How to transfer Microsoft Office to another computer?

If you have a Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) subscription, you can use Office apps on up to 5 devices at the same time, so you don’t have to close other installations. But if you have a non-subscription version of Office 2019 or Office 2016, you will need to install or activate Office on the new computer (usually by phone) and then deactivate it on the old computer.
To transfer Microsoft Office to a new computer, you must disable it on the old computer.
To activate Office on a new device, you must dial the product activation number.
If you have a Microsoft 365 subscription, you don’t need to deactivate your device.
