Install Microsoft Office 2010 on multiple computers

installationlicensemicrosoft-office-2010

I bought Office 2010. You can install it on a pc and a laptop. I don't have a laptop, but do my work from my home computer as well. Can I install it on my home computer instead of the laptop?

Best Answer

If you want to keep within the terms of the licence agreement, then no.

It states:

INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.

a. One Copy per Device. You may install one copy of the software on one device. That device is the "licensed device."

b. Licensed Device. You may only use one copy of the software on the licensed device at a time.

c. Portable Device. You may install another copy of the software on a portable device for use by the single primary user of the licensed device.

If you aren't bothered about keeping to your side of the agreement, then there is probably only going to be a problem if Bill Gates gets bored in his retirement and comes round to your house and tries to force you, at gunpoint, to prove that all your licences are legitimate.
