I purchased Office Professional Plus 2016 via the Home Use Program. I want to install the software on a different machine (MAC), however the link to the product key and installation files no longer works. Furthermore, the product is not showing up in my Microsoft account. I have my original order number. How do I get access to the software I purchased?

    Hi @Aamir Jamil

    The HUP license is limited to use on one computer at a time and limited to the time you are employed with the HUP sponsor.

    I find the references, hope the information could be helpful:

    Get help installing Office through Microsoft Workplace Discount Program

    Install or reinstall Office or Microsoft 365 through Microsoft Workplace Discount Program

    If you still cannot find the key or the installation package, it's recommended to contact Microsoft Support for further assistance.

    Thanks for your understanding.
