All I want is a one time payment. I just want the apps. I don't want to deal with expensive subscriptions.
I don't care about updates, unlimited one drive storage or anything else.
All I want is the exact same experience from my MS XP Word, Excel and PP apps that were bought once and always available for use. No subscription!
When I buy standalone Office 2024 for one PC, it comes with a lifetime/perpetual license. But then Microsoft says that they're going to drop support for that product in 5 years. Do I understand that correctly?
In other words, when they call it a "lifetime" license, they don't mean *my* lifetime, they mean the product's lifetime. (Of course. Duh.) Which is defined as five years.
Technically, I can *run* the software forever, but Microsoft's gonna kill it by pulling all security support. So ... now I get it. Not complaining. Just being clear.
So *now* when I compare standalone vs 365 ... they're *both* subscriptions. $150 for 3 years using Home standalone. Or $300 for 3 years for Personal 365.
Right?
I am trying to purchase office 365 for my personal use, while searching I came across several office 365 product costs between 200 to 700 Rs for lifetime subscription but with a condition that I cannot use my mail id for subscription. Are they legitimate?
Will they support future updates?
