MS Office Professional

General_Grant

I would like to instal MS Office Professional (ie to include Outlook) on my laptop and to make a one-off payment not pay a monthly fee.

Where is it best to buy this? Microsoft direct or another site?

[trying a search on MSE didn't get me results, perhaps I didn't use the correct search terms.]

Bought mine for < a fiver from eBay around 6 months ago. You activate code before downloading from microsoft

And if a fiver's too cheap...
£10 Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lifetime-Information-Activation-message-Delivery/dp/B07VXSHCPL/
£100 Groupon. https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/microsoft-office-2019-home-office-windows-1
or £47 for 2016 version https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/org-microsoft-office-2016-windows

I too have an ebay cheapy code - several months on and it's still working fine.

I bought a copy a few months ago for about £25 from a seller who appear near the top in a Google search. It was a download and appears legitimate.

Why not try Libre Office first and see if you like it.
It's free.

There are many freely available email clients. Outlook is aimed at businesses and is overkill for home users.

I have office professional, courtesy of my sister, it comes with a use on 4 computers, I think, my sis, her O.H. and me, that`s why I think people sell the spares.

Well Outlook has worked very well for me for twenty years or so. That's why I would generally prefer to return to using it.

Would you recommend any particular program to receive emails to multi addresses?
