Transferring MS Office from an old computer to a new one

“I just got a new computer with Windows 10. Can I transfer my old MS Office to it?” Microsoft Office has become a staple in the workplace and even at home, and almost everyone uses it. So when we upgrade our operating system, upgrade our hard drive, or get a new computer, we have to reinstall all of our programs on the new computer or new Windows 10. What a hassle! Is there an easier way?

Todo PCTrans Pro is an excellent computer migration tool that can transfer applications like Office 2010, Office 2007, Office 2003, Office 2013, and Adobe to a new computer or laptop. Users can choose the "PC to PC" or "Backup & Restore" option to move essential data and programs to a new computer.

How to activate a transferred version of Microsoft Office

As usual, you would need to move the MS Office to the new computer and then deactivate Office on the old one (possibly uninstalling it), and then reactivate MS Office on the new computer with the key. However, if you have a FPP version of the license, you can copy Office 2010/2013 to another PC without a key. FPP, OEM, and MLK are the three most common types of MS Office licensing. FPP or Full Package Product covers retail boxed versions; only FPP licenses are transferable.
