation process to get the correct product upgraded.

1. Confirm Windows is activated.
2. Choose any Office program to activate MS Office.
3. Wait until the We're getting things ready is displayed.
