  2. Office 365 subscription is active
  3. Run the Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant
  4. Deactivate, uninstall, and reinstall Office

Let’s see how to proceed correctly so that you don’t experience any hiccups midway, during the migration process.

If it comes to your notice that your subscription has expired, kindly renew it. You can do this by 2 methods,

  • Renewing online at office.com/renew – it offers the convenience of renewing your Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal subscription either in person or online. You need not visit a store.
  • Renew using a product key that you bought in a store – It’s a 25-character product key, which you can use to renew at office.com/setup. Please note that your Microsoft account can have only one active Office 365 subscription. If you enter more than one product key at office.com/setup, you’re extending the amount of time for that Microsoft account, not increasing the number of Office installs or amount of online storage you get.

After you renew your subscription, try restarting Word. Your problem should be resolved. If not, switch to another method.

3] Run the Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant
