Subject: Help Confirm Original Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 Licence
Hello HP Support Community,
I own an HP laptop with the following details:
Model: HP Laptop 15s-fq5xxx
Product Number: 67V53PA#ACJ
Operating System: Windows 11 Home Single Language
The original product listing for my laptop states that Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 was included.
Office worked when I first purchased the laptop, but I can no longer access it. My Microsoft account does not show an Office licence, and Microsoft Store → Library → Included with device says that my device did not come with additional content.
I would like to know:
Was a genuine Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 licence included with this laptop?
If it was included, can I reinstall and activate it without purchasing Office again?
How can I recover the original licence if it is no longer linked to my Microsoft account?
Please guide me through the simplest solution.
Thank you.

Hello Kuroi_Kenshi,
Thank you for your response.
I have already contacted Microsoft Support, but they confirmed that no Office license is associated with my Microsoft account. I have tried several troubleshooting and recovery methods, but I still cannot access Office.
However, Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 was included with my HP laptop when I purchased it, and I remember using Office after setting up the device.
Since Microsoft could not locate my license, I would appreciate HP's help in resolving this issue and recovering the original Office installation and license that came with my laptop.
I have already provided my laptop details in this support thread, so please refer to the existing information.
I hope HP can help me resolve this issue without requiring me to purchase Office again.
Thank you for your support. I look forward to your guidance.
