how to transfer microsoft office to another computer

If you had installed it on a computer and activated this, then you don't require a key again. As Microsoft activation servers store a digital license after the first activation and this digital license will be used for activations on other installations. It will not ask for product key again.

You will have to first deactivate Office license which was installed on old computer otherwise it will be counted as a license. Hence, if you were allowed installation on one computer, you will not be able to activate on new computer. If your license was for say 5 computer as in case of Office 365 Home, now your validity will be for 4 computers.

Hence, deactivate first and then install and activate.

1. Deactivate your existing installation - https://support.office.com/en-us/article/deactivate-office-365-if-you-see-a-limit-reached-error-767e3560-96ed-4b1c-806d-2fe01c529b1b?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
