Hi @david smith

You can still transfer the Word and Excel files to a flash drive even if your Office licenses have expired. Please try following steps:

Step 1: Find the Documents

1. Open Finder on your Mac.
2. Locate the Word and Excel files you want to transfer. They are typically saved in the Documents folder or wherever you’ve been storing them.

Step 2: Copy the Files to a Flash Drive

1. Plug the flash drive into your Mac.
2. In Finder, locate your flash drive under "Locations" in the sidebar.
3. Open the folder on the flash drive where you want to save the documents (or create a new folder if you like).
4. Select the Word and Excel documents you want to transfer.
5. Drag and drop them into the flash drive folder. Alternatively, you can use Cmd + C to copy and Cmd + V to paste the documents onto the flash drive.

Step 3: Eject the Flash Drive Safely

1. Once the files are copied, make sure to eject the flash drive properly by dragging its icon to the trash (which will turn into an eject symbol) or clicking the eject button next to the flash drive in Finder.
