My device was supposed to come with free office 2019,yyet i am unable to redeem it.
When i try to activate it,this message appears:
I followed with the get help option, installed microsoft support and recovery assistant which promptly told me that no office subscription was linked to my account.
I only have one microsoft account and that's what I used to activate this laptop with.
Kindly advice on how to solve this issue

Your solution pretty much lies with Microsoft...
Things that are Microsoft / Office
Microsoft 365 / Microsoft Office are licensed products owned and controlled by Microsoft.
We can help to the extent of providing information to help you understand your options.
Microsoft Office - Product and License Information
Open and Read
Activate Office using the Activation wizard
Includes “Activate after reinstalling or moving Office”
Installation and License Key Options
Some of the ways to “get” Office Software:
- Trial Software that comes with the computer.
An "offer" to try the software, in other words. The license is NOT included in Trial offers.
- Purchase Microsoft Office when you purchase your computer
Look for your license key with your purchase paperwork.
- Receive a “free one year subscription to Office 365 when you purchase the computer (quite rare).
If you have trouble with this exact type of “installed” Office before it has expired,
Contact HP Support for recovery options.
- Purchase Office separately from Microsoft or other merchant.

My device was supposed to come with office.It's got a sticker up front and there's a notification that pops up every few days telling me to acyivate it but doesn't do anything when i click it. Should i contact hp support or microsoft support? Cuz the video on the amazon page says it should get linked along with windows setup
