    Hello, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

    1. May I know if your VivoBook came with a pre-installed Office Home 2024 license, or did you purchase the subscription separately?
    2. If you've purchased the subscription separately, did you buy it from the Microsoft Store or a third-party retailer?

    We will be waiting for your reply.

    Thank you for your reply.

    Did you receive the product key separately, or have you checked your purchase documentation, invoice, or email to see if the product key was included there?

    If you are unable to locate the product key in these areas and the license is not registered in your Microsoft account https://account.microsoft.com/services, you will need to contact the seller directly. If the seller cannot be reached, please contact the store support where you purchased the device, such as Amazon or Best Buy.

    Did Asus provide you with steps on how to install and activate the product?

    What appears to go wrong with activation, that is, which error messages do you see?

    Looks like the user don’t have a product key.

    When they open Office apps, it just asks for an activation key.

    Open any office applications, such as Word or Excel.

    Go to File > Account.

    Do you see any message asking you to activate it, or do you see the product information page showing your product details?
