Find every Office entry

Remove Microsoft 365, Office trials and older Office editions.

3
Restart your PC

Let Windows clear any remaining installation files.

Common questions

A little extra clarity,
right when you need it.

01Should I choose the 32-bit or 64-bit installer?

The download contains both installer folders. After extracting it, most modern Windows PCs should use the 64-bit folder. To confirm, open Settings, select System, then About, and check the System type field.

02Why do I need to remove my existing Office version first?

Older Office or Microsoft 365 installations can conflict with Office 2019 files, shortcuts and licence settings. A clean uninstall reduces the chance of activation errors and duplicated applications.

03What if Office icons remain after uninstalling?

Right-click each remaining Office icon and choose Uninstall. If that does not clear the old installation, use Microsoft’s official manual uninstall instructions linked in Step 1.

04Where do I enter my 25-digit product key?

Open Word or Excel, choose Account, select Change Product Key, then enter your valid 25-character licence key. Close and reopen the app after activation.
