What type of installation you want (“normal” install vs Click to Run).how you will buy the Product Key used to activate the license.which version of office you want to buy:.When buying Office 2010 you have to make 4 decisions: The last 2 you can re-install at your convenience without talking to MS (ie 5 years down the line when you retire this machine and get a new one). With the first 2 you can get replacement copies from MS, with The purchase receipt (credit card statement), Product Key, and the installation file on CD/DVD. Note: no matter how you buy Office you need to keep "physical" copies of 3 pieces of information. If your brand new computer "melts down" in the hardware warrantee period, it will be replaced, but you will have to BUY anotherĪn additional benefit of the Retail version is that by using the DVD for installation, you completely avoid the possibility of MS “sneaking” the “Click to Run” crapware to you. The "PKC" or Product Key Card is slightly cheaper, but allows installation on only 1 machine and no transfer rights. It allows you to install on 2 or 3 machines at the same time and to transfer the installation when And, it gives you the best set of user rights of the license. In the Retail version you get the Installationĭisk built into exactly the same price you would pay for software only in the online download. When home users and small businesses buy office, it is my personal preference to insist on the Boxed CD "FPP" or Retail license of your choice of the 3 Office bundles.
