How to activate Office which comes pre-installed with HP 14s. When I first tried, I got error code 0x800704cf, looking into it I found I had connectivity issue. After that I can't activate Office 2019/2021 H&S, instead I get Office 365 in its office apps (like Excel) and it's subscription page.

After that Office software got updated and later I opened OneNote and greeted with the usual sign in box and was taken straight to activate office button and successfully activated OneNote. But I'm still not sure how other Office apps are not activating. Is there any way to activate the pre-installed Office 2019/2021? If yes, please tell me how. Thank you.
