Hello there guys,
I have bought this new laptop and when I ordered it, it said that it will come with a 1 year free Microsoft Office 365 Subscription and I do not know how to activate it or if its already self activated when I signed in.

Hi @AndreiHerta,
I see from your post that you need information and assistance related to Microsoft office subscription. Don't worry we'll work together to help you find a solution.
As you have mentioned in your post that you have purchased the computer and along with this you have 1-year subscription for Microsoft office 365.
To redeem the subscription offer, you must activate Microsoft Office 365 within six months after activating Windows on your device. Once activated, Microsoft will send an email notifying you when it is time to renew your subscription. You can also sign in to your Microsoft account to see how much time is left on your subscription.
This document describes how to activate Microsoft Office 365 Personal on your HP Stream tablet or notebook.
