Hi all
I have lost the product key that I was sent when I purchased this software (which was a special price for employees of the company I work for). Any suggestions (none of the utilities for retrieving product keys that I have tried return the full product key)? Many thanks.

Did you try the magic jelly bean finder (or something named like that)?

My experience has been it authorizes you based on your Microsoft user. If the old machine and new machine are using the same Microsoft user, it works.

I use Belarc Advisor. It returns gobbs of info about the system it is run on, but it also includes ALL Microsoft Keys...Office, Windows, etc.
And, it's free.

Most product key finding software returns the full product key for up to and including Office 2013 but only the last five characters for later versions ...

No worries.
Also, in case you don't know, users of corporate Office 365 can install the Office applications on up to 5 computers, including their home devices.
