However, the below links we provided with the original article still work to download the installer for Office 2016 (this then grabs the Office 2016 setup files on-demand).
Therefore if you want to try out Office for free, you'll need to dip into Office 365 (see above). Obviously post-release, that isn't the case anymore – and there's no trial version of Office 2016. When this article was first published, it was before the release of Office 2016 when you could download a preview version to try for free. If you have any suggestions or if you find that any of these are not working, do let us know.
You will never be charged for downloading these files for backup purposes.
All the files linked are genuine and legal, direct from the developer.If so, use 7-Zip or a similar archive utility to extract the files and run the relevant executable file (usually setup.exe). In some cases the downloaded file will be an IMG format.Some security applications might quarantine setup.exe forcing you to manually whitelist the appropriate files.After you get a Microsoft ID, you will be able to activate the applications should you want to own the products outright with the product key card being the cheapest and usually fastest way of doing it.You will not need a product key to install the application but you will need one to activate the product.To get them to work again would require you to reinstall your Windows operating system – using a restore point or any similar image-based solution is unlikely to work. Once trial versions expire, they will revert back to reduced functionality, essentially becoming file viewers.However, before you proceed, bear the following points in mind: The end.įor the record, there is no Jellybean Keyfinder or variant for OS X because Jellybean works by pulling the keys from the registry, something Mac OS X doesn't have.We've rechecked all the links as of the time of publishing this update to ensure that they're fully working. Just save that file to some external storage, reformat, reinstall and copy it back to the same location. If you aren't intimately familiar with the three libraries in OS X, the one I'm referring to is the one in the root of Macintosh HD, not the one located in the system folder (/System/Library/) or the one in your users folder (~/Library). You can find this in /Library/Preferences. Sounds pretty solid to me, it's the only file left by Office that has anything to do with licensing. However, since I caught this post I'll give you the same advice I would in that subreddit.Ĭopy the file .plist from the old machine to the new one. You are much more likely to get help that way. For future reference, you should ask questions like this in a different subreddit.
