Create a simple text file on that same USB drive containing your 25-character product key. Important Installation Warnings
This essay serves as a practical guide on how to "back up" your Office 2013 license by locating, documenting, and safely storing your product key.
Owning Microsoft Office 2013 is an asset, but that asset is intangible without the license key. By using a key finder utility to extract the code and storing that code in a secure, separate location, you ensure that you can reinstall your software regardless of hardware failure. In the digital age, a backup is not just a copy of a file; it is a record of your ownership.
If you purchased the digital download directly from Microsoft, the backup is automatic.
