Microsoft Windows and Office WITHOUT a Microsoft account

Microsoft now requires a Microsoft account for the installation of Windows 11, not only in the Home version but also in the Pro version. There are many reasons for setting up such a free account - but there are also reasons against it. We think: everyone should make their own decision.

Normally, a Microsoft account is also required for the activation of Microsoft Office from version 2019 onwards. However, we can currently offer OEM licences Office 2019 Home & Business for around 90 euros that do not require a Microsoft account for activation. The stock should last at least until May 2023.

Besides that, Office 2016 can always be used without a Microsoft account. The Home & Student version with Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote costs just under 25 euros. If you also need Outlook or Access, you pay 20 euros more for each.

You can find a selection of all Office versions here:

Installing Windows 11 without a Microsoft account is difficult, and there is no longer a Windows 11 version that officially does without the Microsoft account. The video shows how to do it anyway.
