Similar is the case with the Microsoft Office suite, which is an application package consisting of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access etc. When you purchase the Microsoft Office suite, you will be provided with a product key that has to be entered in order to activate the product. Usually, you will get 30 days of time, to use the product key to register the product. By registering the Office suite, Microsoft ensures that you have a genuine copy with you and that this is not pirated. Unless you use the product key to register the product, the software suite will be locked for use. If that happens, you will have to contact the Microsoft support service to unlock it and regain functionality. So what if you lost the product key or misplaced it somewhere?
